Computer Science/Discrete Mathematics Seminar II

The Method of Hypergraph Containers
Wojciech Samotij
10:30am|Simonyi Hall 101 and Remote Access

The method of hypergraph containers is a widely-applicable technique in probabilistic combinatorics. The method enables one to gain control over the independent sets of many `interesting' hypergraphs by exploiting the fact that these sets exhibit a...

Joint PU/IAS Number Theory

Ax-Schanuel and Exceptional Integrability
Jonathan Pila
3:00pm|*Princeton University, Fine 214*

In joint work with Jacob Tsimerman we study when the primitive of a given algebraic function can be constructed using primitives from some given finite set of algebraic functions, their inverses, algebraic functions, and composition. When the given...
