"Closed Embeddings and Ideal Sheaves"
This week we will use our intuitive idea of closed subschemes in the affine case to develop closed subschemes in general. As with most of the properties of schemes we have considered so far, closed subschemes will be defined in terms of their associated morphisms, in this case closed embeddings. We will also define locally closed embeddings and look at the conditions under which an ideal sheaf of a scheme induces a closed embedding.

"What’s an amplituhedron?”
I'll introduce the amplituhedron, focusing on why the suffix "hedron" is justified.

"Residually small varieties have no more than continuum-sized SIs"
We go over a proof of a result of Taylor's: that, in a countable signature, if a variety K has some bound on the size of its subdirectly irreducible algebras (a so-called "residually small" variety), then in fact this bound is at most the cardinality of the continuum.
