Harvard/MIT Algebraic Geometry Seminar
2002-2003: Tuesdays 3:00-4:00

NEW WEBPAGE

This is an old seminar webpage. The current seminar webpage is here.

The Harvard/MIT Algebraic Geometry Seminar will alternate between MIT (Room 4-370 unless otherwise noted) and Harvard (Room 507) on Tuesdays. For directions to MIT Room 4-370, click here (please note this is a different room from previous semesters). You can see last year's seminars here.
