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-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 ...
MATH-436: Topology V.a - 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-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-473: Complex manifoldsThe goal of this course is to help students learn the basic theory of complex manifolds and Hodge theory. ...
MATH-667: Quivers and quantum algebrasWe will survey state of the art research on quantum algebras that arise from quivers. Our guiding examples will be quantum loop groups associated to symmetric Cartan matrices, but we will also seek to understand the general theory, where many open results ...
MATH-494: Topics in arithmetic geometryP-adic numbers are a number theoretic analogue of the real numbers, which interpolate between arithmetics, analysis and geometry. In this course we study their basic properties and give various applications, notably we will prove rationality of the Weil Ze ...
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-687: Algebraic models for homotopy typesln this course we will develop algebraic and coalgebraic models for homotopy types.
Among other things we will learn about Quillen's and Sullivan's model of rationâl homotopy types and about Mandell's theorem in p-adic homotopy theory. ...
MATH-643: Applied l-adic cohomologyIn this course we will describe in numerous examples how methods from l-adic cohomology as developed by Grothendieck, Deligne and Katz can interact with methods from analytic number theory (prime numbers, modular forms etc...). ...
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 ...
