Richard P. Stanley Seminar in Combinatorics: Antichain Codes

SEMINARS: HARVARD-MIT COMBINATORICS

When: May 17, 2023
3:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Where: MIT, Room 2-139
Speaker: Benjamin Gunby - Rutgers University

Let S be a subset of the Boolean cube that is both an antichain and a distance-r code. How large can S be? I will discuss the solution to this problem and its connections with combinatorial proofs of anticoncentration theorems.

Based on joint work with Xiaoyu He, Bhargav Narayanan, and Sam Spiro.
