Séminaire de Géométrie Algébrique du Bois Marie

In mathematics, the Séminaire de Géométrie Algébrique du Bois Marie (SGA; from French: "Seminar on Algebraic Geometry of Bois Marie") was an influential seminar run by French mathematician Alexander Grothendieck. It was a unique phenomenon of research and publication outside of the main mathematical journals that ran from 1960 to 1969 at the Institut des Hautes Études Scientifiques (IHÉS) near Paris. (The name came from the small wood on the estate in Bures-sur-Yvette where the IHÉS was located from 1962.) The seminar notes were eventually published in twelve volumes, all except one in the Springer Lecture Notes in Mathematics series.
