Topology Reading Group Fall 2020
Time: 9 AM to 10 AM on Thursdays
Location: This seminar is being conducted remotely over Zoom
Our goal for this informal seminar is to have a place to share what you're learning about with other topology graduate students. Additionally, we will regularly feature pre-talks for the Boston College Geometry/Topology/Dynamics seminar. Interested in speaking? Email me!
