Events

Christine Eagles, Department of Pure Mathematics, University of Waterloo

"Canonical Basis Property"

We will be reading "Rings of finite Morley rank without the CBP" by Loesch and Palacin. This talk will continue a construction of a ring of finite Morley rank without the CBP. 

MC 5479

Sean Monahan, Department of Pure Mathematics, University of Waterloo

"Normal schemes and what-not"

We’ll discuss what makes a scheme “normal”, and in the event that your scheme is weird we’ll see how to “normalize” it. I plan to discuss other related concepts; maybe regularity and local factoriality.

MC 5403

Valentina Harizanov, George Washington University

"Cohesive Powers of Computable Structures"

Luke MacLean, Department of Pure Mathematics, University of Waterloo

Notions of Complexity Within Computable Structure Theory

"This talk will broadly cover three notions of measuring complexity within computable structure theory"

Nolan Pyott, Department of Pure Mathematics, University of Waterloo

"Generalized GCDs as Applications of Vojta’s Conjecture"

Talk #1 (1:00pm–2:30pm)

Paul Cusson

"When is a closed parallelizable manifold a homogeneous space?"

Moshe Kamensky, Ben-Gurion University

"Higher internal covers"

In model theory, internality is a relationship between definable sets that entails the existence of a definable Galois group, with definable Galois correspondence. It can be formulated as an equivalence between certain expansion of a theory T (internal covers) and groupoids definable in that theory. I will describe a partial generalisation of this correspondence to higher dimensions.

"Hitchin pairs on higher-dimensional manifolds"

Organizational Meeting

We will discuss the format of the seminar and potential goals for the semester.
