Informal Seminar

Johns Hopkins University






Time: Wednesday 3:00 - 4:00 PM.
Location: Shaffer 100.

Plan of the seminar:

It is mainly intended to be a learning seminar on some topics involving topology, representation theory and operator algebras. Currently we are trying to understand the recent work of Freed-Hopkins-Teleman on twisted equivariant K-theory and loop group representations.
