SUMMARY:Sheaves on Buildings\, Homological Induction and Complexes of Grou

DESCRIPTION:The standard construction of the representation theory of S_n 
 is based upon the combinatorics of Young Tableaux. In this talk I will exp
 lore a potential alternative construction: a ‘homological induction’ u
 sing sheaves of modules on Tits buildings. These methods were developed by
  Ronan and Smith in the 1980’s. Time permitting\, I will also talk a lit
 tle about the 2-category of complexes of groups and how it may relate to t
 his problem.
