Title: Euler Stratifications of Hypersurface Families
Abstract: An Euler stratification is a stratification of a family of projective or very affine varieties according to their topological Euler characteristic. This is relevant in particle physics and algebraic statistics: it fully describes the dependence of the number of master integrals, respectively the maximum likelihood degree, on kinematic or model parameters. In this talk new algorithms are presented to compute such stratifications for hypersurface families.
