  11/21 3:30-4:30   Keller 302 Kevin Schreve (Louisiana State University) Homology growth and cubulated manifolds Abstract: A conjecture of Singer predicts that the L^2-Betti numbers of the universal cover of a closed aspherical manifold vanishes outside of the middle dimension. In this talk, we will prove the conjecture for some cubulated manifolds constructed using right-angled Coxeter groups. I will also talk about connections to homology growth of right-angled Coxeter groups (with various coefficients). All joint work with Grigori Avramidi and Boris Okun.
  11/15 Herman Servatius (Worcester Polytechnic Institute)  Rigidity and movability of configurations in the projective plane.
