The meeting will be held in GB412 from 2:00-3:00 on Wednesday, October 28. In the talk recent results about decompositions of finite dimensional algebras will be discussed. Relations to other (interesting) computational problems, such as factorization of polynomials, will be emphasized. Wayne promises to try hard not to bury us all in algebra. Please remember that no background in the area is assumed; feel free to come and ask lots of questions.
