About

About the course

Course content

The course is offered every second year, provided there are sufficiently many students, next time Fall 2019. If not sufficiently many students register, it may be offered as guided self-study course.
The contents may vary from time to time, but will consist of central subjects for Ph. D. students in the field. Central topics will be methods from generalized homology and cohomology theories, category theory and simplicial theory.

Learning outcome

1. Knowledge.
The course will consist of central subjects for Ph. D. students in the field. Central topics will be methods from generalized homology and cohomology theories, category theory, simplicial theory, homotopy theory and other subjects which may vary from time to time

2. Skills
The students should learn and be able to conduct researches in algebraic topology. They should be also able to apply the homology and cohomology theories, in related areas of Mathematics.




3. Competence
The students should be able to participate in scientific discussions and conduct researches on high international level in algebraic topology as well as in projects in the related areas of Mathematics.

Learning methods and activities

Lectures, alternatively guided self-study.
