DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/BilTop/112/"
 >Introduction to Bicategories and Extended Topological Field Theories</a>\
 nby Eren Uyanik (Bilkent University) as part of Bilkent Topology Seminar\n
 \nLecture held in SA 141.\n\nAbstract\nIn this talk\, I will motivate and 
 introduce bicategories and extended Topological Field Theories (eTFTs). I 
 will start with recalling the basics of Topological Quantum Field Theories
  (TQFTs) and the classification theorem in 2-dimensional case. I will then
  give the definition of eTFT as a functor between particular bicategories\
 , generalizing the case of ordinary TQFT. Lastly\, I will informally discu
 ss one of the classification theorems for 2-dimensional eTFTs.\n
