Title:Two-coloured lines in finite geometry
Speaker: | Peter Nelson |
Affiliation: | University of Waterloo |
Location: | MC 5501 |
Abstract: Given a colouring of the points of a projective plane, when is it true that every line contains at most two colours? I will discuss recent generalizations of classical results in this area, and a surprising link with a famous question in graph theory.
