GWU Mathematics Department Graduate Student Seminar

Welcome to the Graduate Student Seminar of the GWU Mathematics Department. This seminar began in 2006 with the intention of presenting and teaching graduate level research to peers and colleagues having various mathematical interests. Nearly all talks are accessible to mathematics graduate students of various specialties and also advanced undergraduate students. Please join us if you are interested in any of the scheduled talks listed on this page.

All Graduate Student Seminar talks will be held in the GWU Math Department's Seminar Room, unless otherwise noted.

Title: Chromatic Graph Cohomology and Khovanov Link Homology

Abstract: Chromatic graph cohomology was introduced by Helme–Guizon and Rong as a comultiplication free version of the Khovanov cohomology of alternating links, where alternating link diagrams are translated to plane (Tait) graphs. In this talk I will outline both constructions, explain the relations between them and related results about torsion in homology.
