Special Seminar

Title: Moduli spaces of Riemann surfaces and homotopy Frobenius algebras
Speaker: Professor Kevin Costello
Speaker Info: University of Chicago
Brief Description:
Special Note:
Abstract:

I'll discuss some aspects of the surprisingly strong connection between the two objects in the title. In particular, I'll describe how the homology of the moduli spaces acts in a natural way on the Hochschild homology of a homotopy Frobenius algebra.
