Topological Tverberg Theorem (Prime Power Case)

Abstract for the Geometry/Topology and Combinatorics Seminars
2017 August 31

I will solve some discrete geometry problems using methods of equivariant topology. This talk is based on the paper "Beyond the Borsuk–Ulam Theorem – The topological Tverberg story" by Blagojevic and Ziegler. Topological techniques ranging from the Borsuk–Ulam theorem to spectral sequences will be used in solving these problems.
