News (mainly polymath related)
Update (Jan 21) j) Polymath11 (?) Tim Gowers’s proposed a polymath project on Frankl’s conjecture. If it will get off the ground we will have (with polymath10) two projects running in parallel which is very nice. (In the comments Jon Awbrey gave … Continue reading
IPAM remote blogging: The Many Facets of Linear Programming
The many facets of Linear Programming Here is an extremely nice paper by Michael Todd from 2001. It gives useful background for many lectures and it can serve as a good base point to examine last decade’s progress. Background post for … Continue reading
