    * **March 19** \\    **//​Speaker//​**:​ Shane Chern (Dalhousie) \\      **//​Title//​**:​ The Seo-Yee conjecture: Nonmodular infinite products, seaweed algebras, and integer partitions ​ \\ **//​Abstract//​**:​ In this talk, I will present my recent work on the Seo-Yee conjecture, which claims the nonnegativity of coefficients in the expansion of a q-series infinite product. The Seo-Yee conjecture arises from the study of seaweed algebras (a special type of Lie algebra), and is closely tied with the enumeration of the index statistic of integer partitions. Our proof of the Seo-Yee conjecture is built upon the asymptotic analysis for a generic family of nonmodular infinite products near each root of unity. \\    * **March 19** \\    **//​Speaker//​**:​ Shane Chern (Dalhousie) \\      **//​Title//​**:​ The Seo-Yee conjecture: Nonmodular infinite products, seaweed algebras, and integer partitions ​ \\ **//​Abstract//​**:​ In this talk, I will present my recent work on the Seo-Yee conjecture, which claims the nonnegativity of coefficients in the expansion of a q-series infinite product.

The proof relies on understanding the "​location"​ of the roots of these derivatives in complex numbers and in p-adic complex numbers for primes dividing (n+1)n...(n+1-k). I will explain the main ideas of the proof while trying to avoid the rather formidable technical details.\\

There are two main questions that we plan to answer: (1) what are the polynomials $u$ for which $0\in \mathcal{O}_u(r)$,​ and (2) what are the integer polynomials $u$ that satisfies the condition that for each prime number $p$ there is some iteration $m_p$ of $u$ such that $p|u^{(m_p)}(r)$?​ In this talk we will provide partial answer to (1), and a complete answer to (2). \\

The talk will be partially based on my 2005 paper https://​people.math.binghamton.edu/​borisov/​documents/​papers/​quot-fact-rh.pdf and will also include some more recent unpublished considerations. ​\\

Then for which field $K$ is it true that there are infinitely many specializations $t\mapsto t_0\in K$ such that $f(t_0,x)$ is irreducible in $K[x]$? Surprisingly,​ it turns out that $\mathbb{Q}$ and function fields have this property. ​\\ **//Talk 2//** (5:00-5:55)\\  **//​Title//​**: ​Golomb Topology on a Domain ​  \\ **//​Abstract//​**: ​Golomb topology on a domain is a generalization of arithmetic topology on $\mathbb{Z}^+,​$ appearing in Furstenberg'​s proof of the infinitude of primes. This paves way for the otherwise rare examples of countably infinite connected Hausdorff spaces. Following this, I shall conclude with a homeomorphism problem of Golomb topology on Dedekind domains. This talk is based on the 2019 paper by Pete Clark, Noah Lebowitz-Lockard,​ and Paul Pollack http://​alpha.math.uga.edu/​~pete/​CLLP_November_30_2017.pdf ​\\
