Seminar on Cyclic Cohomology

Overview

Cyclic (co)-homology was introduced independently by Alain Connes and Boris Tsygan. This a (co)-homology theory which can be seen as a noncommutative version of classical de Rham theory. This is a reading seminar on Cyclic (co)-homology and its applications. Would you like to give a talk? please contact the organizers Cristian (cortiz@ime.usp.br) and Kostiantyn (iusenko@ime.usp.br). 

When and Where?

We meet every Friday at 6pm. The seminar takes place at Auditorio Gilioli - Building A of IME-USP.  For information about previous talks, please take a look here.
