Title: Large matroids: asymptotic enumeration
| Speaker: | Jorn van der Pol |
| Affiliation: | University of Waterloo |
| Room: | MC 5501 |
Abstract:
How many matroids are there on a ground set of a given size? Although the question is a very basic one, we only know the answer up to a constant factor in the exponent.
Title: Coloring Graphs of Bounded Maximum Degree with Small Clique Number
| Speaker: | Tom Kelly |
| Affiliation: | University of Waterloo |
| Room: | MC 5479 |
Abstract: Greedy coloring yields an upper bound on the chromatic number $\chi$ of $\Delta+1$ for graphs of maximum degree at most $\Delta$, which is tight for cliques.

Title: Transversals in covers of graphs
| Speaker: | Krystal Guo |
| Affiliation: | Université Libre de Bruxelles |
| Room: | MC 5501 |
Abstract:
We study a polynomial with connections to correspondence colouring (also known as DP-colouring) and the Unique Games Conjecture.
Waterloo graduate student David Qian, under the guidance of the Faculty of Mathematics’ Ricardo Fukasawa and Jochen Koenemann, introduced optimization techniques based on integer and dynamic programming to surgeons at SickKids hospital. By applying mathematical optimization algorithms, Qian and team advised doctors on the best surgical cut points to minimize the volume-difference between the surgically modified skull, and an ideal skull.
