Introduction

In this course we are studying various topics in the simplicial homotopy theory. This semester we will discuss the theory of derived functors of non-additive functors. After a brief reminder of a classical theory of derived functors, we will follow the seminal paper of Dold and Puppe on the topic. Relation to homology of symmetric powers and Eilenberg-Maclane spaces will be discussed as well. If time permits, we will also look at the general theory of derived functors in an abstract homotopy-theoretical context.

Lecturer Intro

I'm working in simplicial homotopy theory and its applications in path homology and homological algebra related to groups and Lie algebras. I'm also interested in applications of deep learning in contemporary mathematics.

      Dualities and invariants with applications to asymptotic representation theory

      PrerequisiteRepresentation theory of symmetric group, Lie groups and Lie algebrasIntroductionIn this course we will review classical invariant theory, discuss Howe duality for classical Lie groups and its extension to Lie superalgebras.We will use the dualities for classical pairs of Lie groups to pose asymptotic questions. We will study representations of these dual pairs in the limit when ran...

      Elements of non-commutative algebraic geometry

      IntroductionThe classical theory of algebraic geometry connects geometric concepts with corresponding notions in commutative algebra. In the recent decades there was an interest in building a parallel theory based on associative (non-commutative) algebras. We will discuss the basic ideas of this developing theory mostly following Ginzburg's lectures as well as several more recent papers.The cla...
