Working Seminar in Geometry

The seminar typically meets Tuesdays, 2:00 - 3:30 p.m., in Milner 317.

Date Time	Location	Speaker	Title – click for abstract
01/24 2:15pm	Miln 317	JM Landsberg TAMU	*Plethysm and differential geometry I* In this lecture series I will first describe what is known about decomposing the space polynomials on the space of homogeneous polynomials, S^k(S^dC^n) as a GL_n-module. I will then focus on Manivel's work which describes asymptotic properties of the decomposition using differential geometry of jet bundles.
01/31 2:15pm	Miln 317	JM Landsberg TAMU	*Plethysm and differential geometry II* This talk will be completely independent of part I, I will explain how Plethysm can be studied via Jet bundles, following Manivel.

02/14 2:15pm	M 317	Colleen Robles TAMU	*Riemann Surfaces 1* A series of elementary lectures on Riemann surfaces. The tentative plan is to discuss: Examples: smooth projective curves, tori, hyperelliptic surfaces. Monodromy. Meromorphic functions and 1-forms, and divisors. Riemannian-Roch and applications. ** Abel's Theorem.
