May 29 14:00 Sebastian Goette (Freiburg): TBA

Venue: MCS2068

Jun 12 14:00 Ilka Agricola (Marburg): Spinors, skew torsion, and special geometry

I will start by a new look at two seemingly unrelated theorems: Berger\u2019s holonomy theorem and the Montgomery-Samelson classification of transitive sphere actions.  This point of view offers the right starting point for more general holonomy theorems for connections with torsion and exciting classes of spinor fields. Homogeneous spheres will be the playground to illustrate -- and test -- the new concepts and results. In particular, it is surprising how much modern differential geometry is encoded in such a seemingly well-known object like a sphere!
