for this workshop
Equivariant techniques in stable homotopy theory
at the
American Institute of Mathematics, San Jose, California
organized by
Andrew Blumberg, Teena Gerhardt, and Michael Hill
This workshop, sponsored by AIM and the NSF, will be devoted to applications of new theoretical and computations tools in equivariant stable homotopy theory to chromatic homotopy theory and algebraic K-theory. The recent renaissance in equivariant stable homotopy theory has provided many new tools which allow us to better understand classical problems and carry out new computations.
The main topics for the workshop are:
- New applications of the slice spectral sequence in chromatic homotopy theory.
- The interplay between equivariant homotopy theory and spectral algebraic geometry.
- New approaches to the algebraic K-theory of chromatic ring spectra.
This event will be run as an AIM-style workshop. Participants will be invited to suggest open problems and questions before the workshop begins, and these will be posted on the workshop website. These include specific problems on which there is hope of making some progress during the workshop, as well as more ambitious problems which may influence the future activity of the field. Lectures at the workshop will be focused on familiarizing the participants with the background material leading up to specific problems, and the schedule will include discussion and parallel working sessions.
The deadline to apply for support to participate in this workshop has passed.
