Title : Algebraic cycles and its applications
Speaker : Kalyan Banerjee, Harish-Chandra Research Institute, Allahabad
Date : Monday, July 8, 2019
Time : 2:00 PM
Venue : Emmy Noether Seminar Room, ICTS Campus, Bangalore
Abstract : The theory of algebraic cycles is very much important and interesting in algebraic geometry, for the study of geometric properties of algebraic varieties. In this talk we will recall this notion of algebraic cycles and we will show how different geometric phenomena can be interpreted in terms of algebraic cycles. An important application is to try to detect non-rationality of algebraic varieties in terms of algebraic cycles.
