401-3002-12L | Algebraic Topology II | 8 credits | 4G | P. S. Jossen | |
Abstract | This is a continuation course to Algebraic Topology I. The course will cover more advanced topics in algebraic topology such as: products, duality, cohomology operations, characteristic classes, spectral sequences etc. | ||||
Objective | |||||
