To apply for funding, you must register by Mon, Nov 18 2002.
Recently, commutative algebra has been developing new connections with a variety of fields, and adding new directions to some traditional links. This interdisciplinary workshop proposes to generate an active exchange of information between practitioners and consumers of commutative algebra. The subjects discussed will include invariant theory, cohomology of groups, free resolutions, rational homotopy, stable homotopy, representation theory, and derived categories.

The following have accepted invitations to speak:

W. Bruns
J. Carlson
H. Derksen
W. Dwyer
H.-B. Foxby
J. Herzog
C. Huneke
S. Iyengar
G. Lyubeznik
M. Neusel
I. Reiten
J. Rickard
P. Roberts
J.-E. Roos
B. Shipley
K. Smith
M. Van der Bergh
J. Weyman
R. Wiegand
S. Yuzvinski
