Group Scheme Theory

Speaker: Sophie Marques

Location: Warren Weaver Hall 1302

Date: Friday, April 3, 2015, 1 p.m.

Synopsis:

We will give a quick introduction of group scheme theory. In particular, we will try to understand how far we get analogies with usual group theory, which will be in reality a particular case of group scheme theory. We will see that group schemes are hardly understood and full of mysteries.
