NTSGrad Spring 2019

Graduate Student Number Theory / Representation Theory Seminar, University of Wisconsin – Madison

• When: Tuesdays, 2:30 PM – 3:30 PM
• Where: B113 Van Vleck

The purpose of this seminar is to have a talk on each Tuesday by a graduate student to help orient ourselves for the Number Theory Seminar talk on the following Thursday. These talks are generally aimed at beginning graduate students, and try to explain some of the background, terminology, and ideas for the Thursday talk.
