Friedrich Hirzebruch Lecture

Posted in
Location: 
University Club Bonn

The annual Friedrich Hirzebruch Lecture is a series of lectures started in 2007 on the occasion of the 80th birthday of Prof. Friedrich Hirzebruch. The lectures address a general audience and aim at illustrating the relation between mathematics and art, society and other fields.

Location: 
MPIM Lecture Hall

The Oberseminar is a very long running seminar at MPI (‘Ober‘ standing for 'upper'). Its idea is that the guests of the MPI speak in this seminar (hopefully early in their stay) and get the chance to explain their work to the other guests.

Seminar Circle method for Diophantine equations

Tian Wang (MPIM) and Doyon Kim (U Bonn)
Date:

Location: 
MPIM Seminar Room

We are organizing a seminar that aims to offer an introduction to the circle method. Initially developed by Hardy, Littlewood, and Ramanujan, the circle method has been successfully applied to many problems in number theory, including Waring’s problem, Goldbach’s weak conjecture, and estimating the number of partitions. We will follow Davenport's lecture notes* that explains the Hardy-Littlewood circle method with a minimum of fuss by looking at  its applications to Waring's problem.

A seminar about different topics in Mathematical Physics, broadly around Quantum Field Theory, Algebraic Topology and Differential Geometry. Our meetings are hosted by an assigned speaker, who gives an informal introduction to his topic. Alongside, we will have questions from the audience, which typically lead to a lively discussion.

MPIM Seminar Room

We are excited to announce a semester-long reading seminar on the exponential sum over finite fields. Throughout the seminar, participants will delve into the interaction of analytic number theory and arithmetic geometry. Specifically, we will learn Stepanov's “elementary” method to prove Weil’s Conjecture for curves over finite fields. We kindly invite all Ph.D students and postdocs who are interested in this topic.

Seminar description

Sheaves and cohomology are ubiquitous in geometry and topology. The derived category of sheaves on a space, together with the so-called "six functors" (and the various relations between them), form an "enhancement" of the cohomology groups of spaces that provides more insight into the structure behind these cohomology groups (see e.g. [A1]).
