Seminar

German title
Homotopische Algebra - Modelkategorien

Contents
This seminar will be an introduction to the theory and applications of model categories. The theory
of model categories establishes an axiomatic framework for homotopy theory which has been very
successful in analyzing homotopical phenomena and generalizing the methods of homological algebra
to more general (non-additive) categories. The classical homotopy theories of topological spaces
and chain complexes fit nicely in this framework and provide some of the main examples. The theory
of model categories also provides a general framework in which different homotopy theories can be
compared. This seminar should be of interest to anyone interested in algebraic topology,
homological algebra and/or (higher) categorical methods in topology and algebra. The detailed list
of topics will appear shortly on the course homepage.

Literature
See the Seminar Program for details (to appear shortly on the course homepage).

Recommended previous knowledge
Knowledge of basic category theory will be assumed. Familiarity with algebraic topology and/or
homological algebra will be very useful.
