Theory seminars
Unless indicated otherwise, our common seminars take place on Wednesdays at 1:05 pm (note the time!). Until we have an auditorium in the fourth floor again, seminars take place in the common room of the theory section.
Please let me know if you want to invite anyone for a seminar. For inquiries concerning a particular speaker or talk, you can also directly contact the host.
