Utah Algebraic Geometry Preprint Seminar (Spring 2023)

This is the website for the Utah AG preprint seminar, organized by Daniel Bragg and Christopher Hacon. This is a weekly reading seminar on recent (~<2 years old) preprints in algebraic geometry. Each week a speaker will choose a paper to present (not written by themselves). You can find the webpage for the previous semester's iteration of the seminar here.

If you would like to be added to the seminar mailing list, send an email to Daniel.

If you would like to be a speaker, email Daniel with your desired time slot and paper. See the schedule below for open times. If you would like to talk but don't have a paper in mind, the organizers will be happy to suggest a paper.

The seminar is scheduled to meet Mondays 3:30-4:30 in LCB 215.
