"Interpolation and duality in algebras of multipliers"
Rahim Moosa, Department of Pure Mathematics, University of Waterloo
"Dynamics on the Berkovich line II"
I will continue to discuss how algebraic dynamics on the affine or projective line extend to the Berkovich line. My aim is still Theorem 4.7 of Jonsson's notes.

"Kleene's $\mathcal{O}$"
A computable ordinal is one that corresponds to the order type of some computable linear well ordering. It can be shown that these are a subset of the countable ordinals, but there is still an issue on how to name these ordinals. We would like a system of notation that allows us to compare two arbitrary ordinals.

"Convolution of values of the Lerch zeta-function"

"NIP XIV"
We continue section 4.2 of Simon's Guide to NIP theories.

We will begin discussing Frobenius algebras.

"The topology of the moduli space of curves"
The moduli space of curves is a remarkable space with connections to algebraic geometry, complex analysis, differential geometry, and low-dimensional topology. I'll give an elementary introduction to it and discuss some recent work on its topology.

"Kleene's $\mathcal{O}$"
Kleene's $\mathcal{O}$ is a system for ordinal notation used in computability theory that relates the concepts of constructive and computable ordinals. This notation allows one to unambiguously perform transfinite induction on ordinals by ensuring that there is a unique representation for each ordinal.
We will prove some properties about the notation system and show that there are ordinals which are not computable.

In the half part, we will complete the leftover on the generators and relations. Then we will setup for Frobenius algebras. Finally, we will go-ahead to the algebra structure.

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is centralized within our Office of Indigenous Relations.
