Part I: Jonas Hirsch - Harmonic maps

Part II: Dani Kaufman - Introduction to Mapping Class Groups

Abstract: The mapping class group is a symmetry group of a surface and appears naturally through out many topics in algebra, geometry and topology. Through this lecture series I will give an introduction to the study of these groups including their action on the curve complex and TeichmÃÂ¼ller space, generation by Dehn Twists, their appearance as outer automorphism groups and the Nielson-Thurston classification.

I will generally follow "A Primer on Mapping Class Groups" by Farb and Margalit.

Part III: Bernd Rosenow - Statistical Physics of Learning
