Combinatorics and loop models: a review
Probability| Speaker: | Paul Zinn-Justin, Universite Pierre et Marie Curie |
| Location: | 1147 MSB |
| Start time: | Wed, Feb 15 2012, 4:10PM |
We shall review recent developments in the combinatorial interpretation of certain models coming from two-dimensional statistical mechanics, especially loop models. Among the subjects we shall discuss are the Razumov-Stroganov correspondence, the enumeration of Alternating Sign Matrices and the geometry of Orbital Varieties.
