Algebraic cobordism of Levine-Morel Semester SoSe 2023
Lecturer Pavel Sechin
Type of course (Veranstaltungsart) Vorlesung
German title Algebraischer Kobordismsus von Levine-Morel
Contents Algebraic cobordism of Levine-Morel is a cohomology theory that widely generalises Chow ring and K_0 of a smooth variety over a field. It has the universal property of an oriented cohomology theory, i.e. a theory that has not only pullbacks but also pushforwards for projective morphisms.
The lectures will give an introduction to the subject covering the geometric construction, Grothendieck-Riemann-Roch-type theorems, generalised Rost degree formula and the structural results on algebraic cobordism.
