DESCRIPTION:Suppose we're given a 2-dimensional homology class in a 3 or a
  4-dimensional manifold. What can we say about the minimal genus of an emb
 edded surface representing this class? I'll discuss what we know about thi
 s problem\, and what it can tell us about the topology of the original\nma
 nifold.\n
