Prerequisites: Basic algebra, basics of category theory will be reviewed, but quickly (what is covered in the previous course is enough)
Level: Advance undergraduate, graduate
Abstract: In this course we will define additive and abelian categories, giving examples and showing different equivalent definitions. We will then work on exact sequences and additive functors. The end point is an introduction to homological algebra via examples in various contexts.
