Modul:   MAT075  Zurich Graduate Colloquium

What is... the cohomology of moduli spaces of curves?

Talk by Dr. Samir Canning

Date: 28.05.24  Time: 16.30 - 17.30  Room:

''The moduli space of curves was first studied by Riemann. I will explain what it is, how to compactify it, and how to attempt to compute the cohomology of its compactifications. Ideas from a broad range of mathematics are necessary, including low dimensional topology, algebraic geometry, and number theory.''
