Seminar Details

Combinatorics So Easy My Undergrads Can Do It

  • Start Date: March 2, 2022
  • Event Start Time: 12:15 PM
  • Event End Time: 1:15 PM
  • Seminar Series: Graduate Combinatorics Seminar
  • Presenter(s): Brian Pinsky - Rutgers University
  • Event Location: Mathematics Graduate Student Lounge -- 7th Floor | Rutgers University | Hill Center | Mathematics Department
  • Presentation Type: Stand Alone Presentation
  • Abstract:

    In this well prepared talk about material specifically chosen for a GCS audience, I will cover results that I could (hypothetically) have covered with my 461 students. These include various applications of Konig's lemma/compactness (tools for generalizing finite results to infinite ones). I'll even define a couple things you may not have heard of, like unfriendly graph colorings and the paris harrington theorem.
