Topics
This workshop will be centered on recent advances in graph rigidity and interactions between rigidity, algebraic statistics, and matroid theory. Three major advances are the recent resolution of the matroid maximality conjecture, the newly developed link to maximum likelihood estimation in Gaussian graphical models, and the recent positive resolution of Lovasz and Yemini's connectivity conjecture for generic rigidity. The workshop will showcase a diverse sample of current work addressing fundamental problems in graph rigidity, algebraic matroids, and algebraic statistics.
