Not Your Average Exact Sequence
Abstract:
The Conley Index is a topological tool in dynamical systems which makes heavy use of basic homological techniques, particularly exact sequence. I will present a short primer on relative homology, describe the homological version of the Conley Index, and then present a diagram chase that contains information about the unstable manifolds of invariant sets in a dynamical system. This talk is aimed at students in the Algebraic Topology I course as well as anyone interested in dynamical systems. [video]
