Title: The algebraic topology of p-adic Lie groups

Speaker: Dustin Tate Clausen

Abstract: Lazard(-Serre) proved that the cohomology of p-adic Lie groups satisfies a version of Poincare duality.  This indicates an analogy between p-adic Lie groups and real manifolds.  I will explain some results which develop this analogy further.
