TITLE:  Sampling, counting, and local central limit theorems

ABSTRACT: I will describe how local central limit theorems (and 
Fourier-analytic proofs of local central limit theorems) can be used to 
design fast sampling algorithms and deterministic approximate counting 
algorithms for the number of independent sets and matchings of a given 
size in bounded degree graphs.

Joint work with Vishesh Jain, Ashwin Sah, and Mehtaab Sawhney.
