Prof. Caucher Birkar (Tsinghua University): Integers, singularities and positivity
Abstract: In this talk we will discuss some recent interesting connections between sets of non-negative integers with different kinds of geometries. Starting with a primitive integer vector, we examine certain associated functions and relate the setting to statements in convex, toric, and birational geometries.
You are warmly invited for the reception after the talk. The refreshments will be held in Huxley Common Room.
