Joey Yu Luo
Geometric proof of Hurwitz class number relation
In this talk I will introduce the Hurwitz class number relation, and give a geometric proof using the modular curves over complex number. The main ingredients are different perspective of elliptic curves. First year graduate students who are interested in number theory are welcome.

Eiki Norizuki
Mass Formula
I will talk about a nice result by Serre which can be seen as counting the totally ramified extensions of a local field by an appropriate weight. By easy computations, one can arrive at analogous mass formulas for other extensions from Serre's mass formula. I will mention how it relates to other problems in number theory.
