Freedman Seminar Speaker: Michael Freedman, Harvard CMSA Title: Sullivan's work on Lipschitz structures Abstract: I'll begin with an elementary, but now little known, piece of PL topology: engulfing. John Stalling used it to give an alternative proof of the high dimensional Poincare conjecture. Then I'll explain Dennis Sullivan's enhancement of Kirby's torus trick (which relies […]
