Student-Run Research Seminar| Speaker: | Andrew Port |

Symplectic geometry is a powerful and greatly unexplored field. From the exterior algebra to Kaehler manifolds, I'll give basic definitions, intuition and, along the way, a simple proof that no n-sphere (other than 0- or 2-) is a complex projective variety.
