Jie Ma (马杰) gave an online talk on the maximum number of edges in a 2-connected graph with no two cycles of the same length at the Virtual Discrete Math Colloquium

On February 10, 2021, Jie Ma (马杰) from the University of Science and Technology of China gave an online talk at the Virtual Discrete Math Colloquium about the resolution of a conjecture of Boros, Caro, Füredi, and Yuster on the maximum number of edges in a 2-connected graph without two cycles of the same length. The title of his talk was “Non-repeated cycle lengths and Sidon sequences“.

Doowon Koh (고두원) gave a talk on the approach to an upper bound of the point-sphere incidences over the finite field from the restriction estimates for cones at the Discrete Math Seminar

On February 9, 2021, Doowon Koh (고두원) from Chungbuk National University gave a talk at the Discrete Math Seminar on the restriction conjecture for the cone in four dimensions and its applications to the upper bound on the point-sphere incidences in the field field setting. The title of his talk was “On the cone restriction conjecture in four dimensions and applications in incidence geometry“.

Yusuke Kobayashi gave an online talk on his algorithm for finding a large subgraph keeping the distance function differs by at most a constant at the Virtual Discrete Math Colloquium

On January 20, 2021, Yusuke Kobayashi (小林 佑輔) from RIMS, Kyoto University gave an online talk at the Virtual Discrete Math Colloquium on the fixed-parameter tractability of the problem of finding a small set X of edges such that for every pair v, w of vertices the distance from v to w in G is at most a constant plus the distance from v to w in G-X. The title of his talk was “An FPT Algorithm for Minimum Additive Spanner Problem“.
