Nonlinear Algebra

The Nonlinear Algebra group at MiS works on fundamental problems in algebra, geometry and combinatorics that are relevant for nonlinear models. This involves algebraic geometry (complex and real), commutative algebra, combinatorics, polyhedral geometry, and more. On the applications side, we are especially interested in statistics, optimization and the life sciences.

Research

The theory, algorithms, and software of linear algebra are familiar tools across mathematics, the applied sciences, and engineering. This ubiquity of linear algebra masks the fairly recent growth of nonlinear algebra in mathematics and its application. The proliferation of nonlinear methods, notably for systems of multivariate polynomial equations, has been fueled by recent theoretical advances, efficient software, and an increased awareness of these tools. This connects to numerous branches in the mathematical sciences.
