Abstract: Many theoretical and applied problems may be viewed through the lens of enumerative geometry: the area of algebraic geometry concerned with counting geometric objects which satisfy prescribed conditions. Computational enumerative geometry uses computers to study such problems. In this talk, I will showcase instances where numerical algebraic geometry, symbolic algebra, and combinatorics came together to answer questions in various applications, such as optimization, theoretical physics, and mechanism design.
