When: Wednesdays 4pm

Where:Van Vleck B219

Lizzie the OFFICIAL mascot of GAGS!!

Who: YOU!!

Why: The purpose of this seminar is to learn algebraic geometry by giving and listening to talks in a informal setting. Talks are typically accessible to beginning graduate students and take many different forms. Sometimes people present an interesting paper they find. Other times people give a prep talk for the Friday Algebraic Geometry Seminar. Other times people give a series of talks on a topic they have been studying in-depth.

How:If you want to get emails regarding time, place, and talk topics (which are often assigned quite last minute) add yourself to the gags mailing list: gags@lists.math.wisc.edu. The list registration page is here.



Give a talk!

We need volunteers to give talks this semester. If you're interested contact DJ, or just add yourself to the list (though in that case we might move your talk later without your permission). Beginning graduate students are particularly encouraged to give a talk, since it's a great way to get your feet wet with the material.

Title: A^1 homotopy theory and rank-2 vector bundles on smooth affine 3-folds

Abstract: I will introduce the techniques used by Asok and Fasel to classify rank-2 vector bundles on a smooth affine 3-fold (arXiv:1204.0770). The problem itself is interesting, and the solution uses the A^1 homotopy category. My main goal is to make this category seem less bonkers.
