Semialgebraic geometry towards applications in learning and transport

      In this session we bring together researchers from different areas working in semialgebraic geometry.
      Semialgebraic geometry is at the heart of applied algebraic geometry and has received lot of attention
      especially for its interaction with polynomial optimization and its applications. One of the main context
      of this interaction is the so-called moment-sums-of-squares hierarchy that is based on the duality between moments
      and positive polynomials over semialgebraic sets. The applications highlighted by this mini-symposium include,
      but are not limited to, learning, transport, dynamical systems, and engineering. The mini-symposium offers a
      selection of these applications and showcases how semialgebraic geometry yields algorithms and pathways,
      both from a purely theoretical and from an applicative viewpoint.
