Programme of talks:
It is a seminar at the School of Mathematics of the new merged University of Manchester. Since 1999 and before the merger, it had been a joint seminar of the former UMIST and the "old" University of Manchester (aka Owens College). "Geometry" is understood in the broadest sense. Lectures may be on any topic with some relation however tenuous to geometry/topology, and should begin in a manner that makes the material accessible to mathematicians in general. All are welcome to attend and graduate students are particularly encouraged to do so.
Starting from 2009-2010, it is run in combination with the (previously separate) Geometry and Mathematical Physics Seminar. More details are on the current semester page.
Time: Thursdays 4.15-5.15pm. Geometry and Mathematical Physics Seminar starts at 3pm.
Location: The Frank Adams Room (Room 1.212), the Alan Turing building.
This is the new mathematics building on Upper Brook Street, next to a multi-storey parking garage, opposite the Citroën garage and the former "Welsh Chapel", now partly demolished.
See directions on the MIMS (Manchester Institute of Mathematical Sciences) page.
For the speakers: Related preprints, summaries or informal handouts are welcomed.
For all: Seminar organizers are Hovhannes Khudaverdian and Ted Voronov. Please contact them with any suggestions for future speakers or topics. (Former organizers: Nige Ray, 1999-2007; Kit Dodson, 1999.)
