OverviewThis volume presents the proceedings from the month-long program held at Johns Hopkins University (Baltimore, MD) on homotopy theory, sponsored by the Japan-U.S. Mathematics Institute (JAMI). The book begins with historical accounts on the work of Professors Peter Landweber and Stewart Priddy. Central among the other topics are the following: 1. classical and nonclassical theory of $H$-spaces, compact groups, and finite groups, 2. classical and chromatic homotopy theory and localization, 3. classical and topological Hochschild cohomology, 4. elliptic cohomology and its relation to Moonshine and topological modular forms, and 5. motivic cohomology and Chow rings. This volume surveys the current state of research in these areas and offers an overview of future directions. Full Product DetailsAuthor: Donald M.
