Geometry of Matroid Workshop

October 25, 2024 | 2:30pm - 3:30pm

Abstract: Delta-matroids are "type B" or "type C" analogues of matroids. I will discuss how to extend a geometric construction related to matroids to delta-matroids. Using this construction, we prove the ultra log-concavity of the number of...

Geometry of Matroid Workshop

October 25, 2024 | 12:00pm - 1:00pm

Abstract: Grassmannians and flag varieties are important moduli spaces in algebraic geometry. Quiver Grassmannians are generalizations of these spaces arise in representation theory as the moduli spaces of quiver subrepresentations. These represent...
