Guidelines |
The theme of magister thesis is a topological characterization
of normal bundles of embedded submanifolds, a topic on the intersection of algebraic topology, geometry (both algebraic and differential) and representation theory. A prototype example is given by the embedded smaller rank Grassmann manifold in a higher rank Grassmann manifold, equipped with (compatible) Bruhat cell decomposition, Schubert calculus and the structure of generalized flag manifold. The aim is to rely on several mutually related tools, e.g. singular cohomology theory and K-theory as well as representation theory of Lie resp. Weyl groups, to give some description of normal bundles in terms of characteristic classes, representation theory, etc. |
