Geometry & Topology Seminar

On Lang’s conjectures

Erwan Rousseau (Universite d’Aix-Marseille)

Thursday 6 Apr 12:00–13:00 in Carslaw 535A.

Please join us for lunch after the talk!

Abstract: We will present some conjectures of Serge Lang, claiming that the geometry of subvarieties of a given complex projective manifold is governed by the positivity properties of its canonical bundle, and describe some recent examples where they can be established.
