STReTCH Seminar

The Seleted Topics Related To Cubics and Hyperkählers seminar will take place Wednesdays 1:30-2:30 in the HIM lecture hall, with an exceptional meeting 1:00-2:00pm on September 27.

The first goal of the seminar is to understand the construction of Laza-Saccà-Voisin (LSV, https://arxiv.org/abs/1602.05534). The future directions of the semianr will be determined by the interests of the participants --- one possibility is to expose some of the material from the latter section of Huybrechts book on Geometry of Cubic Hypersurfaces.

If you would like to volunteer to speak, please contact the organizers (Jack jack.petok AT dartmouth.edu and Xuqiang qinx AT unc.edu).
