Title: Local positivity in terms of Newton--Okounkov bodies

Speaker: Alex Küronya (Johann-Wolfgang-Goethe Universität Frankfurt)

Abstract: The main theme of the talk is positivity of line bundles at a given point on a projective variety.  After discussing the definition of local positivity and how to measure it, we explain a way to describe local positivity in terms of Newton-Okounkov bodies.  If time permits, we present some applications to abelian surfaces.
