Algebraic Geometry Seminar

The Hilbert scheme of points on affine space
Wednesday, April 21, 2021
4:00-5:00 PM
Virtual Off Campus Location
I will discuss the Hilbert scheme of d points in affine n-space, with some examples. This space has many irreducible components for n at least 3 and has been poorly understood. For n greater than d, we determine the homotopy type of the Hilbert scheme in a range of dimensions. Many questions remain. (Joint with Marc Hoyois, Joachim Jelisiejew, Denis Nardin, Maria Yakerson.) Speaker(s): Burt Totaro (UCLA)
