Location:
University of British Columbia
Topic:
Working seminar on homotopy theory of moduli spaces
Description:
Sheaves of Categories and the Main Theorem
After talking about how a sheaf of categories gives rise to a topological category, I will finish the proof of the main theorem of Galatius, Madsen, Weiss and Tillmann which states that the classifying space of the cobordism category is weakly homotopy equivalent to the infinite loop space of the Thom spectrum.
