Title: Homological stability: From algebraic K-theory to bounded cohomology, scissors congruence and dynamics
Abstract: Homological stability is a well-established and powerful tool for studying and, eventually, computing group homology. In the first part of this talk, I will introduce this technique and outline its connection to algebraic K-theory. In the second part, I will showcase the flexibility of this tool and survey recent works applying it in the context of bounded cohomology, scissor congruence and dynamics.
