The lectures survey some of the main features of equivariant cohomology at an introductory level. The first part is an overview, including basic definitions and examples. In the second lecture, I discuss one of the most useful aspects of the theory: the possibility of localizing at fixed points without losing information. The third lecture focuses on Grassmannians, and describes some recent positivity results about their equivariant cohomology rings.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2011-12-06T21:14:30.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14F43", "14M15", "14N15", "05E05" ], "keywords": [ "algebraic geometry", "introduction", "third lecture focuses", "equivariant cohomology rings", "introductory level" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 28, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011arXiv1112.1421A" } } }
