Speaker: Luca Moci (Jussieu, U Paris 7)

Title: Arithmetic Tutte polynomials and quasi-polynomials


We will introduce two invariants called the arithmetic Tutte polynomial and the
Tutte quasi-polynomial, and we will survey their several applications,
including:

- generalization of graph colorings and flows to cellular complexes of higher
dimension;
- combinatorial and topological invariants of toric arrangements;
- Ehrhart polynomials of zonotopes;
- Hilberts series of some modules related to the vector partition function.

The talk is partially based on joint work of the speaker with Petter Brändén,
Michele D'Adderio and Alex Fink.
