Homological Stability, Part I
- Date: 02/14/2007
Lecturer(s):
Nathalie Wahl (University of Copenhagen)
Location:
University of British Columbia
Topic:
Homological stability theorems have been proved for many families of
groups like symmetric groups, linear groups, mapping class groups of
surfaces and of 3-manifolds. I will review some examples and explain
how such theorems are proved. As a more concrete example, I will give a
proof of the stability of the homology of the wreath product of any
group with the symmetric groups.
