will speak on

Matroid representation and partial fields

at 11:30am on Tuesday 8th of February in MLR2

Abstract: Partial fields are algebraic objects that resemble fields, except that they may not be closed under addition. They arise extremely naturally in questions of matroid representation, but are of interest in their own right. This talk will be a survey of their history, and will list some open questions. No knowledge of matroid theory will be assumed.

All welcome.
