Harmony of Gröbner Bases and the Modern Industrial Society

Book excerpt: This volume consists of research papers and expository survey articles presented by the invited speakers of the conference on "Harmony of Grobner Bases and the Modern Industrial Society." Topics include computational commutative algebra, algebraic statistics, algorithms of D-modules and combinatorics. This volume also provides current trends on Grobner bases and will stimulate further development of many research areas surrounding Gr bner bases. Contents: Polyhedral Approach to Statistical Learning Graphical Models; Implementation of a Primary Decomposition Package; Computing Tropical Resultants; Running Markov Chain Without Markov Basis; Incomplete A-Hypergeometric Systems; Degree Bounds for a Minimal Markov Basis for the Three-State Toric Homogeneous Markov Chain Model.
