I will introduce the beautiful subject of conjugation spaces and conjugation
manifolds, as defined by Hausmann, Holm, and Puppe. Roughly speaking they are
even dimensional spaces (or manifolds) equipped with an involution such that their mod
two cohomology is isomorphic to that of the fixed points after dividing degrees by two.
The main problem to which I will try to give some answers is that of realizing a given
space as fixed points of a conjugation space. This is joint work with Wolfgang Pitsch.
