Talk Schedule

Day Speaker Title and Abstract
09/12/25
Timmy Feng Loop spaces in derived algebraic geometry
I will introduce various loop spaces, including rational, trigonometric, and elliptic loop spaces, and discuss their degenerations. I will explain how the HKR filtration can be derived from deformation to the normal cone. If we have time, I will also discuss the lift to the sphere spectrum, which leads to a filtration of topological Hochschild homology.
