DESCRIPTION:Tobias Rossmann (NUI Galway)\nOver the past decades\, the stud
 y of zeta functions arising from algebraic counting problems has evolved i
 nto a distinct branch of asymptotic algebra. An appealing feature of this 
 area is that it constitutes a meeting ground for several different mathema
 tical subjects such as algebra\, combinatorics\, geometry\, and logic. The
  first part of my talk will be a (biased) introduction to this area\, in p
 articular to the study of zeta functions enumerating subobjects (e.g. subg
 roups). I will then turn to recent developments surrounding the enumeratio
 n of (linear) orbits of unipotent groups. A key theme will be the developm
 ent of tools for proving the absence or presence of geometric features in 
 (at first glance) unexpected places.
