Terng Lecture Course: Log-concavity and Matroids
Josephine Yu
9:45am|Simonyi Hall 101

Abstract: Matroids are combinatorial structures that model independence, such as that of edges in a graph and vectors in a linear space. I will introduce the theory of matroids along with their surprising connection to a class of multivariate...

Uhlenbeck Lecture Course: Tropical geometry
Melody Chan
11:30am|Simonyi Hall 101

Abstract: Tropical geometry is a modern degeneration technique in algebraic geometry. Think of it as a very drastic degeneration in which one associates a limiting object to a family of algebraic varieties that is entirely combinatorial.  I will...
