Colleen Robichaux – Deciding Schubert positivity
Speaker: Colleen Robichaux (University of California, Davis) Title: Deciding Schubert positivity Abstract: Schubert coefficients count the number of points in a generic intersection of Schubert varieties. Using the framework of computational complexity, we discuss the problem of determining when a given Schubert coefficient is positive. Then we present an algorithmic solution to the Schubert positivity problem and highlight a connection to Polynomial Identity Testing. This is joint work with Igor Pak.
