MATH-488: Topology IV.a -Algebraic K-theoryAlgebraic K-theory, which to any ring R associates a sequence of groups, can be viewed as a theory of linear algebra over an arbitrary ring. We will study in detail the first two of these groups and a
MATH-310: AlgebraThis is an introduction to modern algebra: groups, rings and fields.
MATH-317: Algebra V - Galois theoryGalois theory lies at the interface of Field Theory and Group Theory. It aims to describe the algebraic symmetries of fields. We will focus on Galois theory for finite field extensions and some applic
MATH-417: Number theory II.b - selected topicsThis year's topic is "Additive combinatorics and applications." We will introduce various methods from additive combinatorics, establish the sum-product theorem over finite fields and derive various a
