Soohyun Park (Hebrew University of Jerusalem)
Euler characteristic-like invariants and positivity patterns in geometric contexts predicted by combinatorics
Algebra seminar
Time: 3:05PM
Location: 232
We will discuss intrinsic structures and positivity properties of certain Euler characteristic-like invariants which appear in a wide range of contexts in algebraic combinatorics. Note that the positi... More

Benjamin Hennion (University Paris-Saclay (Orsay))
Glueing invariants of Donaldson--Thomas type
Algebra seminar
Time: 8:30AM
Location: Zoom
Donaldson--Thomas invariants are numerical invariants associated to Calabi--Yau varieties. They can be obtained by glueing singularity invariants from local models of a suitable moduli space.

Mark van Hoeik (FSU)
Solving linear recurrence relations in terms of solutions of lower order recurrences
Algebra seminar
Time: 3:05PM
Location: 232
We use difference Galois theory to classify recurrence relations of orders 3 and 4

that are solvable in terms of solutions of recurrence relations of order 2. We also develop

algorithm... More

Amod Agashe (FSU)
The zeros of the Riemann zeta function and its generalization to modular forms
Algebra seminar
Time: 3:05
Location: 232
According to the Riemann hypothesis, the Riemann zeta function should have zeros only at negative even integers and complex numbers with real part ⁠1/2⁠. We will study the completed Riemann zeta f... More

Rok Gregoric (John Hopkins University)
Even periodization
Algebra seminar
Time: 3:05PM
Location: 232
In this talk, I will present work in progress on even periodization. This is an operation on spectral stacks, which roughly approximates them as closely as possible with affines corresponding to even ... More
