Math 221b: Instanton Floer Homology, Fall 2016

This is the unofficial home page for my course on Instanton Floer homology; the official home page is the LATTE page, which requires a Brandeis login. For those who can't access LATTE, here are some of the course materials; I've provided links or pdfs for some of the less accessible resources.
