Ari Shnidman, Temple University
During the spring semester, we will run an "arXiv seminar", with talks on papers from the last five years or so in any area of algebra/number theory. Papers will be exposited over 1-3 talks with the first talks devoted to the background material. This will be a short organizational meeting. We will go over some ground rules and then people can volunteer or request papers/topics. The organizers are happy to help choose a topic and prepare for the talk.
