Rings and Modules Seminar

© 1999–2024 Thomas G. Kucera
Last updated: 2024-03-13
The Rings and Modules Seminar was founded in September of 1995 by G. Krause and T. Kucera.
We meet weekly during the fall and winter academic terms and occasionally during the spring and summer.
We present original research, survey talks, and tutorials on topics of interest.
We are always happy to hear talks by visitors.

The seminar is open to discussion of all aspects of ring theory and module theory,
and any related topics, such as algebraic geometry, or algebraic combinatorics; or even more distantly connected subject areas.
We have a summary of the history of the activities of the seminar from 1995 to date.

We regret to announce the passing of our friend and colleague Guenter Krause, August 29, 2015.
We regret to announce the passing of our friend and occasional contributor to this Seminar,
Dr Susan Roddy, of Brandon University, October 05, 2017.


Schedule of talks, Winter 2024
Tuesday, 13:00-13:50
500A Machray Hall

Talks are normally 45–50 minutes.
We do have the room until 14:15 if needed.
You should let the Coordinator know in advance if you want to use the full 75 minutes.

For potential speakers unable to attend at this time, we can try to schedule a late afternoon seminar.

In the future...
  • We hope to organize occasional talks in May/June.
    Days, times, locations all very flexible.
  • We are always happy to try to find a time for a summer visitor to speak, but we do not expect to have a regular schedule in July and August.
  • There will be talks from our students and guests.
  • Volunteers?
