PrerequisiteAlgebraic TopologyAbstractThis course will discuss configuration spaces from the views of homotopy theory. The course will consist of three parts. In the first part, we will discuss the motivations of studying configuration spaces in homotopy theory, including the configuration space models for iterated loop spaces, little cube operads, and Hopf invariants. In the second part of the...
Periods of Calabi-Yau varieties and Gromov-Witten invariantsThe seminar "Geometry, Arithmetic and Differential Equations of Periods" (GADEPs), started in the pandemic year 2020 and its aim is to gather people in different areas of mathematics around the notion of periods which are certain multiple integrals. This is the second GADEPs conference focused on periods and Hodge theory of Calabi-Yau ...
