Conference and Summer School in Algebric Topology

摘要奖：DMS-0420383主要研究者：Haynes R.米勒该奖项资助旅行，特别是由初级研究人员，国际会议和暑期学校的拓扑学发生在河内，越南，在2004年8月。 重点将放在应用的斯廷罗德代数的问题，在拓扑和代数。 三个短期课程将形成一个暑期学校之前的会议，介绍学生的背景材料。 会议将讨论的一些发展是由Segal猜想和Sullivan猜想的解产生的，主题可能包括一般线性群的不变量理论和表示理论，多项式函子，Mac Lane同调，拓扑循环同调，p-紧群和p-局部有限群的研究，以及伯恩赛德环在分类空间分裂中的应用。会议将汇集从事拓扑学、表示论、不变量理论和群论的数学家。对这项工作的兴趣确实是全球性的：至少有210个国家雇用了我们打算邀请的数学家。暑期学校将吸引年轻人，丰富他们的经验。

AbstractAward: DMS-0420383Principal Investigator: Haynes R. MillerThis award funds travel, particularly by junior researchers, toan international conference and summer school on topology to takeplace in Hanoi, Vietnam, in August 2004. The focus will be onapplications of the Steenrod algebra to problems in topology andalgebra. Three short courses will form a summer school precedingthe conference to introduce students to background material. Anumber of the developments to be discussed in the conference growout of the solutions of the Segal Conjecture and the SullivanConjecture, and topics may include invariant theory andrepresentation theory of the general linear group, polynomialfunctors, Mac Lane homology, topological cyclic homology, thestudy of p-compact groups and p-local finite groups, and the useof the Burnside ring in splittings of classifying spaces.The conference will bring together mathematicians working intopology, representation theory, invariant theory, and grouptheory. The interest in this work is truly global: at least 21countries employ mathematicians we intend to invite. The summerschool will attract younger people and enrich the exprience forthem.
