The organizational meeting will take place at 18:00 on Wednesday, March 4, in room 203 of the PDMI. The course's Telegram group is available at https://t.me/+CVvmd4GBvN4zNjBi
Interested participants are also asked to register on the website.

The goal of the lectures is to present Suslin’s celebrated rigidity theorem, its
application for the computation of the algebraic k-theory with finite coefficients for
algebraically closed fields and also some general properties of Jacobians required
for the proof.
Prerequisites:

Algebraic K-theory (e.g. localization and functoriality properties), and basic alge-
braic geometry.
