Dear colleagues,
It is my pleasure to announce a special HU Colloquium on Monday 9th of December at 13:15
in room 1.013 given by the Fields Medallist Caucher Birkar on
Applications of algebraic geometry
Abstract: Algebraic geometry occupies a central place in
modern mathematics. It has deep connections with various parts of
mathematics. It is also deeply related to mathematical physics and has
found applications in a wide range of topics. In this talk I will
introduce some elements of algebraic geometry and then discuss some
applications.
Caucher Birkar is an iranian-kurdish mathematician who is Professor at the University of Cambridge.
His fundamental contribution to algebraic geometry, in particular to the classification of algebraic varieties have been recognized with several important prizes, culminating with the Fields Medal in 2018.
His talk will be designed for a general audience. Everybody is most welcome.
Best regards,
Gavril Farkas.
