First talk: Etale Maps and the Algebraic Fundamental Group |
ABSTRACT: The concepts of etale maps, etale morphisms, and etale extensions of commutative rings are very interrelated and are basic in the extension of covering space theory to algebraic geometry. In the first lecture we will consider the topological fundamental group as an automorphism of a functor and in the second we will explain the concept of etale algebra extension. In the fifth and sixth lectures we will survey Grothendieck's algebraic fundamental group.

Second talk: Introduction to Sheaf Theory and Schemes
ABSTRACT: Schemes are the basic objects in algebraic geometry, and their structure is formulated in terms of sheaf theory. A basic introduction to sheaf theory is included in this discussion. |
