But the inverse problem is even more interesting: given some numbers, do they have a combinatorial interpretation? I will give a broad survey of this problem, formalize the question in the language of computational complexity, and describe connections to deep results and open problems in algebraic and probabilistic combinatorics.<\/p>\n\n\n\r\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n<\/section>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":146,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"featured_post":"","footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"class_list":["post-3615","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/people.clas.ufl.edu\/boyland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3615","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/people.clas.ufl.edu\/boyland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/people.clas.ufl.edu\/boyland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/people.clas.ufl.edu\/boyland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/146"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/people.clas.ufl.edu\/boyland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3615"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/people.clas.ufl.edu\/boyland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3615\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3805,"href":"https:\/\/people.clas.ufl.edu\/boyland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3615\/revisions\/3805"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/people.clas.ufl.edu\/boyland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3615"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
