摘要
This talk is a continuation of the previous lecture. We will go over the following topics: Operadic formulation of the definition (introduction to operads, cat-operad models of e_2 and e_3), examples (pointed categories, Eilenberg-MacLane cohomology), basic constructions (monoidal centre, commutative algebras, local modules) and completely anisotropic categories (symmetric, braided)
演讲者介绍
Professor Alexei Davydov got his PhD from Moscow University 1992, and worked at Moscow University as assistant professor from 1990 to 1998. After working at National University of Singapore, Macquarie University and Max Planck Institute for Mathematics, he became a visiting professor at University of New Hampshire. Professor Davydov have been working at Ohio University since 2012, and became a professor there since 2019. Professor Davydov is interested in algebra, representation theory and their connections to mathematical physics, specializing in Hopf algebras, quantum groups, tensor categories and their applications in conformal field theory.
