Richard P. Stanley Seminar in Combinatorics: Sarah Brauner (UPenn)
Sarah Brauner of the University of Pennsylvania speaks at MIT's seminar in combinatorics, named for Richard P. Stanley, the longtime MIT mathematician whose Enumerative Combinatorics is a standard text in the field. Brauner works in algebraic combinatorics, where counting problems meet the representation theory of groups such as the symmetric group, and has written on configuration spaces and Eulerian representations of reflection groups.
