Title: Traveling, Combinatorial Optimization and Matroids

Abstract: Do you like traveling? How great would it be to travel around the world while polluting and spending as little as possible?

In this seminar, I will show how certain combinatorial optimization techniques can help model (and solve) this and many other types of problems.

I will also present how these techniques are closely linked to matroid theory, combinatorial structures that appear increasingly frequently in mathematics, with often surprising results.
