The theory of 2-Segal sets has connections to various important constructions such as the Waldhausen $S_\bullet$-construction in algebraic $K$-theory, Hall algebras, and (co)operads. In this paper, we construct 2-Segal sets from rooted trees and explore how these applications are illustrated by this example.
These notes represent the transcript of three, 90 minute lectures given by the second author at the CRM in Barcelona in 2021 as part of the "Higher Structures and Operadic Calculus" workshop. The goal of the series was to introduce and motivate modular infinity operads via their application to what is often called "Grothendieck-Teichmueller" theory.
