Richard P. Stanley Seminar in Combinatorics: New perspectives on tropical intersection theory

SEMINARS: HARVARD-MIT COMBINATORICS

When: April 17, 2024
4:15 pm - 5:15 pm
Where: Science Center 232
Speaker: Dustin Ross - SFSU

Tropical intersection theory aims to create analogues of intersection-theoretic tools from algebraic geometry in a piecewise-linear setting. In this talk, I’ll describe a few aspects of tropical intersection theory and discuss how these ideas can be used to build bridges between algebraic geometry, combinatorics, and convex geometry.
