• Guolei Zhong, Dynamical Characterization of Projective Toric Varieties

    B266 IBS, Korea, Republic of
    Complex Geometry Seminar

         Speaker Guolei Zhong IBS-CCG As a fundamental building block of the equivariant minimal model program, the rationally connected variety plays a significant role in the classification of projective varieties admitting non-isomorphic endomorphisms. Twenty years ago, Nakayama confirmed Sato’s conjecture that, a smooth projective rational surface is toric if and only if it admits

  • Ziquan Zhuang, Boundedness of Singularities and Minimal Log Discrepancies of Kollár Components

    on-line
    Algebraic Geometry Seminar

         Speaker Ziquan Zhuang Johns Hopkins U Several years ago, Chi Li introduced the local volume of a klt singularity in his work on K-stability. The local-global analogy between klt singularities and Fano varieties, together with recent study in K-stability lead to the conjecture that klt singularities whose local volumes are bounded away from

  • Benjamin McMillan, The Range of the Killing Operator

    B236-1 IBS, Korea, Republic of
    Complex Geometry Seminar

         Speaker Benjamin McMillan IBS-CCG The Killing operator in (semi) Riemannian geometry has well understood kernel: the infinitesimal symmetries of a given metric. At the next level, the range of the Killing operator can be interpreted as those perturbations of the metric that result from a mere change of coordinates---in contexts like general relativity,

  • Jakub Witaszek, Quasi-F-splittings

    on-line
    Algebraic Geometry Seminar

         Speaker Jakub Witaszek Princeton U What allowed for many developments in algebraic geometry and commutative algebra was a discovery of the notion of a Frobenius splitting, which, briefly speaking, detects how pathological positive characteristic Fano and Calabi-Yau varieties can be. Recently, Yobuko introduced a more general concept, a quasi-F-splitting, which captures much more

  • Jinhyun Park, A Reciprocity Theorem Arising from a Family of Algebraic Curves

    B236-1 IBS, Korea, Republic of
    Complex Geometry Seminar

         Speaker Jinhyun Park KAIST The classical reciprocity theorem, also called the residue theorem, states that the sum of the residues of a rational (meromorphic) differential form on a compact Riemann surface is zero. Its generalization to smooth projective curves over a field is often called the Tate reciprocity theorem. There is a different

  • Jaewoo Jeong, Hankel Index of Smooth Non-ACM Curves of Almost Minimal Degree

    B236-1 IBS, Korea, Republic of
    Complex Geometry Seminar

         Speaker Jaewoo Jeong IBS CCG   The Hankel index of a real variety is a semi-algebraic invariant that quantifies the (structural) difference between nonnegative quadrics and sums of squares on the variety. Note that the Hankel index of a variety is difficult to compute and was computed for just few cases. In 2017,

    B266 IBS, Korea, Republic of
    Algebraic Geometry Seminar

         Speaker Livia Campo KIAS The classification of terminal Fano 3-folds has been tackled from different directions: for instance, using the Minimal Model Program, via explicit Birational Geometry, and via Graded Rings methods. In this talk I would like to introduce the Graded Ring Database - an upper bound to the numerics of Fano
