Scholar-generated biography
Olivier Bernardi is a researcher in combinatorics, with a focus on enumerative combinatorics and algebraic combinatorics. His work explores connections between combinatorial structures and algebraic methods, particularly through the study of Catalan lattices, triangulations, and planar maps. He has contributed to the understanding of Tutte polynomials, their applications to subgraphs and orientations, and their connections to sandpile models. His research also includes bijections for maps with prescribed degrees and girth, as well as the characterization of Tutte polynomials via combinatorial embeddings. Bernardi's publications often involve bijective counting techniques and algebraic approaches to problems in graph theory and combinatorial geometry.
