Rings and Modules Seminar
Thirty-second year

© 1999–2026 Thomas G. Kucera
Last updated: 2026-10-05
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, Fall 2026

Wednesday, 14:30–15:20
Biological Sciences 304
 

Talks are normally 45–50 minutes.

For potential speakers unable to attend at this time, we will always try to find an alternate time.

In the future...
  • We expect to continue the Seminar in Winter/Spring 2027, at a time and location to be arranged later.
  • 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, post-docs, and guests.
  • Volunteers?
