WAGS aims to build a regional community among algebraic geometers of all career stages, from advanced undergraduates to full professors. The meetings are centered around research talks delivered by leading mathematicians from around the world...

The "ABC algebra workshops" is a series of PIMS-sponsored research workshops on algebra and related topics. Originally designed to bring together researchers from the Universities of Alberta and British Columbia (thus the acronym ABC), these...

A video of this event is available on mathtube.org. A fundamental problem of algebraic geometry is to determine which algebraic varieties are rational, that is, isomorphic to projective space after removing lower-dimensional subvarieties from both...
