We welcome all undergraduate/graduate students and faculty to attend topology seminar! Speaker: Reginald Anderson (CMC) Title: Presentations of derived categories Abstract: A modification of the cellular resolution of the diagonal given by Bayer-Popescu-Sturmfels gives a virtual resolution of the diagonal for smooth projective toric varieties and toric Deligne-Mumford stacks which are a global quotient of […]
We welcome all undergraduate/graduate students and faculty to attend topology seminar! Speaker: Will Hoffer (UC Riverside) Title: Tube Formulae for Fractal Snowflakes Abstract: Fractals like the von Koch snowflake have rough boundaries, often having nowhere defined tangent lines/spaces. However, there is a tool useful for probing the edges of such fractals: tubular neighborhoods. In this […]
We welcome all undergraduate/graduate students and faculty to attend topology seminar! Speaker: Orsola Capovilla-Searle (UC Davis) Title: Exact Lagrangian fillings of Legendrian links Abstract: An important problem in contact topology is to understand Legendrian submanifolds; these submanifolds are always tangent to the plane field given by the contact structure. Legendrian links arise as wavefronts in […]
We welcome all undergraduate/graduate students and faculty to attend topology seminar! Speaker: Vijay Higgins (UCLA) Title: Webs and skein algebras Abstract: The Jones polynomial of a link can be computed diagrammatically by using skein relations, which encode the representation theory of SL(2). By considering the vector space spanned by links drawn on a surface and […]
