Seminars for the week of January 25, 2010
Colloquium
Thursday, 3:30, in VinH 16Professor Sam Payne
of Clay Mathematics Inst. and Stanford Univ.
will speak on
"Nonarchimedean algebraic geometry" The usual norm on the complex numbers and its associated
analytic geometry (holomorphic functions and differential forms) have been
fundamental tools for understanding the geometry and topology of com-
plex algebraic varieties since the beginnings of the subject. Nonarchimedean
norms, such as the p-adic norm on the rational numbers, also have an as-
sociated analytic geometry which has been used in number theory, but is
just beginning to be applied in other areas of mathematics, such as algebraic
geometry and dynamical systems. This talk will be an introduction to nonar-
chimedean geometry with an explanation of its combinatorial manifestation
in tropical geometry and relations to intersection theory.
