PHYS-726: Introduction to Frustrated MagnetismTo provide an introduction to all aspects of the rapidly evolving field of frustrated magnetism:
- New paradigms: spin liquids, spin ice, topological order, ...
- Basic models and methods
- Experi
MATH-479: Linear algebraic groupsThe aim of the course is to give an introduction to linear algebraic groups and to give an insight into a beautiful subject that combines algebraic geometry with group theory.
MATH-613: Abelian varietiesThis will be a basic course on abelian varieties. We will start with the analytic point of view, and then we will pass on to the algebraic one. A basic knowledge of differential geometry and algebraic
MATH-643: Applied l-adic cohomologyIn this course we will describe in numerous examples how methods from l-adic cohomology as developed by Grothendieck, Deligne and Katz can interact with methods from analytic number theory (prime numb
MATH-645: Young Topologists Meeting Mini-CoursesWe expect these mini-courses to equip junior researchers with new tools, techniques, and perspectives for attacking a broad range of questions in their own areas of research while also inspiring stude
MATH-687: Algebraic models for homotopy typesln this course we will develop algebraic and coalgebraic models for homotopy types.
Among other things we will learn about Quillen's and Sullivan's model of rationâl homotopy types and about Mandell's
MATH-679: Group schemesThis is a course about group schemes, with an emphasis on structural theorems for algebraic groups (e.g. Barsotti--Chevalley's theorem). All the basics will be covered towards the proof of such theore
MATH-615: Gaussian free field through random walksIn this lecture series some important objects of random geometry are introduced and studied. In particular, the relation between the Gaussian free field and random walks / Brownian motions is explored
