Math 8360: News and Announcements, Fall 2021

o 11/24/21: I am canceling the Thanksgiving Eve course meeting: no course meeting today evening. Have a very happy holiday! And I will see you after the short break on Monday.

o 10/1/21: I would like to replace the Monday, October 4, course meeting with my Zoom talk on Rational homotopy theory and mysterious duality at (belive it or not) the First International Congress on Topology and Related Topics, which will be happening on Zoom in Lima, Perú. My Zoom talk will be from 4:00 to 4:50 p.m. our CDT time. It will be a good (?) overview of what will be coming at the end of the course, but the material of my talk will not be needed to go on with the course. So, it is up to you whether you want to attend my talk. There are other talks you may wish to attend. For example, our own Craig Westerland will be talking there 5-5:50 p.m. The congress will be running Monday through Thursday, 9 a.m. - 6:50 p.m. CDT. Here is the Zoom link:

o 9/20/21: I am chaging the timing of my Monday office hours slightly from 1:30-2:20 to 1:25-2:15 to adjust them better to how things are run at the U. I do not know why I had the 1:30 time in the first place. Perhaps, just a clerical error on my part.

o 9/15/21: I would like to switch my Thursday office hours (2:30-3:20) to Zoom until further notice. I will send you a link via a Google Calendar invitation. I would also like to change my Wednesday office hours to 2:30-3:20.

o 9/10: The Syllabus is now posted, see the course web page.

o 9/10: I have started writing Class Outlines, see the course web page. Still working on the Syllabus.

o 9/10: I encourage those of you who have not registered to register for the course, unless it you have special circumstances, such as it will cost you money or change your student status, etc. If you need to register for this course and the system prevents you from doing that, please send a message to Stephanie Lawson at ugrad@math.umn.edu and ask for a permission number. If permission is granted, go to OneStop and register.
