Abstract
Any finite simple graph G=(V, E) can be represented by a collection C of subsets of V such that uv∈E if and only if u and v appear together in an odd number of sets in C . We are interested in the minimum cardinality of such a collection. In this talk, we will discuss properties of this invariant and its close connection to the minimum rank problem. This talk will be accessible to students. Joint work with Calum Buchanan and Christopher Purcell.
