Simplicial homotopy theory
Semester
WiSe 2026 / 27

Lecturer
Christoph Winges

Type of course (Veranstaltungsart)
Vorlesung

German title
Simpliziale Homotopietheorie

Contents
This lecture course will develop a combinatorial approach to describing weak homotopy types through the theory of Kan complexes. After setting up the basic theory and comparing it to the homotopy theory of topological spaces, we will apply this machinery to some classical problems in algebraic topology. A possible topic to be covered in the later parts of the course is the Curtis spectral sequence, which is a calculational tool to approach the stable homotopy groups of a simply-connected homotopy type.

Literature
Goerss, Jardine. Simplicial homotopy theory.
Curtis. Some relations between homotopy and homology, Ann. Math. (2) 82, 386-413 (1965).

Recommended previous knowledge
Minimal: Some basic algebra, and we will use a modicum of category-theoretic language. For the later parts of the lecture course, some prior exposure to algebraic topology can be helpful, but should not be strictly necessary.
