- 3-manifolds Seminar
- Algebra Graduate Student Seminar
We will meet weekly on the summer to discuss
Hartshorne's book Algebraic Geometry
- Algebra Seminar
- Analysis Seminar
This seminar is
intended for talks that will be of interest to a broad range of analysts.
- Bernhard Flury Memorial Lecture Series
- Combinatorics Seminar
- Complex Analysis Seminar
- Departmental Awards
Annual Mathematics Awards Ceremony
- Departmental Colloquium
A forum for expository talks of broad interest
- Differential Geometry Seminar
Topics include, but not limited to: Riemannian, complex, and symplectic geometry; dynamics on manifolds; metric spaces;
curvature controlled topology; minimal submanifolds; PDEs on manifolds.
- Dissipative Systems Seminar
We consider the Navier-Stokes, Kuramoto-Sivashinksy, Camassa-Holm, Lorenz, and other similar equations
which possess absorbing balls in phase space. This is
the minimal ingredient for the existence of a global attractor,
and perhaps an inertial manifold. The focus is on dynamic behavior, though at times fundamental issues such as regularity are discussed.
- Distinguished Lecture Series
- Dynamical systems
Complex and smooth dynamics and ergodic theory.
- Foundations of Computing Seminar
- Functional Analysis Seminar
This seminar will cover topics in functional analysis, operator theory, free probability, and related topics.
- General notions in mathematics
- Geometry
geometry, very broadly construed
- Graduate Student Algebra Seminar
Time / Location to be determined at a later date.
- Graduate Student Differential Equations Seminar
This seminar will serve as a forum for graduate students to present material from
differential equations and related areas; that is to say, there will be a focus on topics
from PDE and ODE theory with perhaps some topics coming from related areas such as
numerical analysis or other applicable mathematics. Students will give talks that may
cover both classical developments as well as more recent breakthroughs.

Organized by Roger Temam and Shouhong Wang.
- Logic Seminar
- Mathematical Finance Seminar

- PDE/Applied Math Seminar
Topics include PDE's, ODE's, applied mathematics, and intersections of PDE's and ODE's with
analysis, geometry and topology.
- Probability and Related Fields Seminar
- Quantum Topology
- Seymour Sherman Memorial Lecture Series
- Stability and instability of multiD fluid structures
Mark Williams
Title: Stability and instability of multiD fluid structures.
The goal of the talk is to give an elementary description of some tools, both classical and recent, that have been useful in studying stability questions for structures like shocks, detonation fronts, and boundary layers. Results will be described informally, since the emphasis will be on understanding methods.
- Teichmueller theory
The Teichmueller space of a differentiable surface S is the space of conformal classes of metrics
on S. The study of Teichmueller spaces has
applications to geometry, topology, and dynamical systems.

This seminar is
about connections among quantum topology, quantum physics and quantum computing. It is related to the topological quantum computing project (see
URL: www.tqc.iu.edu). The topics will be
on various topics relating to topological quantum field theories on both Tuesdays and Thursdays.
- Topology Seminar
research seminar in algebraic and geometric topology
- Topology-Geometry Seminar
This seminar, organized by the topology group, meets on Tuesday and Thursday. Each semester a topic is selected for concentrated study. Past seminars have included gauge theory, the Index Theorem, bordism theory, and surface theory. In recent years Tuesdays have been used for lectures, and Thursdays have been "recitations" at which the lecturer can go over finer details of the work in a question-answer format.
For the fall semester, 2006, we are conducting a survey of the work of John Stallings. Topics will include his work on 3-manifolds, the interplay between 3-manifolds and group theory, homological algebra, and high-dimensional manifolds.
- VIGRE Seminar
A seminar where everyone is invited and encouraged to
participate, including faculty, graduate, and undergraduate students. Professors
in a field are invited to talk about why they became
interested in their research area, the types of research problems they work on,
courses in that area, and whatever else that might be of help to students who may want
to enter their field. (Think of it as a good way learn about different research fields!)
For example, a topology professor might give a lecture on simple knot invariants and talk about the graduate level topology sequence.
