17.11.2016 Title: Topological waist inequalities
Meru Alagalingam

Abstract: Gromov proved that every continuous map f: S^n \to {\mathbb R}^q from the n-dimensional standard sphere admits a point y \in {\mathbb R}^q such that the preimage f^{-1}(y) has (n-q)-dimensional Hausdorff volume at least \mathrm{vol}(S^{n-q}).

Every continuous map f: {\mathbb T}^n \to {\mathbb R}^q from the n-dimensional torus admits a point y \in {\mathbb R}^q such that the cohomology of the preimage f^{-1}(y) has rank at least (n-q).

We will explain why statements of this type are important and how they can be proven by the same technique.
