Topology Seminar: Alexander Neshitov

This is a joint work with G.Garkusha. In the talk I will discuss the construction of fibrant replacements for spectra consisting of Thom spaces (suspension spectra of varieties and algebraic cobordism MGL being the motivating examples) that uses the theory of framed correspondences. As a consequence we get a description of the infinite loop space of MGL in terms of Hilbert schemes.
