Abstract: 

Elliptic cohomology is a piece of algebraic topology sitting at the intersection with many other fields of mathematics. We will take a look at what it is, following a perspective highlighting the relationships with Witten's work on string-theoretical invariants for manifolds and hinting at the connection with the emerging field of derived geometry.
