Combinatorial methods have shown to be fundamental in recent advance of Algebraic Geometry, especially in developing algebra-geometrical methods towards applications. The theory of discriminants, tropical geometry and tensor decomposition are just some examples, well highlighted in this conference. The minisymposium will cover a broad range of applications of algebraic-geometrical theories where combinatorial techniques play a fundamental role.
