“Elliptic quantum groups”
In 1995 G. Felder introduced an elliptic Rmatrix, which satisfies a dynamical version of the YangBaxter equation. The elliptic quantum group of sl(n) is then defined in the same vein as the usual Rmatrices give rise to quantum groups via the RTT formalism of Faddeev, Reshetikhin and Takhtajan.

“Continuous model theory III”
Vaught is a student of Tarski. Many of the early results follow from him. We will see one.

will speak on
In this talk, I will end up our discussion about sheaves on a base by proving how one can glue sheaves. I will then introduce the definition of a scheme, show several motivating examples, and discuss the notion of a spectrum of a ring in the context of schemes.

“Twin primes and the parity problem ”
We relate the twin prime problem to conjectures of Chowla type regarding the Mobius and Liouville functions. This is joint work with Professor Ram Murty.

“Topos Theory V”
We continue chapter 6 of Goldblatt; having developed classical propositional logic and Boolean algebras, we now turn to generalizing logical connectives and semantics to arbitrary topoi.

“Existence and Uniqueness of Moment Maps”
Given a symplectic manifold, we will study under which conditions a Lie group action is guaranteed to admit a moment map. To do this, we will look at Lie algebra cohomology and in particular the Whitehead lemmas.
