Topic: Enumerative Geometry and Tevelev Degrees
Abstract: Recently, enumerative geometry has received a lot of attention. In my talk, I will give an overview of this topic and discuss my current work on counting maps from a genus g curve to projective space \mathbb{P}^n.

Topic:- Riesz-Type Sums Involving Real Quadratic $L$-Values
Abstract:- In analytic number theory, summation formulas are often useful for understanding the properties of sequences which grow erratically. We explore Riesz type sums involving class number of real quadratic field. In particular, we extend recent work of Beckwith, Diamantis, Gupta, Rolen, and Thalagoda from harmonic Maass forms to sesquiharmonic Maass forms of weight $1/2$. Our approach adapts a method of Chandrasekharan and Narasimhan, which we apply to a sesquiharmonic Maass form first introduced by Duke, Imamo{\u g}lu, and T\'{o}th. (This is ongoing joint work with Professor Olivia Beckwith)
