Title:
Sampling the Space Thick Polygons
Speaker:
Abstract:
The theory of thick polygons will be described following which we will briefly review the classical methods of sampling the space of polygons and the limited information about thick polygons that results. Having thus demonstrated the need, we will look carefully at the new methods for sampling the space of thick polygons, describe how it is that one knows they are ergodic, and the review new information and questions that result from their application. In the context of this workshop, one wonders how these new methods can be understood from the Grassmannian or GIT perspective. Considering the elementary steps as operations on the appropriate compactification, how would one characterize their action?
