Funded Activity Summary

Derived categories and their applications, especially in K-theory, topology and algebraic geometry. Algebraic geometry, topology and algebraic K-theory are mathematical disciplines that study different aspects of geometry. In all these areas of study, derived categories have proved to be powerful tools. This project aims to use derived categories to advance our understanding of geometry. Involved are some of the main open questions in geometry from the second half of the twentieth century. The research is being nominated for the Complex/Intelligent Systems Priority Area. Geometry is relevant in two ways. Secure and/or error correcting codes are often based on algebraic geometry. And modelling concurrency problems involves homotopy theory.
