The top weight cohomology of \(A_g\)
Siehe auch das Video dieses Vortrages.

I will discuss recent work calculating the top weight cohomology of the moduli space \(A_g\) of principally polarized abelian varieties of dimension g for small values of g. The key idea is that this piece of cohomology is encoded combinatorially via the relationship between the boundary complex of a compactification of \(A_g\) and the moduli space of tropical abelian varieties. This is joint work with Madeline Brandt, Melody Chan, Margarida Melo, Gwyneth Moreland, and Corey Wolfe.
