Abstract: The talk is not really at the normal level of this seminar; it is closer to the Graduate Algebraic Geometry Seminar. My goal is to sketch the basics of representation theory of groups, especially finite groups. While this is partially covered in algebra courses, I would like to do it from a slightly different point of view, with the focus on representations themselves rather than on their characters. The talk is aimed at people who already know definitions and general ideas, but I will not assume much beyond that. | Abstract: The talk is not really at the normal level of this seminar; it is closer to the Graduate Algebraic Geometry Seminar.

Algebra and Algebraic Geometry Mailing List
- Please join the AGS mailing list by sending an email to ags+join@g-groups.wisc.edu to hear about upcoming seminars, lunches, and other algebraic geometry events in the department (it is possible you must be on a math department computer to use this link).
COVID-19 Update
As a result of Covid-19, the seminar for this semester will be a mix of virtual and in-person talks. The default Zoom link for the seminar is https://uwmadison.zoom.us/j/9502605167 (sometimes we will have to use a different meeting link, if Michael K cannot host that day).

Title: Representations of finite groups February 18
Abstract: The talk is not really at the normal level of this seminar; it is closer to the Graduate Algebraic Geometry Seminar. My goal is to sketch the basics of representation theory of groups, especially finite groups. While this is partially covered in algebra courses, I would like to do it from a slightly different point of view, with the focus on representations themselves rather than on their characters. The talk is aimed at people who already know definitions and general ideas, but I will not assume much beyond that.

Title: Cartier duality February 25
Abstract: My goal is to introduce the Cartier duality (for commutative algebraic groups). If time permits, I will discuss the Contou-Carrère duality: an example of Cartier dual groups arising in local class field theory.
This is an introductory talk aimed at graduate students. The talk is related to, but mostly independent from, the course on algebraic groups; the only thing I plan to use from the course is the notion of a Hopf algebra.
