| - | ** <WRAP box>// Abstract: // Scissors congruence is the study of polytopes, up to the relation of cutting into finitely many pieces and rearranging the pieces. In the 2010s, Zakharevich defined a "higher" version of scissors congruence, where we don't just ask whether two polytopes are scissors congruent, but also how many scissors congruences there are from one polytope to another. | + | |
| - | Zakharevich's definition is a form of algebraic K-theory, which is famously difficult to compute, but I describe some recent work that makes these calculations possible, at least for low-dimensional geometries. This allows us to compute the homology of the group of cut-and-paste operations in new cases, including the group of interval exchange transformations, and a new proof of Szymik and Wahl's theorem that Thompson's group V is acyclic. | + | * **January 29h** \\ Speaker: ** Juliet Aygun (Cornell) ** \\ Title: ** ** <WRAP box>// Abstract: // \\ </WRAP> |
| - | Much of this talk is based on joint work with Anna-Marie Bohmann, Teena Gerhardt, Mona Merling, and Inna Zakharevich, and also with Alexander Kupers, Ezekiel Lemann, Jeremy Miller, and Robin Sroka. \\ </WRAP> | + | * **February 5th** \\ Speaker: ** Barry Minemyer (Commonwealth University - Bloomsburg) ** \\ Title: ** ** <WRAP box>// Abstract: // \\ </WRAP> |

| - | splittings helped make it feasible to do computations using the ko- and | + | |
| - | ku-based Adams spectral sequences. | + | |
| - | These spectral sequences have proven to be powerful tools for better understanding the structure of the stable homotopy groups of the sphere, with a variety of interesting applications. For example, Mahowald used them to verify the Telescope Conjecture at height one, and Gonzalez later used them to classify stunted lens spaces. | + | * **February 26th** \\ Speaker: ** ** \\ Title: ** ** <WRAP box>// Abstract: // \\ </WRAP> |
| - | In this talk, I will discuss progress towards developing analogues of these tools in the C_2 equivariant setting. In particular, Guchuan Li, Sarah Petersen, and I have constructed models for C_2-equivariant analogues of the integral Brown-Gitler spectra, and used them to construct an analogue of the ku-splitting. \\ </WRAP> | + | |
