Monica Conference 2011 - Edge and Cover Ideals

From July 11-13, 2011, there was a workshop on MONomial Ideals, Computations and Applications (MONICA). The conference was held at the CIEM in Castro Urdiales, Spain.

I was one of the main speakers for the conference. My lectures focused on edge and cover ideals, monomials ideas associated to finite simimple graphs.

This webpage contains some resources for the students of the workshop.

• The EdgeIdeal package in Macaualy 2.
  This is the handout given as part of tutorial in the workshop.
  • If you want to see more about the EdgeIdeals package, you might want to see EdgeIdeals: a Macaulay 2 package for (hyper)graphs, a webpage on the package.
  • Here is the Documentation for the EdgeIdeals package.
• Macaulay 2 code used in the tutorial.
• Three lectures on edge and cover ideals (New Version: Feb 13, 2012)
  These are expaned lecture notes of the talks I gave at the worksop.
