Coinvariant stresses, Lefschetz properties and random complexes
In 1996, Lee translated the notion of stress of bar and joint frameworks to the algebraic notion of inverse systems from commutative algebra. In this talk we apply this connection to introduce the notion of a coinvariant stress, and give a formula for the top coinvariant stress of spheres. We then apply these ideas to generalize a result of Migliore, Miró-Roig and Nagel on the Lefschetz properties of monomial almost complete intersections.

Schubert calculus and the probabilistic intersection ring
I will first present the main ideas of the classical Schubert calculus in connection with enumerative geometry over the complex numbers. A real version of these ideas finds a natural setting in a probabilistic intersections ring, whose construction was recently proposed by Breiding, Bürgisser, Lerario, and Mathis. I will then introduce this probabilistic intersection ring and discuss Schubert calculus in this context.e study scattering equations of hyperplane arrangements from the perspective of combinatorial commutat

Real subrank of order- three tensors
We study the subrank of real order-three tensors and give an upper bound to the subrank of a real tensor given its complex subrank. For several small tensor formats, we investigate the typical subranks. Finally, we consider the tensor associated to componentwise complex multiplication in C^n and show that this tensor has real subrank n - informally, no more than n real scalar multiplications can be carried out using a device that does n complex scalar multiplications.

Unimodular Triangulations and Ehrhart-Negativity for s-Lecture Hall Simplices
Given a sequence of positive integers s = (s_1, ..., s_n), the s-lecture hall simplex is defined as P_n^s = conv{(0, ..., 0), (0, ..., s_n), ..., (s_1, ..., s_n)}. It has been conjectured that for any sequence s, P_n^s admits a unimodular triangulation (UT). In this work, we provide new evidence for this conjecture by proving that if P_n^s admits a UT, then so does P_n^{s'}, where s'=(s_1,...,s_n+1). Additionally, given s = (a, ..., a, a+1)\in \Z^{n} with a\in\Z^+ and n > 4, we show that P_n^s is not Ehrhart positive for sufficiently large a. This is joint work with Martina Juhnke and Germain Poullot.

‘Simplicial complex abstraction for efficient local pattern mining’
We generalize graph-based local pattern mining, which aims to identify subsets of vertices induced by patterns of specific attributes, to simplicial complexes, building on the MINERLSD algorithm for efficient mining. We provide the corresponding generalizations of the graph-based closed pattern case to simplicial complexes, along with a generalization of modularity for simplicial complexes to enable the development of this higher-order pattern mining approach. We illustrate the benefits of the proposed approach through experimentation with several datasets, exploring different parameters, and runtime, and identifying potential use cases.

Edges of Random Symmetric Edge Polytopes
Symmetric edge Polytopes are a nice class of polytopes wildly studied, mainly in a deterministic way. On the other hand random polytopes are mostly defined geometrically rather than combinatorially. We try to study this class of combinatorial polytopes in a probabilistic way and in particular show a central limit theorem for the edges of the SEP. We also explain the necessary tools, so you might be able to use them to proof a central limit theorem for your favorite combinatorial object.

Convex Bodies and Maximum Likelihood Sets
We consider points sampled from a uniform distribution on a convex body in high dimensional real space with unknown location. In this case, the maximum likelihood estimator set is a convex body
containing the true location parameter, and hence has a volume and diameter. We estimate these quantities, in terms of dimension and number of samples, by introducing upper and lower bounds. These bounds are
different depending on the geometry of the convex body. We arrive at our results by employing algebraic, probabilistic and statistical techniques.
