Title: An overview of transfer techniques in cohomology theories
Abstract: In this talk I will give an overview of transfer techniques in various
types of cohomology theories. We will begin with a leisurely review of
such techniques from algebraic topology. We will then discuss similar techniques and results in
the cohomology of algebraic varieties. The cohomology theories we consider
will range from singular cohomology of topological spaces to algebraic K-theory
and motivic cohomology.
