Algebra Seminar Afternoon

The algebra seminar’s Ruby Jubilee went by very quietly due to the pandemic.  To mark
the occasion now, there will be an algebra seminar talk by Gus, the founder of the
algebra seminar.  This will be followed by two more talks in the afternoon, by Don
Taylor and Bob Howlett, followed by drinks.  

If you intend to join for the celebration after the talks, please register here:
