Tricks with spectral sequences

Abstract:

Spectral sequences present a fairly complicated algebraic gadget with which to study some interesting geometric questions. In this talk, the goal is to show how certain methods that depend on the structure of a spectral sequence lead to satisfying results. Examples will abound.
