This workshop aims to highlight recent advances in combinatorial algebraic geometry, introduce early career mathematicians to this vibrant field, and foster a collaborative environment as a means to accelerate research discoveries. We will focus on three interconnected topics that have enjoyed groundbreaking advances in the past few years:
Combinatorial Moduli Spaces
Combinatorial Hodge Theory
Toric Degenerations
The workshop will consist of a mixture of survey talks on the current status of the three themes, and more technical research talks. A session of lightning talks to highlight the work of early career participants will complement the programme. Care will be taken not to overpack the schedule, to allow ample interaction between participants.
The online summer school was aimed at PhD students and postdocs in algebraic geometry. The core activity was three series of talks described in the respective tab. There was lots of time planned for doing exercises. These were complemented by professional development activities.
