Forschungsseminar Geometrie und Topologie

Winter Term 2019/20

Prof. Dr. Holger Reich - Prof. Dr. Elmar Vogt - Dr. Gabriel Angelini-Knoll


  • Time and place: Tuesday, 16 - 18h, Arnimallee 7, SR 140


Content: Talks by masters and Phd students about ongoing work and selected research topics as well as guest talks.

This winter term our selected research topic will cover the field of chromatic homotopy theory.
The field of chromatic homotopy theory produces a filtration of stable homotopy groups by invoking the deep connection between formal groups and complex cobordism. This perspective provides a better understanding of global phenomena in the stable homotopy category as well as concrete tools for computing stable homotopy groups. This seminar will cover topics such as the theory of complex oriented cohomology theories, formal groups and their deformation theory, moduli stacks, Bousfield localization, generalized Adams spectral sequences, and the chromatic spectral sequence.
