MA1: Introduction to l^p-cohomology

label Diverse autorenew 2025-09-29, 17:01 history_edu Ioana Dinescu
l^p-cohomology has found applications in diverse areas of mathematics such as the geometry of negatively curved manifolds, analysis on metric spaces, and geometric group theory. This course will give a gentle introduction to this subject. No prior knowledge of any homology or cohomology theory is expected from the participants. Basic concepts and ideas related to this will be reviewed before introducing l^p-cohomology and establishing its most important properties. Later in the course I will discuss applications of l^p-cohomology and some open problems.

Period
11-08-2014 - 15-08-2014 (1 weeks)

Target group
The course is aimed at graduate students, but strong advanced undergraduate students with the appropriate background might find it suitable. Basic knowledge on metric geometry will be useful.

Course aim
The most important aims of the Summer School are to develop post-graduates scientific readiness and to offer students the possibility to study in a modern, scientific environment and to create connections to the international science community.
