General Information
In our Kolloquium on algorithmic mathematics and complexity theory, guests and members of the group present current topics about their research.
If you are interested in (some of) the talks you are welcome to join us. To do so, please write an email to Philipp Reichenbach.
For students: Please note that you cannot earn any ECTS!
The Kolloquium usually takes place on Wednesday at 3pm sharp (German time). Our research group meets in MA 316 to follow the talk. Usually, the talks have a hybrid format with an additional Zoom link.

Abstracts
Integral Geometry in Nonarchmidean Spaces
Speaker: Peter Bürgisser
In a recent paper, Kulkarni and Lerario found a version of Poincare's formula of integral geometry for p-adic projective varieties. (SIAM J. Appl. Alg. Geo, 2021). We extend this result in various directions by developing a conceptual framework over nonarchimedan local fields that mirrors the approach over the reals quite closely. As an application, we obtain precise results on the expected number of p-adic zeros of random fewnomials.
The talk describes ongoing work with Kulkarni and Lerario.
