We organize several seminars:

Séminaire "Fables Géométriques".

pre-2017 Battelle Seminar and

Tropical working group Seminar.

Also, you can check how tropical curves (and hypersurfaces, in general) emerge from abelian sandpile models: tropicalsand

Seminar "Fables Géométriques"

Nov 1, 16h15. Room 06-13

Vasily Golyshev (Moscow, Bures-sur-Yvette) Modularity proofs via
fibered motives.

This is a report on joint work with Don Zagier, and joint work in progress with Kilian Bönisch and Albrecht Klemm.

The rigid Calabi-Yau threefolds that appear as conifold fibers in the hypergeometric Landau-Ginzburg models of Fano complete intersection fourfolds in [weighted] projective spaces are expected to be modular, but what is lacking is the construction of actual correspondences with Kuga-Sato threefolds. I will explain how the technique of fibered motives can be used to provide `opportunistic' modularity proofs for such fibers.

If you want to register, say me (Misha Shkolnikov). You should be approved user to edit pages. You can write here something. (Create a small web page about you, write about you interests, explain tropical philosophy of our group, upload articles etc).

Page creating is simple, just add internal link on non-existing page from existing.

For example еуые: .

Google “docuwiki …” to know how to do something if it is not clear.

Send me your nickname and password - to have right to create and edit pages.

Latex support is here. $\int \mathbb C + \prod\limits_{x\to \infty} f^g$
