Welcome back! And I hope everyone had a
relaxing/peaceful/festive/productive holiday break.
I want to give everyone a quick preview of the Analysis and Probability
seminar this semester and ask for volunteers to speak in February (but more
on that later). First off, Joe Chen and I are taking over organizer duties
from Iddo, who is currently enjoying a much deserved sabbatical (ski
vacation). We will not have a talk the first or last week of classes or
during spring break. Here is the schedule so far (talks are still on
Fridays):
January 30
February 6
February 13
February 20
February 27
March 6 - Sabine Jansen (Ruhr-Universität Bochum)
March 13 - David Bate (University of Chicago)
March 27 - Malik Younsi (Stony Brook University)
April 3
April 10
April 17 - Tess Anderson (Brown University)
April 24
Unscheduled - Samuel Wilson (MIT) - sometime in April
As you can see, we have several open slots, especially earlier in the
semester. If anyone local would like to give a talk and can volunteer for
a date in January or February, please let me know. If you have suggestions
for speakers, we would also like to hear them.
Finally, I would like to tentatively propose that we move the seminar
starting time back to 3:00 pm from 3:30 pm. Let me know if you have a
conflict.
All the best,
Matthew
