A quick tour of tensor triangular geometry
Friday, 22.4.16, 10:15-11:15, Raum 404, Eckerstr. 1
We shall recall the motivation to study tensor triangulated categories\nthrough the geometric invariant called the "spectrum". We shall then see how some of the well-known classification results due to Hopkins-Smith, Neeman, Thomason, Benson-Carlson-Rickard, and others, can be elegantly expressed using that spectrum. Finally, we shall see how new techniques of separable extensions of tensor-triangulated categories allow to approach new computations of such spectra, thus obtaining new classification results, for instance in equivariant stable homotopy theory.
Automorphism group of projective varieties with a view towards the dynamics
Friday, 29.4.16, 10:15-11:15, Raum 404, Eckerstr. 1
We report our recent results on automorphism groups of normal projective varieties,\nfrom the viewpoints of the minimal model program in birational geometry and the study\nof dynamics.
