PIMS Symplectic Geometry Seminar: Coisotropic submanifolds, deformation, and models for the leaf space of a foliation
Coisotropic submanifolds of symplectic manifolds are canonically foliated. Their deformation is described by an L-infinity algebra with a known geometric description. I will describe some calculations with the obstruction theory of this L-infinity...

Topology Seminar: Noah Kieserman (Bowdoin)
Multiplicative differential forms are relevant whenever considering an object with a smooth groupoid of symmetries. One can ask what is the corresponding infinitesimal object, and in fact some of the most important examples arise from this direction...
