Geometry and Algebra of Polyhedra Seminar Tuesdays at 4:30 |
|
The main theme of the GAPS seminar is the geometry and algebra of lattice points in
polyhedra. We plan to begin with covering some of the material of the forthcoming book
Computing the Continuous Discretely by Matthias Beck
and Sinai Robins.
We will also try to incorporate some of the algebro-geometric
topics related to the integer-point enumeration in polyhedra. |
