Abstract:

A cell structure on an \(E_2\) (little disks) algebra is a weak equivalence from an \(E_2\) algebra built by iterated cell attachments. I will recall this notion and discuss how to find cell structures on specific \(E_2\) algebras. Then I will explain some applications to the homology of mapping class groups and general linear groups. This is joint work with A. Kupers and O. Randal-Williams.
