[Turkmath:756] Seminar talk, Ingrid Irmer at MSGSU, Friday, November 13, 13:00

[Mohan Ravichandran]

Dear All,

   Ingrid Irmer(METU) will talk this week at the MSGSU general seminar.

Title :

Homology classes of lifts of simple curves on surfaces

Abstract:

The following question has arisen from studying mapping class groups:
Suppose S is a surface and S ̃ is a finite index regular cover of S.
Do the lifts of simple curves from S generate H_1 (\tilde{S} ̃, Z)?

This talk will discuss some of the background to this question, and
explain why the answer to this question is “No” for large complexity
covers.

Time : 13:00, Friday, November 13
Place : MSGSU Bomonti Campus, Room 106

Best,
Mohan Ravichandran
