Localization (mathematics) | Homotopy theory
In mathematics, well-behaved topological spaces can be localized at primes, in a similar way to the localization of a ring at a prime. This construction was described by Dennis Sullivan in 1970 lecture notes that were finally published in. The reason to do this was in line with an idea of making topology, more precisely algebraic topology, more geometric. Localization of a space X is a geometric form of the algebraic device of choosing 'coefficients' in order to simplify the algebra, in a given problem. Instead of that, the localization can be applied to the space X, directly, giving a second space Y. (Wikipedia).
Act globally, compute...points and localization - Tara Holm
Tara Holm Cornell University; von Neumann Fellow, School of Mathematics October 20, 2014 Localization is a topological technique that allows us to make global equivariant computations in terms of local data at the fixed points. For example, we may compute a global integral by summing inte

Localization of Rings as Localizations of Categories
We show what it means to localize a category at a set of morphisms and show that usual localization of rings is an instance of this definition.

This lecture is part of an online course on rings and modules. We discuss the operation of inverting the elements of a subset S of a ring R, called localization. We describe the localization in detail for commutative rings, and briefly discuss the non-commutative case. For the other lec

Abstract. In general it is not possible to localize solutions of the Einstein equations since there are asymptotic conserved quantities such as the total mass which are nonzero for every nontrivial space-time. In this lecture we will describe work with A. Carlotto which achieves a localiza

Centralizer of a set in a group
A centralizer consider a subset of the set that constitutes a group and included all the elements in the group that commute with the elements in the subset. That's a mouthful, but in reality, it is actually an easy concept. In this video I also prove that the centralizer of a set in a gr
