Description

Abstract: Given a system of algebraic equations, the most basic question we can ask is about the number of solutions.  This simple question leads to the rich world of enumerative algebraic geometry. 

I will explain how we can use algebraic stacks and equivariant cohomology to answer some basic enumerative questions that had stumped us for a while.
