The Baltimore-Washington Metro Area Differential Geometry Seminar is a new joint seminar between the math departments of University of Maryland College Park, Howard University, and Johns Hopkins University. We meet twice a year, alternating between locations, for a day of talks on various topics in geometry. The next meeting will be held at UMD on December 2, 2016.

The Johns Hopkins-University of Maryland Algebra and Number Theory Day is a day-long meeting held once each semester, featuring speakers on topics in and around the areas of algebra, number theory, algebraic geometry, representation theory, and algebraic topology.

Monday April 11 at 3:00PM in Schafler Auditorium (Bloomberg 272) Prof. Gregory Moore (Rutgers University) Title: d=4, N=2 Field Theory And Physical Mathematics Abstract: I will review some background material on d=4, N=2 field theories, focusing on the quantum states known as “BPS states.” These states have played an important role in the vigorous give-and-take […]

Joaquim Ortega-Cerdà (Universitat de Barcelona) will give Kempf Lectures on Tuesday March 29 (Title: Sampling polynomials in algebraic varieties) and Thursday March 31 (Title: Equidistributing points in a sphere).

4:00-5:00 pm, March 23, 2016 Krieger 205 Gems of Ramanujan and their lasting impact on Mathematics Joint lecture by Fields Medalist Manjul Bhargava and Guggenheim Fellow Ken Ono. Ramanujan’s work has had a truly transformative effect on modern mathematics, and indeed continues to do so as we understand further lines from his letters and notebooks. In this […]

This conference will feature eight one-hour talks, scheduled over the course of two days, given by young researchers whose work suggests potential new directions for algebraic topology, homotopy theory, and related fields.
