I’m currently at the Joint Mathematics Meeting in Baltimore, MD, USA.\u00a0 This is a huge conference.\u00a0 The program alone is a 250+ page booklet!<\/p>\n
My main purpose there is to participate in the special session on categorical topology on Saturday, January 18th.\u00a0 I’m going to talk about the Escard\u00f2-Lawson-Simpson construction (Section 5.6 in the book<\/a>).\u00a0 Nicely enough, this generalizes outside of pure topology, by the mere virtue of so-called topological functors.\u00a0 I’m also applying all that to Sanjeevi Krishnan’s notion of streams, an incredibly nice model for directed algebraic topology.\u00a0 You can find all this in my slides<\/a>.\u00a0 If you are brave, you can also read the paper<\/a>.<\/p>\n Next week, I’ll visit Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric Mynard at Georgia Southern University, Statesboro, GA, USA.\u00a0 On Tuesday, January 21st, I’ll give a related talk<\/a> that is meant as an introduction to directed algebraic topology and streams.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I’m currently at the Joint Mathematics Meeting in Baltimore, MD, USA.\u00a0 This is a huge conference.\u00a0 The program alone is a 250+ page booklet!
