MathematischeGesellschaft Excision in algebraic K-theory |  |
Vortragende Person:Dr. Georg Tamme, Universität Regensburg

Beschreibung:
Algebraic K-groups of rings are interesting invariants, which appear in different areas of mathematics, e.g. in number theory, algebraic geometry, or topology. Unfortunately, computations of algebraic K-groups are usually quite hard. One reason for this is that useful tools, familiar from singular homology, like homotopy invariance or some long exact Mayer-Vietoris sequences, are missing in algebraic K-theory. In the talk I will give an introduction to algebraic K-theory and in particular discuss the following question about `excision': When does a given cartesian square of rings give rise to a long exact sequence of algebraic K-groups? Surprisingly, the answer turns out be `almost always’. I will explain this result and some of its consequences.
