Dear all,

Our speaker this week is Sander Kupers from Harvard University.  His talk is at 3:30pm in Room 417 (Note the change in time and place). We will take Sander for lunch, leaving from the lobby at 11:30am, sharp. 

Best,
Akram

Title:   Cellular E_2-algebras and the unstable homology of mapping class groups

Abstract:   We discuss joint work with Soren Galatius and Oscar Randal-Williams on the application of higher-algebraic techniques to classical questions about the homology of mapping class groups. This uses a new "multiplicative" approach to homological stability -- in contrast to the "additive" one due to Quillen -- which has the advantage of providing information outside of the stable range.
