Online Seminars

All face-to-face meetings are currently suspended due to the Coronavirus outbreak. In their place, a number of online algebraic geometry seminars have sprung up. On this page we hope to maintain an up-to-date list of online seminars that run on a regular schedule, along with details of how to connect to them. Seminars are organised by geographic region, along with an "International" category for those that defy such classification. All times listed are British Summer Time (UTC+01:00).

UK | Rest of Europe | North America | South America | Asia | International

If you organise a seminar and would like us to add it to this list, please email Alan Thompson (A.M.Thompson (at) lboro.ac.uk) with the details.

A list of upcoming online mathematics seminars, in calendar format, may also be found at mathseminars.org (link below). One may filter this list by topic to obtain just the algebraic geometry talks. The mathseminars.org list also contains many one-off and special event talks that are not listed here.
