Conference Topics

Picture of Haynes Miller

The conference focuses on the new interactions of Algebraic Topology with Group Theory, Algebraic Geometry and Mathematical Physics which come from looking at these fields through the eye of a homotopy theorist. It celebrates one of the contributors to the subject by honoring the 60th birthday of Haynes Miller (MIT). One week before the conference there will be a workshop at the ->University of Copenhagen with lecture series by Bill Dwyer (Notre Dame) and by Paul Goerss (Northwestern).
