Anel\, E. Finster and A. Joyal)\n \n In classical calculus one studies smoo th functions via their Taylor series. Its $n$-th homogeneous layer is gove rned by a single coefficient: the $n$-th derivative. As part of his effort to relate algebraic K-theory to topological cyclic homology Goodwillie du ring the 90s introduced 'Goodwillie calculus' to homotopy theory. A homoto py invariant functor is viewed as an analogue of a smooth function and res olved into a tower whose $n$-th homogeneous layer is governed by a single coefficient: a spectrum (in the sense of homotopy theory) with $Sigma_n$-a ction. Goodwillie calculus is now a central tool in homotopy theory. Aroun d the same time (and influenced by Goodwillie) Michael Weiss constructed ' orthogonal calculus': space-valued functors from the category of finite di mensional Euclidean vector spaces with morphism given by Stiefel manifolds are resolved into an orthogonal tower whose $n$-th homogeneous layer is g overned by a spectrum with an action by $O(n)$. Weiss' theory has found ma ny applications in differential topology. People have wondered for a long time whether both theories have a common description. We can give one. In fact\, it turns out that the theory of $infty$-topoi is the perfect langua ge. For any left exact localization $L$ of an $infty$-topos we construct a tower $(P_n)_{nge 0}$ of left exact localizations such that $P_0=L$. The pointed objects of the layers form stable $infty$-categories. The tower is analogous to the completion tower of a commutative ring with respect to a n ideal. It specializes to Goodwillie's and Weiss' tower. I am going to te ll you a bit about all these towers.\n\nLocation: 201\, avenue du Présiden t-Kennedy\, PK-5115\, UQAM\, Montréal\n\nWeb site : https://www.cirget.uqa m.ca/fr/seminaires.html\n\n \n DTSTART:20221021T150000Z DTEND:20221021T160000Z SUMMARY:Georg Biedermann (Universidad del Norte) URL:/mathstat/channels/event/georg-biedermann-universi dad-del-norte-342832 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
