Séminaires : Combinatoire, Optimisation, et Interactions

The purpose of this seminar is to foster exchanges within the CO team of IMJ-PRG, and also with the surrounding scientific community. As such, its range of topics should be quite broad. We initially plan one or two sessions per month.

Ce séminaire a pour but de développer les échanges au sein de l'équipe Combinatoire et Optimisation, et avec la communauté scientifique environnante. Ses thèmes seront donc larges. Nous prévoyons un rythme initial de une à deux séances par mois.

I will discuss some of the beautiful and fruitful interactions between combinatorics and Hodge Theory, from McMullen's work on polytope algebras, to tropical geometry and matroids (and work with Björner and Huh-Katz), to recent work with Papadakis and Petrotou.

[Due to unforeseen circumstances the talk will be given online on Zoom, it will be broadcast in the planned seminar room, you may also ask one of the organizers for the link.]
