Abstract:
The Alon-Jaeger-Tarsi conjecture states that for any finite field F of size at least 4 and any nonsingular matrix A over F there exists a vector x such that neither x nor Ax has a 0 component. In this talk we discuss the proof of this result for |F|>79 and further applications of our method about coset covers and additive bases. Joint work with János Nagy and István Tomon.
