DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/STAGE/123/">
 A tour of the Betti\, étale\, de Rham\, and crystalline cohomology</a>\nb
 y Xinyu Fang (Harvard University) as part of STAGE\n\nLecture held in Room
  2-449 in the MIT Simons Building.\n\nAbstract\nThis talk is a crash cours
 e on the properties of various cohomology theories that will be used in th
 e Lawrence-Venkatesh proof. These include the Betti cohomology\, étale co
 homology\, de Rham cohomology and crystalline cohomology. We review releva
 nt structures on each of these cohomology groups of a smooth proper variet
 y\, state some comparison theorems\, and explain how they come together to
  form the "big diagram" in the Lawrence-Venkatesh argument.\n\n[Update] I 
 uploaded my outline for the talk to (slides) below. It is only a skeleton 
 of the talk instead of a complete write-up\, so if you want to review the 
 material\, I recommend reading the first reference (it's only 2 pages)\, a
 nd if you would like more detail\, look into the other references.\n\nRefe
