On September 27, 2022, Alexander Clifton from the IBS Discrete Mathematics Group gave a talk on the existence of a monochromatic increasing sequence with all gaps in a fixed set in any coloring of the set of positive integers at the Discrete Math Seminar. The title of his talk was “Ramsey Theory for Diffsequences“.
Sebastian Wiederrecht gave a talk on the minor obstruction to admitting a tree decomposition into graphs each having bounded genus after removing a bounded number of apex vertices at the Discrete Math Seminar
On September 13, 2022, Sebastian Wiederrecht from the IBS Discrete Mathematics Group gave a talk at the Discrete Math Seminar on the minor obstruction to admitting a tree decomposition into graphs each having bounded genus after removing a bounded number of apex vertices and its application to the characterization of minor-closed graph classes admitting efficient algorithms to count perfect matchings. The title of his talk was “Killing a vortex“.
Bjarne Schülke gave a talk on the proof of Frankl’s conjecture on a local version of Katona’s intersection theorem for large instances at the Discrete Math Seminar
On September 6, 2022, Bjarne Schülke from Caltech gave a talk at the Discrete Math Seminar on the proof of Frankl’s conjecture on a local version of Katona’s intersection theorem at the Discrete Math Seminar. The title of his talk was “A local version of Katona’s intersection theorem“.
