In this series of talks, I will introduce basic concepts and results in singularity theory of smooth and holomorphic maps.  In the first talk, I will present a gentle introduction to the elements of singularity theory and give a proof of the well-known Morse Lemma that illustrates key geometric and algebraic principles of singularity theory.

This will be a 1.5 hour (maybe slightly longer) seminar.&nbsp;

Following up on the previous series of talks we will show how to construct Lagrangian Floer homology and discuss it properties.

Note todays seminar is just form 2 to 3 to accomodate a seminar at 3.

In this series of talks I will descibe a general proceedure to construct homology theories using analytic/geometric techiques. We will then consider Morse homology in some detail and a simple example of this process. Afterwords we will consider other situations like Floer theory and possibly contact homology.
