Surgery and Dynamical Systems
Student-Run Geometry/Topology Seminar| Speaker: | Emi Arima, UC Davis |
| Location: | 2112 MSB |
| Start time: | Tue, Jan 27 2009, 1:10PM |
This talk is an introduction to the topological notion of surgery. I will give a brief explanation, with many pictures and even real-life examples, and draw a connection between surgery on surfaces and a 3-dimensional Lotka-Volterra model from dynamical systems.
