Chapter 1 in Cassels and Frohlich.

- Title: Herzog-Kuhl Equations and its Applications - II
Abstract: In these talks, we will see relations between Hilbert series of
a module and its graded Betti numbers. This gives relations between the
graded Betti numbers of a modules which are known as Herzog-Kuhl
equations. As an application, we show that the property of R being
Cohen-Macaulay is characterized by the existence of a pure Cohen-Macaulay
R-module of finite projective dimension.

- Title: Tate Resolutions - II
Abstract: Let S be a Noetherian ring, and R = S/I. It is always possible
to construct a differential graded algebra (DG-algebra) resolution of R
over S due to a result of Tate. If R is the residue field of S, then
Gulliksen proved that such a DG-algebra resolution is minimal. We shall
discuss the construction of the Tate resolution in our talk.

Title: Local Langlands Correspondence in the Archimedean case
Abstract: In this lecture, we will understand the statement of the local
Langlands correspondence in the Archimedean case. This lecture will be
based on the article available here https://www.math.stonybrook.ed

- Title: The Szemeredi-Trotter Theorem (postponed from last week)
Speaker: Venkitesh S.I. (IITB)
Abstract:
Given a finite set of points P in R^2 and a finite family of lines L
in R^2, an incidence is a pair (p,l), where p\in P, l\in L and p is a
point in l.
The Szemeredi-Trotter Theorem states that the number of incidences is
atmost a constant multiple of (|L||P|)^{2/3} + |L| + |P|. We give a
proof by Tao, which uses the method of cell partitions.

- Description:
- Title: Homotopy theory
Abstract: I will give introduce the basic ideas in homotopy theory, along the way
state some classical theorems and if time permits some recent results. The talk
will be expository and will have few or no proofs possibly.
