We thank the Editors of the Rendiconti for having accepted to dedicate this issue to this topic. The workshop was organized by Ciro Ciliberto, Alex Küronya, Victor Lozovanu and Ste- fano Urbinati with the support of Foundation Compositio Mathematica, INDAM-GNSAGA, GRIFGA, Università degli Studi di Padova and Università degli Studi di Roma “Tor Vergata” and the National Research Project (PRIN) “Geometry of Algebraic Varieties”. The aim of the workshop was to bring together experts in the field of linear systems, Newton–Okounkov bodies and Nagata Conjecture to have a comparison of production in different research directions. There have been about 50 participants, both experts and young researchers in Algebraic Geometry, joining the workshop from all TI - Recent advances in linear series and Newton–Okounkov bodies JO - Rendiconti del Circolo Matematico di Palermo DO - 10.1007/s12215-017-0314-x DA - 2017-06-27 UR - https://www.deepdyve.com/lp/springer-journals/recent-advances-in-linear-series-and-newton-okounkov-bodies-iCsmbPAmIn SP - 159 EP - 160 VL - 66 IS - 2 DP - DeepDyve ER -
