Velkommen!
It is time for our monthly mingle meeting. Students and employees at the institute will meet up for informal chat.
I will explain how to use the motivic volume formula and toric degenerations to study the rationality problem for complete intersections in Grassmannians, in particular Gr(2,5).
Department seminar. Sebastián Otero is an Assistant Professor of Economics at Columbia University, and a Research Fellow at the Institute of Labor Economics (IZA). He will present the paper "Affirmative Action in Centralized College Admissions Systems" (written with Nano Barahona and Cauê Dobbin).
In this lecture, Professor Henning Kl?ter will discuss visible language in official and unofficial use in Taiwan. While the former reflects more standard language norms, the latter is more varied and playful.
Hélène Ruffieux is a Senior Research Fellow at the MRC Biostatistics Unit, University of Cambridge. She holds a PhD in Mathematics from EPFL, Switzerland. Her research interests broadly lie in the development of Bayesian methods and their application to open problems in biomedicine, with a focus on scalable hierarchical modelling approaches for variable selection, latent structure discovery and network estimation, in high-dimensional or temporal data settings.
Does gender make a difference in translations of ancient texts by women? The question is raised in the open lecture by Teaching Associate Professor Mette Christiansen, University of Copenhagen. She visits STK 8th of April.

The African Anthropology seminar series features Stacey Langwick, Associate Professor at the Department of Anthropology, Cornell University.
We study rationality questions for the Fano schemes of non-maximal linear spaces on a smooth complete intersection X of two quadrics, especially over non-closed fields. We start by showing that they are all geometrically rational. We then ask their rationality over k and analyze in details the case of second maximal linear spaces. In particular, we generalize results of Hassett-Tschinkel and Benoist-Wittenberg when X has odd dimension, and extend work of Hassett-Kollár-Tschinkel when X has even dimension and k = R. This is joint work with Lena Ji.
