Speaker: Burt Totaro (UCLA) - Hosted by Stanford University

Abstract:
I will discuss the Hilbert scheme of $d$ points in affine $n$-space, with some examples. This space has many irreducible components for $n$ at least 3 and is poorly understood. Nonetheless, in the limit where $n$ goes to infinity, we show that the Hilbert scheme of $d$ points in infinite affine space has a very simple homotopy type. (...)
