Rational Homotopy Theory (Summer Semester 2017)
- Lecturer: PD Dr. Manuel Amann
- Classes: Lecture (0183500), Problem class (0183510)
- Weekly hours: 2+1
This class provides an introduction to Rational Homotopy Theory. Using the concept of Sullivan models we shall describe and compute the rational homotopy type of a topological space in a purely algebraic way. In particular, we shall be able to compute rational homotopy groups of several classical spaces like, for example, homogeneous spaces.
A basic knowledge of concepts from Algebraic Topology is recommended.
First Lecture/Tutorial: Thursday, May 4th!
