Organized by Mark de Cataldo, Alexander Kirillov, Jr., and Robert Lazarsfeld. Dates: November 18 – 22, 2013   Given a smooth algebraic surface X, the collection of all n-tuples of points on X (or, more precisely, finite subschemes of X of length n) are parametrized by the punctual Hilbert scheme of X. Over the past two decades. … Read more
