In recent years there have been increasing interactions between noncommutative algebra/representation theory on the one hand and algebraic geometry on the other. This workshop would aim to examine these interactions and, as importantly, to encourage the interactions between the three areas. The precise topics will become more precise nearer the time, but will certainly include:
  • Noncommutative algebraic geometry
  • Noncommutative resolutions of singularities and Calabi-Yau algebras
  • Symplectic reflection and related algebras
  • D-module theory
  • Deformation-quantization
