Seminar: Topology vs. Combinatorics Semester WiSe 2018 / 19
Lecturer Clara Löh
Type of course (Veranstaltungsart) Seminar
Contents Many topological objects admit simple combinatorial descriptions.
This simplifies the computation of invariants
from algebraic topology.
Conversely, we can enhance combinatorial objects to topological
objects and then analyse these with methods from algebraic
topology. For example, this leads to an elegant approach to colouring
and embedding problems for graphs.
In this seminar, we will study both combinatorial aspects of
algebraic topology and applications of algebraic topology in
discrete mathematics.
Recommended previous knowledge This seminar accompanies the Algebraic Topology course; no previous knowledge of algebraic topology is necessary.
