The seminar represents a collaborative effort of commutative algebraists at
Georgia State University and University of South Carolina to increase exposure
of their research area in the South-East through periodic meetings. Each term
GSU and USC organize a regional seminar and a national one. This Spring, GSU
will organize the national seminar. A regional meeting is held in Columbia in January. There
was a national meeting in Columbia, SC in November 2007, see the following webpage. For some of the
past seminars, see the following links Fall 2007,
April 2007, March 2007 or Fall 2006 and earlier.
