Spring 2022: The Analysis and Geometry of Random Spaces (AGRS)
AGRS Junior Seminar
This is a non-research seminar for postdocs and PhD students. The goal is to learn more about the different questions, objects, main results, and goals within AGRS. At the same time, it gives participants the opportunity to break out of the generic format of research talks. The target audience are non-specialist grad students with only a basic background in AGRS. More information (PDF)
Date and Time: Mondays from 2-2:50pm in the Simons Auditorium. The first talk will be on February 7th, 2022.
Organizers: Annina Iseli (University of California, Los Angeles) & Peter Lin (State University of New York, Stony Brook)
Audience: All postdocs and PhD students of both programs are warmly invited to attend the talks. We kindly ask faculty to not attend the junior seminar.
Recordings of past seminars are available to the community at large.
