JongHae Keum, Fake Projective Planes I

B236-1 IBS, Korea, Republic of

     Speaker JongHae Keum KIAS Fake projective planes (abbreviated as FPPs) are 2-dimensional complex manifolds with the same Betti numbers as the projective plane, but not isomorphic to it. FPPs can be uniformized by a complex 2-ball. In other words, they are ball quotients having the minimum possible Betti numbers. The existence of such

Kangjin Han, Secant variety and its singularity I

B266 IBS, Korea, Republic of

     Speaker Kangjin Han DGIST Secant variety (or more generally Join) construction is one of the main methods to construct a new geometric object from the original one in classical algebraic geometry. In this series of talks, we first consider some general facts on secant varieties and then focus on a specific topic, i.e.

Dennis The, A Cartan-theoretic Perspective on (2,3,5)-distributions

B236-1 IBS, Korea, Republic of

     Speaker Dennis The UiT The Arctic University of Norway Generic rank 2 distributions on 5-manifolds, i.e. "(2,3,5)-distributions", are interesting geometric structures arising in the study of non-holonomic systems, underdetermined ODE of Monge type, conformal 5-manifolds with special holonomy, etc. The origins of their study date to Élie Cartan's "5-variables" paper of 1910, where

Daniele Agostini, The Martens-Mumford Theorem and the Green-Lazarsfeld Secant Conjecture

B266 IBS, Korea, Republic of

     Speaker Daniele Agostini Eberhard Karls Universität Tübingen The syzygies of a curve are the algebraic relation amongst the equation defining it. They are an algebraic concept but they have surprising applications to geometry. For example, the Green-Lazarsfeld secant conjecture predicts that the syzygies of a curve of sufficiently high degree are controlled by
