Course content
The goal with the course is to give a solid background for studies in topology, and develop geometrical ideas and algebraic methods. The course supports studies in related subjects in algebra and geometry. Topics that can be discussed include products and power operations, K-theory, bordism theory, and many others.
Learning outcome
1. Knowledge. The student has knowledge of advanced topics in algebraic topology. 2. Skills. The student is able to apply his or her knowledge of algebraic topology to formulate and solve problems of a geometric-topological nature.
Learning methods and activities
The learning methods and activities depend on the lecturer. The course may be taught in English. If not enough students register for the course, it will be given as a reading course.
Recommended previous knowledge
Depends on the specific topic, but the course will usually at least be based on TMA4190 Introduction to Topology, MA3403 Algebraic Topology 1, and MA3408 Algebraic Topology 2.
