MATH Seminar: “Quasicategories”, Aziz Kharoof, 1:30PM February 20 (EN)

You are cordially invited to the Topology Seminar organized by the Department of Mathematics.

Speaker: Aziz Kharoof (Bilkent University)

“Quasicategories”

Abstract: In this talk we will introduce the first model of infinity categories, namely quasicategories. We will discuss the construction of a nerve of a category and thus embedding of the category of (small) categories in sSet. We will also see how a topological space gives rise to a quasicategory – i.e., via the fundamental infinity-groupoid construction.
