MATH-512: Optimization on manifoldsWe develop, analyze and implement numerical algorithms to solve optimization problems of the form min f(x) where x is a point on a smooth manifold. To this end, we first study differential and Riemann
MATH-410: Riemann surfacesThis course is an introduction to the theory of Riemann surfaces. Riemann surfaces naturally appear is mathematics in many different ways: as a result of analytic continuation, as quotients of complex
MATH-328: Algebraic geometry I - CurvesAlgebraic geometry is the common language for many branches of modern research in mathematics. This course gives an introduction to this field by studying algebraic curves and their intersection theor
MATH-494: Topics in arithmetic geometryP-adic numbers are a number theoretic analogue of the real numbers, which interpolate between arithmetics, analysis and geometry. In this course we study their basic properties and give various applic
MATH-422: Introduction to riemannian geometryLa géométrie riemannienne est un (peut-être le) chapitre central de la géométrie différentielle et de la géométriec ontemporaine en général. Le sujet est très riche et ce cours est une modeste introdu
MATH-731: Topics in geometric analysis IThe subject deals with differential geometry and its relation to global analysis, partial differential equations, geometric measure theory and variational principles to name a few.
MATH-731(2): Topics in geometric analysis IIThe goal of this course is to introduce the student to the basic notion of analysis on metric (measure) spaces, quasiconformal mappings, potential theory on metric spaces, etc. The subjects covered wi
MATH-680: Monstrous moonshineThe monstrous moonshine is an unexpected connection between the Monster group and modular functions. In the course we will explain the statement of the conjecture and study the main ideas and concepts
