Title: “Primitive sequence and its relatives”

Abstract: An integer sequence is primitive if none of its member divides another. For example, prime numbers form a primitive sequence. In this talk, I will highlight some personal work related to primitive sequence and its generalizations. It has connection to other areas such as set covering, graphs without certain paths, and longest monotone subsequence. 

The Discrete Math Seminar (DMS) is intended for Kennesaw State faculty working in the various areas of algebra, number theory, and discrete mathematics to get together to discuss their current work or related questions. Seminars often involve advanced mathematical knowledge. However, the seminars are open to anyone who is interested in attending.
