Combinatorics Seminar

Speaker: Vasso Petrotou

Title: Tom & Jerry triples

Abstract: 

Unprojection is a theory due to Reid which constructs and analyses more complicated rings from simpler ones. The talk will be about a new format of unprojection which we call Tom & Jerry triples. As an application we will construct two families of codimension 6 Fano 3-folds in weighted projective space.

We will also give a brief introduction to Macaulay2.
