DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/TGiZ/16/">Tr
 opical degenerations and stable rationality</a>\nby John Christian Ottem (
 University of Oslo) as part of Tropical Geometry in Frankfurt/Zoom TGiF/Z\
 n\n\nAbstract\nI will explain how tropical degenerations and birational sp
 ecialization techniques can be used in rationality problems. In particular
 \, I will apply these techniques to study quartic fivefolds and complete i
 ntersections of a quadric and a cubic in P^6. This is joint work with Joha
 nnes Nicaise.\n
