Quivers, loops, triangles and octahedra

Student-Run Discrete Math Seminar

Speaker: Kevin Walker, Station Q (Microsoft)
Location: 2112 MSB
Start time: Thu, Feb 11 2010, 12:10PM

This talk will be background for the algebra seminar talk the following day. I'll discuss quiver algebras, the Temperley-Lieb category (i.e. loops), and triangulated categories (including the famous "octahedral axiom").
