SUMMARY:The Degree of irrationality of hypersurfaces in various Fano varieties
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: David Stapleton\, UC San Diego\n\nThe degree of irrationality of an n-dimensional algebraic variety is the minimal degree of a dominant rational map from the variety to n-dimensional projective space. While of a classical flavor, this invariant has not received much attention in dimension n>1 until recently. In this talk we will …
