Title: On Donuts and Quasigraphic matroids
Speaker: Peter Nelson Affiliation: University of Waterloo Room: MC 5417Abstract:
Quasigraphic matroids are graph-like objects that give a common generalization of lift and frame matroids. Donuts are edible topological surfaces. I will talk about a surprising link between these two types of object, assuming no prior knowledge of quasigraphic matroids or donuts.

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is centralized within our Office of Indigenous Relations.
