Witten's approach to Morse theory
Student-Run Geometry/Topology Seminar| Speaker: | Brad Safnuk, UC Davis |
| Location: | 2112 MSB |
| Start time: | Thu, Jan 26 2006, 1:10PM |
This talk will be an introduction to Morse theory. In particular, I will be discussing how Morse theory can be used to construct the homology groups of a manifold. Finally, I will describe some related theories coming from theoretical physics.
