Lectures next week in Lisbon on Kervaire Invariant One

If you are desperate to hear more about the Kervaire Invariant One problem, it might be a good idea to go to Portugal next week and listen to the first-hand account presented by Ravenel in this lecture series.

There are also lots of useful comments on the problem at the n-category cafe, including some comments of Mike Hopkins, and an explanation of the connections with exotic spheres.

Update: The video from Hopkins’ talk is available from the conference website (at the moment only as a huge mov file).
