Structure of Course
== Structure of Course ==
Our reading group will meet three times a week (Mon-Wed-Fri) to discuss the material amongst ourselves, and once a week (Thu) to discuss the material with faculty members.  Typically we have a visit from some combination of [http://www.math.wisc.edu/~ellenber Jordan], [http://www.math.wisc.edu/~brownda David], [http://www.math.wisc.edu/~andreic Andrei] and [http://www.math.wisc.edu/~mehrotra Sukhendu].  Registered students are also expected to turn in homework each week.


== Homework ==
Doing exercises is very important in mastering this material. Ravi's notes contain many, many exercises. It's up to you to choose which problems to hand in. Ravi suggests that you choose a varied selection of problems that are personally interesting to you. You should hand in '''6 written up exercises''' each Wednesday, starting September 8th. LaTeX'ing your solution is '''strongly''' recommended. Ask another grad student if you need help learning TeX.


We'll collect homework at our meeting, and distribute it to the grader. In fairness to our grader, no late homework will be accepted.


Responsibilities of Discusssion Leaders
I encourage you to '''work together'''. You can email [mailto:agrc@math.wisc.edu agrc@math.wisc.edu] to contact the whole reading group to schedule problem solving sessions/ask questions/etc.


Discussion leaders are responsible for leading a full week of seminars. In the previous week DL's should:

1. Check Ravi's [http://math216.wordpress.com blog]. Remeber that notes are posted every two weeks. Get a feel for what we are discussing. A new set of notes? Finishing the previous set?
2. Get comfortable with editing the wiki. We aim to have a page devoted for each chapter in Ravi's notes. The discussion leader is responsible for posting any comments, questions, and other thoughts in the wiki. Ask Lalit or David for help.
