- Date: 06/23/2010
Lecturer(s):
Rosona Eldred (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign)
Location:
University of British Columbia
Description:
In this talk, we'll use classic definitions from calculus of real
variables to motivate what it means to be a polynomial functor of
degree n, the construction of the derivative of a functor and the
basics of the `Taylor Series' of a functor as well as do a few simple
calculations.
Schedule:
