A Morse theoretical approach to the Chas-Sullivan product
Monday, 19.5.25, 16:00-18:00, Seminarraum 404
We will discuss how to build (and generalize) a Morse model for a fundamental operation in string topology, the Chas-Sullivan product on the free loop space of a closed manifold. This approach is based on the work of Barraud, Damian, Humilière and Oancea who introduced Morse Homology with differential graded coefficients which they show to be a particularly adapted framework to give a finite dimensional approach to study the homology of total spaces of fibrations over a closed manifold.
