The goal of this special session is to bring together researchers whose interests relate to both algebraic geometry and combinatorics. The focus will be on:
(1) work proved using a mixture of both algebraic geometric and combinatorial methods; or
(2) results/conjectures proved using principally techniques from one of the areas of the above title, but which suggest further work in the other.
Proposed speaker topics include: moduli space of curves, Kazhdan-Lusztig theory, geometry of Schubert varieties, toric varieties, degeneracy loci and determinantal varieties, Groebner geometry, tropical geometry, Schubert calculus, equivariant cohomology for spaces with a torus action and Hilbert schemes.
Our room will have a blackboard and projector, but no computer projector.
Further details will be posted here as they become available. Or you may
contact the organizers Alexander Yong and
Allen Knutson .
