 Igor Pak

Igor Pak works in discrete mathematics, including enumerative combinatorics, algebraic combinatorics, polyhedral geometry, and probability and computation on groups. His research page presents these as interconnected subjects and lists lectures on convex polytopes and combinatorial inequalities.^[ref] A common theme is to explain a numerical counting identity through the structure of the objects being counted, such as a bijection, rather than relying only on algebraic manipulation. Polyhedral methods add geometric constraints to those discrete enumeration questions.
