hey nerdy2, do you know much about tmf? and by the way your mom is ugly! not at all teach me i dunno anything either what are you good for then? asking questions! * flamingsp has quit (Quit: I challenge you to a pilgrimage! A pilgrimage... to the death!) www-math.mit.edu/~mjh/icm2002.ps * flamingsp (~hahaohwow@155.69.177.219) has joined #math there's something by hopkins heh, i just opened that up a few seconds before you said it google is a wonderful tool :) whats tmf? hmm and http://www.math.uiuc.edu/~ganter/talbot/index.html topological modular forms what makes a modular form topologica? wet dreams of algebraic topologists * Bumpero passes out contour integrals * outkast- is now known as outkast_ modular forms are to rings what topological modular forms are to topological rings Yum topological rings (i.e: sections of standard line bundles on the space of elliptic curves over the respective rings) <]Br0uW3r[> i got a question a ring spectrum? <]Br0uW3r[> about tmfs <]Br0uW3r[> pretty basic, maybe one of you guys knows <]Br0uW3r[> or can give a ref <]Br0uW3r[> if i have three topological forms <]Br0uW3r[> if i have three topological modular forms <]Br0uW3r[> and someone comes and takes away two of them <]Br0uW3r[> how many do i have left 3 1, upto equivalence <]Br0uW3r[> k <]Br0uW3r[> thnx
