This fall there will be the following seminars with geometric themes:
- the Geometry/Topology Seminar meeting on Mondays, time to be
specified (run jointly by Professsor Stavros Garoufalidis and VIGRE post-doc Tommaso Pacini)
- a working seminar (run jointly by Professor Landsberg and VIGRE post-doc Daniel Fox) on G-structures in algebraic geometry. Meeting day and time to be determined.
- The Informal Geometry Seminar Professor Landsberg will continue to meet at Fridays at 3pm
Every effort will be made to have the first 45 minutes of the talk (before the break) accesible to graduate students, after which those bored and/or
lost can leave gracefully. Already booked are E. Lerman (symplectic geometry, UIUC) 8/22, L. Garcia 8/29 (Virgina Tech, Bayesian networks - this talk may
be of interest to those in graph theory, computer science and bioinformatics), and X. Rong (Rutgers, Riemannian geometry). Additional suggestions for
speakers are most welcome. Abstracts of talks are at the web site above.
Email Professor Landsberg to get on the distribution lists for these seminars.
