Shun Wakatsuki (Nagoya University)
Computation of the magnitude homology as a derived functor (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
Asao-Ivanov showed that the magnitude homology of a finite metric space is isomorphic to the derived functor Tor over some ring. In this talk, I will explain an application of the theory of minimal projective resolution to this derived functor. Especially in the case of a geodetic graph, torsion-freeness and a criterion for diagonality of the magnitude homology are established. Moreover, I will give computational examples including cyclic graphs. This is a joint work with Yasuhiko Asao.

Emmanuel Graff (The University of Tokyo)
Is there torsion in the homotopy braid group? (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
In the 'Kourovka notebook,' V. Lin questions the existence of a non-trivial epimorphism from the braid group onto a non-abelian torsion-free group. The homotopy braid group, studied by Goldsmith in 1974, naturally appears as a potential candidate. In 2001, Humphries showed that this homotopy braid group is torsion-free for less than six strands. In this presentation, we will see a new approach based on the broader concept of welded braids, along with algebraic techniques, to determine whether the homotopy braid group provides a complete answer to Lin’s question.
