Derived Category Methods in Commutative Algebra II (10rit158)

The Banff International Research Station will host the "Derived Category Methods in Commutative Algebra II" workshop from October 31 to November 7, 2010.

At the Research in Teams workshop "Derived Category Methods in Commutative Algebra II", Professors Hans-Bjorn Foxby, Lars Winther Christensen, and Henrik Holm return to BIRS to finish a 500-page book manuscript entitled "Derived category methods in commutative algebra".rnrnThe book is written for researchers and advanced graduate students in commutative algebra with the purpose of providing an introduction to derived category methods and their applications.

The Banff International Research Station for Mathematical Innovation and Discovery (BIRS) is a collaborative Canada-US-Mexico venture that provides an environment for creative interaction as well as the exchange of ideas, knowledge, and methods within the Mathematical Sciences, with related disciplines and with industry. The research station is located at The Banff Centre in Alberta and is supported by Canada's Natural Science and Engineering Research Council (NSERC), the US National Science Foundation (NSF), Alberta's Advanced Education and Technology, and Mexico's Consejo Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnologia (CONACYT).
