What is... the field with one element?

This page hosts information on Laura Hinsch's talk "What is … the field with one element?" at the "What is … ?" seminar series.

Abstract

The field with one element is a recurring legend. In this talk I will try to explain where the idea came from, what it could be, what it might be and what it cannot be.
