Abstract

June Huh found striking connections between algebraic geometry and combinatorics, solved central problems in combinatorics that had remained open for decades, and developed a theory of great importance for both fields. June Huh has been awarded the 2022 Fields Medal `for bringing the ideas of Hodge theory to combinatorics, the proof of the Dowling-Wilson conjecture for geometric lattices, the proof of the Heron-Rota-Welsh conjecture for matroids, the development of the theory of Lorentzian polynomials, and the proof of the strong Mason conjecture.' In this paper I will review some of June Huh's contributions.
