This volume consists of surveys on topics to which Bernd Sturmfels has contributed over his mathematical career: invariant theory, Grobner bases, toric ideals and varieties, algebraic methods in discrete and convex optimization, hypergeometric systems, algebraic statistics, likelihood geometry, tropical geometry, chemical reaction networks, numerical methods in algebraic geometry, sums of squares, tropical geometry, tensors, and algebraic vision. Each article gives a gentle introduction to the topic. Many contributions summarize the state of the art in each subject. The volume is perfect for anyone who wishes an entry point to any one of these diverse topics.
