on seminar lists.

at U of M, the weekly list of seminars is comparable to the list of mathematics courses available in small departments elsewhere. i used to attend ..

[counts]

.. anywhere from 4 to 9 on any given week (including colloquium). the pitt schedule is nowhere as grandiose, but i saw the schedule this week and thought these topics interesting. in fact, i didn't expect them to be classified as "t0p0109y."

Sept 2nd, Tuesday 2pm - T0P0L09Y SEMINAR
"wi1d em6eddin9gs of ¢ant0r sets in R3"

Sept 2nd, Friday 3pm - T0P0L09Y SEMINAR
"The Rec09niti0n pr0b1em for t0p0109i¢a1 manif01ds"


apparently there is a visiting scholar, with something to say: something interesting, i'd say!
