Introduction to Pseudogroups

Student-Run Geometry/Topology Seminar

Speaker: Nate Gallup, UC Davis
Location: 2112 MSB
Start time: Tue, Jan 6 2015, 1:10PM

I'll give the definition of a pseudogroup and show how the notion can be used to unify the definitions of different types of manifolds. I'll then talk about a type of "integrability" problem, which includes Frobenius integrability, that arises from the use of pseudogroups.
