Number Theory Seminar

The Number Theory Seminar is a 55-minute in-person research seminar, including questions. Talks are suitable for PhD students (including new PhD students) from all fields of number theory.

The seminar is at 15:00 on Mondays (except bank holidays). On seminar days we meet for lunch at 12:30 and coffee at 16:00 in the common room. Seminars are held in B3.02 of the Zeeman building. Sometimes a different room is used, see the entry below.

Colleagues and especially number theory group members are warmly encouraged to suggest speakers by emailing the organisers: Simon Rydin Myerson (term 1), Adam Harper (terms 2-3), Harry Schmidt (all terms).

We kindly remind members that it is polite to the speaker, to come to talks we might not personally expect to be interested in, and in compensation there will be a good audience for the speakers each of us is interested in!

A list of members of the group and research interests is available.
