The Student Tea@11 service is starting this Monday (23rd February) at 11 am in the Common Room. We look forward to welcoming you with fresh cups of coffee, tea, and a variety of biscuits, all served efficiently by one of our student volunteers.
We hope to see many of you there to start us off strong. Can’t make it Monday? No need to worry: we’ll be there Mon-Fri from 11:00 to 11:15 am until the end of Week 9.

Formal integration of derived foliations
Abstract
Frobenius’ theorem in differential geometry asserts that, given a smooth manifold $M,$ every involutive subbundle $E \subset T_M$ determines a decomposition of $M$ into smooth leaves tangent to $E$. I will explain an infinitesimal analogue of this integration phenomenon for suitably nice schemes over coherent base rings, and then discuss an application. This talk is based on joint work with Magidson and Nuiten and ties into the work of Jiaqi Fu.
