added Jensen's very recent (Dec 2021) expository article in the Notices of the AMS

As pointed out by others, itIt seems that the question is not clear whatabout the contents of this lecture are.

However, after a quick internet search I did find some older (2018)following lecture notes with the same title written by the same professor: http://math.nsc.ru/conference/g2/g2r2/files/pdf/Lecture-8.pdf

In addition to the papers 1–3 listed above, I consider the following papers to be essential reading on this topic:

  1. Matt Baker, Riemann–Roch for graphs and applications, blog post, 2013. https://mattbaker.blog/2013/10/18/riemann-roch-for-graphs-and-applications/
  2. Kevin Hartnett, Tinkertoy models produce new geometric insights, Quanta Magazine, 2018. https://www.quantamagazine.org/tinkertoy-models-produce-new-geometric-insights-20180905/
  3. Jan Draisma and Alejandro Vargas, On the gonality of metric graphs, Notices of the American Mathematical Society, 68(5):687–695, 2021. https://www.ams.org/journals/notices/202105/rnoti-p687.pdfhttps://doi.org/10.1090/noti2277
  4. David Jensen, Chip firing and algebraic curves, Notices of the American Mathematical Society, 68(11):1875–1881, 2021. https://doi.org/10.1090/noti2378

To get an overview of recent developments in this field, I would suggest to start with the excellent expository article by Jensen (number 15 on the list), followed by the survey by Baker and Jensen (number 9 on the list). After that, either follow the references in those papers that you find interesting, or come back to list and take a look at some of the classics (1–3 and 6–8).
