As part of the yearlong program in Noncommutative Algebra, MSRI will host a two-week workshop on Interactions between Algebraic Geometry and Noncommutative Algebra, February 14-25, 2000. (Due to the Presidents' Day Holiday, Monday, February 21, the workshop will host one Saturday session on Saturday, February 19.)

In recent years, there have been a number of important applications of techniques and ideas from algebraic geometry to noncommutative algebra, and the aim of this conference will be to examine these applications and their interactions. Among the areas of concentration with which the conference will be concerned are the following topics and their interactions:

Noncommutative projective algebraic geometry and the study of noncommutative graded algebras; Geometric aspects of algebraic quantum groups, derived categories and quantization; Geometric aspects of the representation theory of quivers; Rings of differential operators and invariant theory.
