Methods in Topological Combinatorics

22-28 July 2024

Title of the course: Methods in Topological Combinatorics
Instructor: Dr. Selçuk Kayacan
Institution: Bahçeşehir Üniversitesi
Dates: 22-28 July 2024
Prerequisites: Basic knowledge in algebraic topology
Level: Graduate
Abstract: The interplay between topology and combinatorics is quite interesting. In this series of lectures, after a brief introduction to topological combinatorics, we will cover the subjects “(nonpure) shellability of complexes”, “discrete Morse theory (for posets)” and “poset fiber theorems” which are potentially useful in the study of order complexes of posets.
