MATH-436: Homotopical algebraThis course will provide an introduction to model category theory, which is an abstract framework for generalizing homotopy theory beyond topological spaces and continuous maps. We will study numerous examples of model categories and their applications in ...
MATH-506: Topology IV.a - Cohomology ringsSingular cohomology is defined by dualizing the singular chain complex for spaces. We will study its basic properties, see how it acquires a multiplicative structure and becomes a graded commutative algebra. We study an algebraic version, namely group coho ...
MATH-410: Riemann surfacesThis course is an introduction to the theory of Riemann surfaces. Riemann surfaces naturally appear is mathematics in many different ways: as a result of analytic continuation, as quotients of complex domains under discontinuous group actions, as algebraic ...
MATH-497: Topology IV.b - homotopy theoryWe propose an introduction to homotopy theory for topological spaces. We define higher homotopy groups and relate them to homology groups. We introduce (co)fibration sequences, loop spaces, and suspensions. We study long exact sequences. We construct Eilen ...
MATH-323: Topology III - HomologyHomology is one of the most important tools to study topological spaces and it plays an important role in many fields of mathematics. The aim of this course is to introduce this notion, understand its properties and learn how to compute it. There will be m ...

PHYS-431: Quantum field theory IThe goal of the course is to introduce relativistic quantum field theory as the conceptual and mathematical framework describing fundamental interactions. ...
MATH-328: Algebraic geometry I - CurvesAlgebraic geometry is the common language for many branches of modern research in mathematics. This course gives an introduction to this field by studying algebraic curves and their intersection theory. ...
MATH-645: Young Topologists Meeting Mini-CoursesWe expect these mini-courses to equip junior researchers with new tools, techniques, and perspectives for attacking a broad range of questions in their own areas of research while also inspiring students to learn more about ground-breaking advances in pure ...
MATH-679: Group schemesThis is a course about group schemes, with an emphasis on structural theorems for algebraic groups (e.g. Barsotti--Chevalley's theorem). All the basics will be covered towards the proof of such theorem, with an estress on the modern presentation using sche ...
