U.S.-France Joint Seminar on Algebraic Homotopy Theory, Luminy, France, July 1988

这笔奖金将用于支持将于1988年7月在法国卢明举行的关于代数同伦理论的美法联合研讨会。会议的组织者是麻省理工学院的Haynes Miller博士和尼斯大学的Jean-Michel Lemaire博士。我们将着重讨论三个主题，每个主题目前都非常活跃，并且对法国和美国的拓扑学家都特别感兴趣：(1)代数同伦理论；(2)分类空间间的映射；(3)代数拓扑中的模形式。最后一个主题是目前拓扑学与其他学科（数学物理和数论）相互作用的主要领域。美国和法国在这三个领域已经开展了重要的合作，希望这次会议将促进和巩固这些努力。预计会议记录将会公布。

This award will support a U.S.-France Joint Seminar on Algebraic Homotopy Theory, to be held in Luminy, France in July, 1988. The conference organizers are Dr. Haynes Miller, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and Dr. Jean-Michel Lemaire, University of Nice. Three topics will be stressed, each currently very active and each of special interest to both French and U.S. topologists: (1) Algebraic homotopy theory; (2) Maps between classifying spaces; (3) Modular forms in algebraic topology. The last topic is currently a major area of interaction between topology and other disciplines (mathematical physics and number theory). Significant collaboration has already been initiated between U.S. and French workers in each of these three areas, and it is hoped that this conference will promote and consolidate these efforts. Publication of proceedings is anticipated.
