Geometry Seminar
The geometry seminar covers a wide range of topics in geometry with particular emphasis on discrete geometry, computational geometry, and algorithmic real algebraic geometry. Many of the speakers are New York area researchers, students, visitors, and postdocs. A seminar talk may report on original research, survey known results, or be almost entirely devoted to an open problem.
You may find an archive of events prior to Summer 2024 here.
Seminar Organizer(s): Joseph Malkevitch, Boris Aronov, and Adam Sheffer
