Configurations, scanning and planetary systems

Abstract
This is a survey talk on configuration spaces. After defining them and situating them in the mathematical landscape, I will introduce a common method to study their homology, the so-called scanning. Focusing on ordered configurations of discs, I will discuss how their homology is related to planetary systems and, time permitting, the little discs and the Lie operad.
Series This talk is part of the Junior Geometry Seminar series.
