Reidemeister torsion and hyperbolic 3-manifolds
Joan Porti (UAB)
Wednesday 27 April 2016 from 12:00–13:00 in Carslaw 535A
Please join us for lunch after the talk!
Abstract:
Reidemeister torsion was introduced in 1935, as an invariant
that classifies lens spaces. In this talk I plan to discuss first some
aspects of its history and then I will focus on its applications to
hyperbolic 3-manifolds.
