Conference Talks: 10 Years of Algebra at Lincoln

Conference picture

From 12 to 14 June 2024, the Charlotte Scott Research Centre for Algebra hosted the online conference “10 Years of Algebra at Lincoln“, in the occasion of the retirement (and celebrating the career) of its esteemed Emeritus Director, Prof Evgeny Khukhro. The event also celebrated the 10 years of operation of the School of Mathematics and Physics of the University of Lincoln.

The conference was a global event, gathering world-leading experts in algebra from multiple continents, and was very well attended despite the many time zones. For those who might have missed some talks, most lectures were made available online through Lincoln’s Maths Channel and can be found here in special a playlist:
