Workshop and Masterclass on Homological stability

The University of Copenhagen

August 26-30, 2013

The program of the workshop/masterclass will consist of two lecture series: 

  • Homological stability via FI-modules (Tom Church)
  • Stable homology via functor homology (Christine Vespa)

In addition there will be a few individual research talks and plenty of time for discussion. The workshop will start at 9:30 on Monday and end at 15:00 on Friday. 

Reading material: 

Here are some tips for how to prepare for the lectures: 

Functor homology: Draft of notes part 1 (lecture 1-4, Vespa) and part 2 (lecture 5, Djament) for the course. (Part 1 of the notes will be updated regularly in the coming days).

FI-modules: Section 2 of arXiv:1204.4533 as well as the following from the paper arXiv:1210.1854: the basic property that FI-modules over Noetherian rings are Noetherian, the complex denoted \tilde{S}_{-*} V which is defined in Section 2, and the connection between this complex and the homology of congruence subgroups in Section 3.
