Cocycles for GL_n and Graph Complexes from Differential Forms

Explore the intricate connections between cocycles for general linear groups and graph complexes through the lens of differential forms in this 57-minute conference talk by E. Panzer from the University of Oxford. Delve into advanced mathematical concepts linking polylogarithms, homology of linear groups, and Steinberg modules as part of a comprehensive mathematical workshop. Examine how differential forms provide a framework for understanding cocycles in the context of GL_n and their relationship to graph complexes. Gain insights into cutting-edge research at the intersection of algebraic topology, representation theory, and mathematical physics through this specialized presentation delivered as part of the NCCR SwissMAP program.
