Title

Permutohedral Complexes and Curves With Cyclic Action Rescheduled due to Atmospheric River

Abstract

There is a beautiful combinatorial and geometric story connecting a polytope known as the permutohedron, the algebra of the symmetric group, and the geometry of a particular moduli space of curves first studied by Losev and Manin. I will describe these three worlds and their connection to one another, and then I will discuss joint work with C. Damiolini, D. Huang, S. Li, and R. Ramadas that generalizes the story by introducing a new family of polytopal complexes and relating it to a new family of moduli spaces.
