Tropical linear incidence geometry, Lorentzian polynomials, and linear series

May 4 at 3pm

At East Hall

Burns Park, Ann Arbor

🎓Expect technical depth and Q&A
📐Topics span geometry, combinatorics, and algebra

Tropical linear spaces behave in delightfully unexpected ways. This dissertation defense explores their quirky incidence geometry, introduces relative Dressians as geometric tools, and connects the dots to Lorentzian polynomials and hyperfield Grassmannians. A deep dive for the mathematically curious.
