Special Seminar: Singularities of polynomials in characteristic 0 and characteristic p
Special Events| Speaker: | Dr. Karl Schwede, Pennsylvania State University |
| Location: | 1147 MSB |
| Start time: | Mon, Jan 27 2014, 4:10PM |
I will discuss the singularities of the zero-locus of a polynomial equation. A particular focus will be payed to comparing different singularities. I will discuss two different approaches to this question: analytic (characteristic zero) and algebraic (positive characteristic).
A Department Tea will follow the Talk in the Alder Room.
