Everyone that is interested in the topics is welcome!

Guidelines for preparing the written reports:

Deadline for handing in the written reports is four weeks after the presentation of the talk.
The talks have to be given in English.
The reports have to be written in English and should have a maximal length of 10 pages (11pt). Everything that is treated in the talk should also be documented in the report (including proofs!).
Proofs that are not given in the references have not to be carried out. If only the idea of a proof is mentioned, this is also sufficient for the report. However, possibly missing intermediate steps of given proofs should be carried out.
Citations should refer to the respective book chapter.
