From algebraic geometry and combinatorics to physics
In the search for mathematical explanations for physical phenomena, algebraic geometry and combinatorics have made surprising appearances.
In this talk, I will overview some exciting results connecting combinatorics and algebraic geometry to water waves (coming from the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation) and to particle physics (coming from scattering amplitudes).
