Stanford Algebraic Geometry Seminar 2009-2010


Fridays 4-5 pm in 383-N in fall 2009 (notice temporary new time to accommodate number theory!)


Click on the title to see the abstract (if available). For more information, please contact Jun Li (jli), Sam Payne (sampayne), or Ravi Vakil (vakil).


The two other Stanford seminars in the subject are the Algebraic Geometry Progress Seminar and the Student Algebraic Geometry Seminar.


Informal Lunch:  Some algebraic geometers meet informally for lunch (bring your own) from 12-1 on Wednesday's in the common room on the second floor.  Everyone is welcome, including students and those with tangential interests in algebraic geometry.
