MPIM Lecture Hall [2]

Parent event:

Conference on "Algebraic Topology, in memory of Hans-Joachim Baues", October 17 - 21, 2022 [3]

Joint work with M. Batanin.
I will show that the Morrison-Walker blob complex appearing in Topological Quantum Field Theory is an operadic bar resolution of a certain operad composed of fields and local relations. My talk will be based on the draft "Operads, operadic categories and the blob complex" available at https://users.math.cas.cz/~markl/ [4].
