Dear all,
Due to the unavailability of Dr. Sarang for the lecture announced for tomorrow, we are going to start the third section of categorical K-theory: the K-theory of Waldhausen categories. Prof. Sarang's lecture is postponed until further notice. Please find the details for the first lecture in the 3rd section below.
Title: Waldhausen categories and the S-construction
Time: 13th May, Saturday, 3 pm, IST
Speaker: Dr. Arun Kumar
A Waldhausen category is a homotopical category of algebraic nature, generalizing the concept of the category of chain complexes. The K-theory of such a category reveals those core properties through K-groups, just as we have studied earlier. Whether you are interested in category theory, K-theory or in homotopical algebra, you are highly recommended to join us tomorrow over zoom.
Best wishes,
