Homotopy limits and colimits are a fundamental tool in homotopy theory, with applications to topology, geometry, and algebra. The event is aimed at graduate students, postdocs, and early-career researchers who want to learn more about this topic.
The program consists of five minicourses.
Inna Zakharevich (Cornell University): Classical homotopy theory and model categories.
Chris Kapulkin (Western University): ∞-categories.
Anna Marie Bohmann (Vanderbilt University): Equivariant homotopy theory.
Brenda Johnson (Union College): Functor calculus.
Omar Antolín Camarena (UNAM Mexico City): Homotopy theory of classifying spaces.
