2014-2016 Talbot Workshops

这个项目支持为期三年的麻省理工学院塔尔博特研讨会。这是由研究生组织的年度活动。2014年麻省理工学院塔尔博特研讨会于3月16日至22日在田纳西州的鸽堡举行。杜伊斯堡-埃森大学的马克·莱文教授主持了这个名为“动机同伦理论”的研讨会。自2004年启动以来，麻省理工学院塔尔博特研讨会为大约30名年轻的研究人员——研究生和博士后——提供了一个独特的机会，在亲密和非正式的环境中与他们领域的专家一起度过一个星期。每个研讨会都有一个不同的主题，选择它的广泛兴趣和货币。在选择导师时，清晰、领导和慷慨的品质是很重要的。多年来，许多强有力的研究关系都起源于这些研讨会。动机同伦理论是2014年研讨会的主题，是一个充满活力和迅速发展的研究领域，起源于Vladimir Voevodsky（因这项工作获得菲尔兹奖）关于代数k理论的Milnor猜想的解决方案。它吸引了越来越多的来自代数几何和代数拓扑的参与者，因为它固有的美和它被证明的能力，作为一种工具来解决代数k理论中的问题，最近，在同伦理论中。它为塔尔博特研讨会提供了一个理想的主题，汇集了来自不同领域的非常聪明和积极的年轻研究人员，在鼓励深度学习和合作的背景下，在马克·莱文（Marc Levine）的鼓舞人心的领导下，他对该主题做出了深刻的贡献。网站http://math.mit.edu/conferences/talbot/包含了所有11个麻省理工学院塔尔博特研讨会的描述和报告。

This project supports three years of MIT Talbot workshops. This is an annual event organized by graduate students. The 2014 MIT Talbot Workshop took place March 16-22 in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. Professor Marc Levine of the Universitaet Duisburg-Essen led the workshop, which was entitled Motivic Homotopy Theory. Since their initiation in 2004, the MIT Talbot Workshops have provided a unique opportunity for some thirty young researchers - graduate students and postdocs - to spend a week with an expert in their field in an intimate and informal setting. Each workshop is on a different topic, chosen for its broad interest and currency. Qualities of clarity, leadership, and generosity are important in the selection of mentor. Numerous strong research relationships have had their origin in these workshops over the years.Motivic homotopy theory, the subject of the 2014 workshop, is a vibrant and rapidly expanding research area with origins in the solution of the Milnor conjecture about algebraic K-theory by Vladimir Voevodsky (who won the Fields Medal for this work). It has attracted an increasing number of participants from both algebraic geometry and algebraic topology, because of its intrinsic beauty and its proven power as a tool for attacking problems in algebraic K-theory and, more recently, in homotopy theory. It provided an ideal subject for the Talbot Workshop, bringing together very bright and motivated young researchers from distinct fields in a context which encouraged deep learning and collaboration, under the inspired leadership of Marc Levine, one who has made profound contributions to the subject.The website http://math.mit.edu/conferences/talbot/ contains descriptions of and reports resulting from all eleven MIT Talbot Workshops.
