Format

This session will be comprised of 16 20-minute talks on Saturday and Sunday and two 45 minute talks on Friday. The Friday talks (Huneke and Leuschke) are joint talks with the commutative algebra session.

The goal of the session is to feature current research in representation theory and Noetherian rings, as well as related topics.

According to the tentative schedule, the session starts
at 1:40 PM on Friday and ends at 11:30 AM on Sunday.
