Synthetic Seminar: Synthetic Modular Forms and Computations
This is the website for the Synthetic Seminar: Synthetic Modular Forms, tentatively starting in April.
The goal of the seminar is to understand Carrick-Davies-van Nigtevecht’s synthetic modular forms computations. The canonical reference is van Nigtevecht’s PhD thesis.
Prerequisites for the seminar are a background in stable homotopy theory and familiarity with stacks and sheaf cohomology.
There’s supposed to be a Discord server for the seminar. To be added, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Amartya.
We’ll meet over Zoom, with the exact schedule TBD. Feel free to reach out to Amartya for the Zoom link.
