Title: KKM-Type Theory and Intersection Patterns.

Abstract: Recently, progress in the field of topological methods in discrete mathematics has been rapid and has generated a lot of activity with the resolution of major open problems, the emergence of new lines of inquiry, and the development of new tools. In this talk, I’ll introduce the KKM-type theory and its application, the application of Borsuk–Ulam theorem and Tverberg type problems. Some open problems will also be introduced by the end of my talk.
