Poincare Duality and TQFT Structures for Loop Spaces

Poincare Duality and TQFT Structures for Loop Spaces

Explore the intricate connections between Poincaré duality and Topological Quantum Field Theory (TQFT) structures in the context of loop spaces in this 56-minute lecture by K. Cieliebak from Augsburg. Delve into advanced topics in algebra and topology, with a focus on the Grothendieck-Teichmüller group. Gain insights into the mathematical foundations that underpin these complex concepts and their applications in modern theoretical physics and mathematics.
