What's New

Peter Beelen will give a talk on Monday June 6 at the 2016 SIAM conference on discrete mathematics in Atlanta, USA.

He will talk about his recent progress, obtained together with postdoc Mrinmoy Datta and Prof. Sudhir Ghorpade from IIT-Bombay, on the determination of the generalized Hamming weights of projective Reed-Muller codes. Knowing these weights helps in finding the answer to a very fundamental question in algebra: “How many solutions can a system of polynomial equations have over a finite field?”
