 Nonlinear algebra is a newly evolving field which borrows ideas from the various core areas of mathematics.
     In this talk, the theoretical and computational aspects of nonlinear algebra emerging from algebraic geometry, tropical geometry, tensor algebra, and semidefinite programming will be briefly discussed and demonstrated with examples.
     This talk is mainly based on the book "Invitation to Nonlinear Algebra" by Mateusz Michalek and Bernd Sturmfels.
