vsOPT: a Virtual Seminar on Optimization and Related Areas

The talks will take place on Fridays at 1PM (Boston time) via Zoom (at least, for now). Please feel free to join us from anywhere!

The password for the meeting will be sent through the seminar mailing list, the day before the talk. We need to do this due to MIT's rules regarding Zoombombing.

The format is as regular MIT talks (45 minutes + 5 for questions), starting at 1:05pm and ending at 1:55pm.

All talks will be recorded, and eventually posted on this website (usually the following day).
