The next meeting of the Algebra and Logic Seminar will be held on June 9, 2023 (Friday) at 1:00 pm (UTC+3) online in Zoom.

A talk on:

Old and new aspects of the Poincaré-Birkhoff-Witt theorem

will be delivered by Vladimir Dotsenko (Institute for Advanced Mathematical Research (IRMA), University of Strasbourg and CNRS, France).

Abstract.The Poincaré-Birkhoff-Witt theorem on universal enveloping algebras of Lie algebras is a fundamental result in many areas of mathematics: from differential geometry and representation theory to homological algebra and deformation quantization. I shall give a short overview of that result and some of its proofs that emerged in about 120 years since Poincaré published a paper about it, and outline a new proof which perhaps captures its category-theoretic essence in the best way possible. The talk is based on a joint work with Pedro Tamaroff.
