The next session of the Geometry Seminar of ICMS will be held on Wednesday, November 27, 2024, at 4:00 pm, in room 403 and via Zoom. A talk on: Tropical compactifications of moduli spaces will be delivered by Lionel Lanf, International Center of Mathematical Sciences (ICMS - Sofia). Abstract:In this talk I will describe various tropical compactifications of the moduli spaces of curves. I will discuss some motivations and applications coming from tropical geometry (joint with M. Melo, J. Rau and F. Viviani). Zoom link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/83740034721?pwd=VnBtcVpGUktscHQ4a09jZkNZTURyZz09
