A Meeting in Honor of Juan Migliore: May 16 - 19, 2016
With this edition of the Midwest Algebra and Geometry Meeting we will honor and celebrate Juan Migliore on the occasion of his sixtieth birthday. The topics of the conference are recent advances in Commutative Algebra and its interaction with Algebraic Geometry, with particular emphasis on liaison theory, Hilbert functions, characteristic p methods, multiplicity theory, multiplier ideals, free resolutions, and local cohomology.

There will be a poster session to give junior mathematicians and graduate students an opportunity to present their work.
Junior mathematicians and graduate students are particularly encouraged to participate, as well as mathematicians from traditionally underrepresented groups and faculty of undergraduate institutions. Click here to register for the conference. The deadline for being considered for financial support is March 1, 2016.
This conference is supported in part by the University of Notre Dame, the Center for Mathematics at the University of Notre Dame, and the National Science Foundation (NSF) through the Algebra and Geometry Meetings in the Midwest grant (NSF DMS-1446115).
