• Harry Richman, Distinguishing graphs with tropical Weierstrass weights

    Room B332 IBS (기초과학연구원)

    I will introduce a new structure on finite graphs, which takes the form of a labeling of the vertices by nonnegative integers (possibly repeated). This labeling is isomorphism invariant, and seems to reflect some mix of local and global structure of the graph. I will describe an algorithm for computing these labels, which uses a

  • Stefan Weltge, The relaxation complexity of the standard simplex is logarithmic

    Room B332 IBS (기초과학연구원)

    For a set $X$ of integer points, the relaxation complexity $\operatorname{rc}(X)$ is the smallest number of facets of any polyhedron P whose integer points are precisely those of X. In this paper, we focus on the case where X is the discrete standard simplex $\Delta_d = \{0, e_1, ..., e_d\}$. We show that $\operatorname{rc}(\Delta_d) =

  • Ting-Wei Chao, The Oddtown Problem Modulo a Composite Number

    Room B332 IBS (기초과학연구원)

    A family of sets in $$ is called an $\ell$-Oddtown if the sizes of all sets are not divisible by $\ell$, but the sizes of pairwise intersections are divisible by $\ell$. The problem was completely solved when $\ell$ is a prime via an elegant linear algebraic method, showing that the family has size at most
