Workshop on Matrix Factorizations – Reading Course


Reading Course: Matrix Factorizations

In preparation for the Workshop on Matrix Factorizations the BIREP group will hold a seminar on the topic. It is a continuation of the seminar held at the beginning of the semester (which focused on Yoshino's book).

The seminar takes place every Wednesday at 16:15, and some Fridays. It meets in V5-227.

Possible topics of the seminar are here. See also the references page of the workshop.
