Seminars for the week of May 2, 2005
Colloquium
Thursday, 3:30, in VinH 16Professor Ezra Miller
will speak on
"Combinatorics in cohomology and convexity" Discrete structures arise in a vast array of continuous geometric
contexts. The aim of this talk is to convey a glimpse of the possibilities by
describing some recent work and open problems in connection with cohomological
data on manifolds, properties of convex polytopes, and mixtures of the
two.
