DESCRIPTION:Summary \n\nAJ FONG\, UNIVERSITY OF WATERLOO\n\nThe Markov equa
 tion and birational geometry\n\nWe will briefly talk about the basics on t
 he Markov equation and its\nsolutions\, and producing Hirzebruch--Jung con

SUMMARY:Graduate Student Colloquium
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:Summary \n\nFRANCISCO VILLACIS\, UNIVERSITY OF WATERLOO\n\nA De
 ep Dive into Mathematicians’ Questionable Outfits\n\nBeing able to prove
  the most impressive theorems and having a good\nsense of fashion need not
  be mutually exclusive - except it might be?\nThis will be up to you to ju
 dge in this talk. Together\, we’ll apply\nthe most unscientific of metho
 dologies to create a tier list of\nmathematicians based solely on their dr
 essing style - from Euclid’s\ntimeless toga to Grothendieck’s \"I’ve
  been living in a forest for\nfive years\" aesthetic. Be sure to bring you
 r best outfits\, otherwise\nyou might end up in a bored grad student's tie
 r list one day.\n\nMC 5479\n\n(snacks from 4:00pm)\n

SUMMARY:Differential Geometry Working Seminar
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:Summary \n\nALEX PAWELKO\, UNIVERSITY OF WATERLOO\n\nThe Formal
  Kaehler Structure of the G2 Knot Space\n\nWe will explore the usual suspe
 cts of the moduli space of knots\nembeddable in a G2 manifold\, based upon
  the work of Brylinski for the\nanalogous space corresponding to the 3-dim
 ensional cross product. This\ngives an infinite-dimensional \"formally Kae
 hler\" manifold\, which one\ncan consider Kaehler reduction on. If time pe
 rmits\, we will gesture\nvaguely at considerations from gauge theory and g
 eometric quantization\nthat motivate many interesting questions in the cas
 e of G2 manifolds.\n\nMC 5403\n

  groups\, moment maps and cohomogeneity one special Lagrangians\nin C^m\n
 \nWe will discuss the relationship between symmetries and moment maps as\n
 explained in arXiv:math/0008021 and how this allows us to construct\ncohom
 ogeneity one special Lagrangians in C^m. Time permitting\, we will\ndiscus
 s some examples of SL m-folds in C^m.\n\nMC 5403\n

SUMMARY:Differential Geometry Working Seminar
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:Summary \n\nJUSTIN FUS\, UNIVERSITY OF WATERLOO\n\nThe KKS Form
  and Symplectic Geometry of Coadjoint Orbits\n\nA compact Lie group acts o
 n its Lie algebra dual via the coadjoint\nrepresentation. In this talk\, w
 e will explore how the coadjoint orbits\nof this representation carry a na
 tural symplectic structure called the\nKirillov-Kostant-Souriau (KKS) form
 . The KKS form is preserved by the\naction. If time permits\, we will show
  that there is a moment map for\nthe action that coincides with the inclus
 ion map of the orbit. A\nworked example for SU(2) will be performed.\n\nMC

SUMMARY:Algebraic geometry working seminar
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:Summary \n\nJIAHUI HUANG\, UNIVERSITY OF WATERLOO\n\nMotivic in
 tegration for schemes\, DM stacks\, and Artin stacks.\n\nWe give an overvi
 ew of motivic integration and its generalization to\nstacks. Early motivat
 ions for motivic integration involve singularity\ntheory and the monodromy
  conjecture. We will explain how the change of\nvariable formula works\, a
 nd how it generalizes to the stack case.\nMotivic integration for stacks w
 ill use twisted or warped arcs\, and we\nshall give a summary of the const
 ruction of the twisted arc space for\nDM stacks.\n\nMC 5403\n

SUMMARY:Student Number Theory Seminar

DESCRIPTION:Summary \n\nZHENCHAO GE\, UNIVERSITY OF WATERLOO\n\nAn additive
  property for product sets in finite fields.\n\nLagrange's Four Square The
 orem states that every natural number can be\nwritten as a sum of four squ
 ares\, i.e. squares form an additive basis\nof order 4. Cauchy observed th
 at in a finite field F with q elements\,\nsquares form an additive basis o
 f order 2. Bourgain further\ngeneralized the problem and proved that for a
 ny subset A in F\, writing\nAA={aa': a\,a'∈ A}\, we have 3AA=F whenever 
 |A|>q^{3/4}. \n\nIn general\, for subsets A\,B in F with |A||B|>q\, one m
 ight ask that how\nmany copies of AB are enough to cover the entire space?
  The current\nrecord of this problem is due to Glibichuk and Rudnev. Using
  basic\nFourier analysis tools\, they achieved 10AB=F unconditionally and 
 8AB=F\nassuming symmetry (or anti-symmetry).\n\nIn this talk\, we will (ho
 pefully) go through the paper of Glibichuk\nand Rudnev.\n\nMC 5417\n
