Thin Homotopy and the Signature of Piecewise Linear Surfaces

This lecture by Francis Bischoff from the University of Regina explores the mathematical concepts of thin homotopy and signature properties of piecewise linear surfaces. Delve into advanced topological theory as part of the Fields Institute's geometric structures program. Scheduled for Monday, May 26, 2025, this 99-minute presentation examines how thin homotopy techniques can be applied to understand the signature properties of surfaces with piecewise linear structures.
