Focused Research: Tropical Geometry of Coexter Matroids

12 Sep 2023, by ablahatherell in Sponsored events

20 – 24 November 2023

Department of Mathematics, The University of Manchester, UK


The aim of this workshop was to extend correspondences between matroids and tropical Plücker equations to other Coxeter groups. Explicitly, we aimed to 1) via representation theory of Lie groups, define tropical Plücker equations of any Coxeter group, and 2) show solutions to these equations induce a subdivision of the Coxeter matroid polytope into smaller Coxeter matroid polytopes, and vice versa.
