Title: Vanishing of negative K-theory and bounded t-structures
Speaker: Amnon Neeman
Speaker Info: Australian National University
Brief Description:
Special Note:
Abstract:

We will begin with a quick reminder of algebraic K-theory, and a few classical vanishing results for negative K-theory. The talk will then focus on a striking 2019 article by Antieau, Gepner, and Heller - it turns out that there are K-theoretic obstructions to the existence of bounded t-structures.

The result suggests many questions. A few have already been answered, but many remain open. We will concentrate on the many possible directions for future research.
