Cohomology configuration space and polynomial factorization statistics
The symmetric group acts naturally on configurations of distinct, labeled point in R^n, giving the cohomology of these configuration spaces the structure of a symmetric group representation. I will discuss how these representations are connected to statistical properties of polynomials over finite fields, and how we can use this connection to gain new insights about both.
