The Mathematical Sciences Research Institute (MSRI) is holding a year-long program in Commutative Algebra from August 19, 2002 to May 16, 2003. The Program is organized by Luchezar Avramov, Mark Green, Craig Huneke, Karen E. Smith and Bernd Sturmfels. It will focus on the following areas:
Tight closure and characteristic p methods
Toric algebra and geometry
Homological algebra
Representation theory
Singularities and intersection theory
Combinatorics and Grobner bases
Invited speakers include David Benson (University of Georgia), David Eisenbud (MSRI), Mark Haiman (UC Berkeley), Melvin Hochster (University of Michigan), Rob Lazarsfeld (University of Michigan), and Bernard Teissier.
There will also be several research workshops during the year. See separate entries for these as information becomes available.
See the MSRI site for the program for more information.
