Seminar Event

Results for Algebraic Geometry events from 2018-07-01 to 2019-06-30
Future or past events may be found by using the Search tab above.

The seminar normally meets from 4:00 to about 5:20 pm. We encourage speakers to make the first half of the talk expository and introductory in nature, so that this part of the seminar will be accessible to graduate students and postdocs in other fields. Details and technicalities are welcome (but not required!) in the second half.
