Mathematical Sciences: Special Year of Lie Algebras

本项目是李的一个特别研究重点年 代数在威斯康星州，麦迪逊大学在1987年- 1988. 这一特殊年份的主要但非唯一焦点 将在特征p李代数，特别强调 有限维单李的分类问题 代数闭素域上的代数 特色 这个分类问题一直受到抵制 50多年来一直试图解决这个问题。 然而，值得注意的是， 在过去几年中取得了进展。 是 特别年的目的是将个人聚集在一起， 目前正在研究素特征李代数， 相关问题，以分享研究思路和专业知识。 特别年的计划包括：（1）举办讲习班 致力于分类问题和相关问题;（2） 一个会议上更广泛的主题在李理论;（3） 全年举办专题研讨会和讲座。

This project is a special research emphasis year on Lie algebras at the University of Wisconsin, Madison during 1987- 1988. The primary, but not exclusive, focus of the special year will be on characteristic p Lie algebras with special emphasis on the problem of classifying the finite dimensional simple Lie algebras over an algebraically closed field of prime characteristic. This classification problem has resisted attempts to solve it for over 50 years. However, remarkable progress has been achieved in the last few years. It is the intent of the special year to bring together the individuals currently working on prime characteristic Lie algebras and related problems in order to share research ideas and expertise. The plans for the special year include: (1) a workshop devoted to the classification problem and related questions; (2) a conference on a broader range of topics in Lie theory; (3) special seminars and lectures throughout the year.
