Math 262: Algebraic Topology II Instructor: R. Hain Differential forms, de Rham cohomology, Poincaré duality, vector bundles, Thom isomorphism, characteristic classes. I will teach a more traditional second semester algebraic topology course from Hatcher (and perhaps one of Munkres' books) More info at: http://www.math.duke.edu/~hain/teaching/mth262/ This course is essential for graduate students interested in studying Algebraic Topology, Differential Geometry, and Mathematical Physics, and would also be important for students interested in Algebraic Geometry.
