Boundedness of fibred K-trivial varieties RG
In Spring 2026 we are organising a reading group on the boundedness of K-trivial varieties following the recent article Boundedness of some fibred $K$-trivial varieties .
We meet every week on Wednesday at 10:30 am in Aula L at the Dipartimento di Matematica G. Castelnuovo.
