Description:
Date and Time: 19 June 2020, 6:30 pm IST - 7:30 pm IST (joining time : 6:15 pm IST - 6:30 pm IST) Google meet link: https://meet.google.com/gkc-hydx-fkn Speaker: Madhav Nori, University of Chicago. Title: Intersection multiplicities. Abstract: Bezout's theorem states that projective curves of degrees a and b meet in ab points if ''counted properly''. The correct number to count at a point of intersection is the intersection-multiplicity defined in Serre's book ''Local Algebra and Intersection-Multiplicity''. The talk, meant for graduate students, will be an introduction to the subject. The definitions will be looked at from various angles. This will be followed by a report on the progress towards Serre's conjectures.
