Representation theory and Algebraic Geometry seminar' reading group.
Speaker: Suraj Panigrahy
Here are the details:
DDT: Tuesday, 26th April, 2:30 – 3:45 pm
Venue : Lecture hall 215, Department of mathematics.
Title: Bezout's Theorem
Abstract: Named after Étienne Bézout, The Bezout's Theorem states that in
the Complex Projective Plane two polynomials curves(without any common
factors) intetsect at atmost mn points(counting multiplicity), where m, n
are the degrees of the two polynomials.
To prove this result, we will see basics of Algebraic Geometry and/or
Projective Geometry.
We have now a dedicated website where one can find the notes and resources
from the past meets and announcements of the upcoming meetings:

Next two weeks there is an ATM school on Intersection theory happening at
IIT.
For the same, we will not have talks in our seminar during this period.
Please join us today !

Description:
Title: A Gentle Survey of Class Groups.
Speaker: Dipendra Prasad.
Time: 5pm, Wednesday, 27 April, 2022.
Venue: Ramanujan Hall, Mathematics Department.
Abstract: We survey various aspects of class groups of number fields,
concluding with Cohen-Lenstra heuristics. These are heuristics regarding
the distribution of class groups.
