"Braid groups in complex projective spaces"

Abstract: We consider ordered or unordered k−tuplets of distinct points 
in CP^n which generate subspaces of fixed dimension i, and we compute 
the fundamental groups of the configuration spaces formed by these 
k−tuplets. We apply these to study connectivity of more complicated 
configurations of points.

Venue: Luigi Stasi Seminar Room, ICTP Leonardo Building, first floor.
