Random and Arithmetic Structures in Topology Seminars
RAS Research Seminar
Mondays 9:00-11:00 am Pacific Time, beginning September 14, 2020Organizers: Alessandra Iozzi and Nicholas Miller
This is one of the research seminars for the RAS program, that distinguishes itself from the postdocs and program associates seminars in that speakers are chosen among Research Members, Research Professors with occasional outside speakers.
