• The Geometry of Fair Division 

      [SNAP-2023-007-EN] Frick, Florian (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2023-12-30)
      How can we fairly divide a necklace with various types of beads? We use this problem as a motivating example to explain how geometry naturally appears in solutions of non-geometric problems. The strategy we develop to solve ...
    • Geproci Sets: a New Perspective in Algebraic Geometry 

      [SNAP-2023-008-EN] Chiantini, Luca; Harbourne, Brian (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2023-12-30)
      Geproci sets arise from applying the perspective of inverse scattering problems to algebraic geometry. Analogous to the reconstruction of an object from multiple X-ray images, we aim at a classification of sets with certain ...
