Topology and Geometry Seminar
Location: CL 416
Speaker: Carlos Gabriel Valenzuela Ruiz, University of Regina
Title: Characteristic classes: A computation and the Splitting Principle
Abstract:
In this talk we’ll continue where we left off last week. We’ll explore a direct and non-trivial application of the Stiefel-Whitney classes we constructed in the previous talk. Then I’ll present and prove the splitting principle and perform some computations with it, in particular, we’ll prove the uniqueness of the S-W classes.Event Details
