Extremal combinatorics meets finite geometry

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This project aims to investigate important open problems lying at the intersection of two areas of mathematics, extremal combinatorics and finite geometry. The project will focus on the area of discrete mathematics, which has been at the centre of some of recent developments in mathematics and computer science. This project proposes new methods, derived from algebra, geometry and computer science, to tackle important extremal problems in finite geometry. The project will provide answers to a number of open problems in extremal combinatorics and finite geometry. Moreover, new methods will be developed which will have an interdisciplinary impact.
