Algebraic Geometry Seminar
Logarithmic geometry and some applications
Mattia Talpo,
Post Doc,

I will mostly talk about motivations and basics of logarithmic geometry, and some of its applications to moduli theory and enumerative geometry. Towards the end I will describe two objects (the "Kato-Nakayama space" and the "infinite root stack") that encode the "log" part of the geometry in more familiar context, and I will present a comparison result between these two incarnations (joint work with D. Carchedi, S. Scherotzke and N. Sibilla).
