Geometry and Topology

Time: 15:30
Room: MC 107
Speaker: Nikon Kurnosov (University of Georgia)
Title: Algebra and geometry of hyperkahler manifolds

Hyperkahler manifolds are complex manifolds with a trivial canonical class. They are interesting both for algebraic and differential geometers. I would like to discuss some compact examples, and their geometry as well as the structure of their cohomology ring.
