Tenth meeting of the Transpennine Topology Triangle
Department of Mathematics and Computer Science
University of Leicester
24th September 1997 (Postponed from 17th)
The day will be devoted to looking
at the recent preprint "Varieties and
local cohomology for chromatic group cohomology rings"
by John Greenlees and Neil Strickland (available from the authors' homepages
(links on TTT homepage)).
This meeting will include the usual time for participant discussion.
Programme
Coffee will be available from 11am in F9, and the first talk will probably
start at 11.30; talks in G3 of the Mathematics Building.
- 11.30 am Part I (45 mins introduction)
John Greenlees (University of Sheffield)
``Varieties for chromatic group cohomology rings: a birds-eye view.''
- 2.00 pm Part II (90 mins hard core)
Neil Strickland (University of Cambridge)
``Complex oriented cohomology of abelian groups: formal groups and
level structures''
- 4.30 pm Part III (45 mins for an application and its background)
John Greenlees (University of Sheffield)
``Chromatic and equivariant approaches to the homology of BG''
Arrangements for a meal or drink afterwards will be made on the day.
Anyone who wishes to participate is welcome: we shall operate the
usual arrangements for assistance with travel expenses. We expect
to assemble for tea and coffee
from 11.00 am until the first talk.
Tea and Coffee will be served in
the common room.
For further information email John Hunton
jrh7@mcs.le.ac.uk
(or John Greenlees
j.greenlees@sheffield.ac.uk or
Nige Ray
nige@ma.man.ac.uk) if you are interested, so we can make
approximately the right amount of tea and coffee.
