Description
Convex geometry has played a role in matroid theory for at least fifty years, while toric and tropical geometry have been more recent contributors. Results over the last decade have highlighted the power of various geometric or geometrically inspired techniques in matroid theory. I will survey some recent progress in this direction, with the aim of strengthening connections with other aspects of matroid theory.
