| - | The purpose is to encourage students studying geometry/topology and related areas to engage in beneficial interactions and increase knowledge of important and basic ideas in topology and geometry, in addition to learning about currently active areas of investigation. Furthermore, this seminar is meant to prepare graduate students at Davis to give research and job talks at other universities by providing opportunities to practice giving talks. We especially encourage you to give a talk if you haven't had much practice presenting math. | + | The purpose is to encourage students studying geometry/topology and related areas to engage in beneficial interactions and increase knowledge of important and basic ideas in topology and geometry, in addition to learning about currently active areas of investigation. Furthermore, this seminar is meant to prepare graduate students at Davis to give research and job talks at other universities by providing opportunities to practice giving talks.
