A comparison between topological models for concurrency
Speaker:
Joshua Lieber, California Institute of Technology
Date and Time:
Monday, March 2, 2020 - 3:00pm to 4:00pm
Location:
Fields Institute, Room 230
Abstract:
This talk will largely be an introduction to the theory of model categories as a setting for homotopy theory. Towards the end, a discussion of two topological models of concurrent computing will be given, and it will be shown that they do not yield equivalent homotopy theories by standard means.
