Title: Stir-frying Homeo_+(S^1)-representations and the L-space conjecture.

Abstract: The existence of a representation of the fundamental group of aÌý3-manifold with values in Homeo_+(S^1) potentially has a major impact onÌýits topology via the L-space conjecture. We'll discuss how such representationsÌýarise from pseudo-Anosov flows and how an operation called stir-frying addsÌýgreat variability to the construction. Time permitting, we'll discuss applicationsÌýto the study of the L-space conjecture.
