Title: Character Tables of Alternating Groups
By: Amritanshu Prasad
From: IMSc
Abstract: I will explain how to compute all the values in the character table of an alternating group.

The main ingredient in the computation is the recursive Murnaghan-Nakayama formula, which also happens to be the fastest algorithm for computing a character value of the symmetric group.

Another important ingredient is the folding map, which gives a bijection from the set of partitions with distinct odd parts to the set of self-conjugate partitions.

Title: Stable Homotopy and Spectra
By: Prateep Chakraborty
From: IMSc
Abstract: First we shall define homology and cohomology theory. Then we
shall define sigma-spectrum and state Brown Representability theorem. To
draw an analogy to homology theory, we shall discuss stable homotopy
theory and spectrum.
