We especially welcome all undergraduates and graduate students to attend topology seminar! Speaker: Morgan Weiler (University of California, Riverside) Title: Anchored symplectic embeddings and 2-parameter persistence Abstract: Symplectic geometry is a generalization of classical mechanics, in which position and momentum coordinates are paired. In two dimensions, symplectic geometry is equivalent to volume-preserving geometry, but in […]

The Claremont Topology Seminar, with funding from Pitzer College and the NSF, is pleased to sponsor the N+12th Southern California Topology Colloquium (SCTC). SCTC is a one-day conference primarily attended […]
We especially welcome all undergraduates and graduate students to attend topology seminar! Speaker: Iris Yoon (Wesleyan University) Title: Dowker duality, profunctors, and spectral sequences Abstract: I will present three short, new proofs of Dowker duality using various poset fiber lemmas. I will introduce modifications of joins and products of simplicial complexes called relational join and […]

We especially welcome all undergraduates and graduate students to attend topology seminar! Speaker: Sierra Knavel (Georgia Tech) Title: Betti Numbers and Indecomposability of Genus-2 Lefschetz Fibrations Abstract: Symplectic 4-manifolds, smooth 4-manifolds equipped with a closed, nondegenerate 2-form, arise naturally in classical mechanics and have become central objects of study in topology. Following foundational work by […]
