Number Theory Seminar - Alexandros Konstantinou
15:00 - 16:00 11 March 2025
Speaker: Alexandros Konstantinou Title: The order of the Tate--Shafarevich group modulo squares Abstract: We present a method for decomposing abelian varieties up to isogeny using group actions. As an application, we show that given a square-free natural number n, there exists an abelian variety with...

Manchester Geometry Seminar - Alexander Veselov
15:00 - 16:00 10 March 2025
Speaker: Dr Alexander Veselov (Loughborough) Title: Differential algebra of polytopes and inversion formulas Abstract: For any formal power series, the coefficients of its compositional inverse are certain polynomials in the coefficients of the original power series. Remarkably these polynomials can...
