Riemann's Theta Functions Today

Theta functions play a central role in various branches of mathematics. In this talk, we will showcase their significance in algebraic geometry, particularly in studying complex algebraic curves with applications in soliton equations. We will explore how these applications can address the Schottky problem, a classical geometry problem, thereby spotting a mutually enriching relationship. An emphasis will be on exploiting current trends in computational algebraic geometry to advance our understanding of these functions, encompassing both symbolic and numerical computational approaches.

Hybrid talk.
