Mini-Workshop: Homological Aspects for TDLC-Groups

Abstract

This mini-workshop aimed at bringing together experts and early career researchers on finiteness conditions for discrete groups, and experts on varying aspects of locally compact groups to find a common framework to develop a systematic theory of homological finiteness conditions for totally disconnected locally compact groups. Whereas the homological theory of finiteness conditions of discrete groups is well developed and the structure theory of totally disconnected locally compact groups has seen some important breakthroughs in the last decade, the homological theory for (non-compact) totally disconnected locally compact groups is an emerging research area. Specific topics include finiteness conditions for locally compact groups, Mackey functors and Bredon cohomology for topological groups, connections to condensed mathematics, connections to ℓ2-invariants and Σ-invariants.
