Algebraic K-theory of spaces

Aims and Description


A workshop on Algebraic K-theory of spaces and related topics will be held at the University of Regensburg, during July 24-28, 2023.


The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers in the field and review aspects of the deep interactions between algebraic K-theory and manifold topology. The workshop will focus on developments in the field, using a variety of homotopy-theoretic and geometric ideas and methods, especially from the perspective of Waldhausen’s algebraic K-theory of spaces and its diverse connections — both with the study of structured ring spectra and their invariants and with the study of automorphisms of manifolds.


There will be lecture series by

  • Marco Varisco (University at Albany, State University of New York)   

In addition to the lecture series, there will also be opportunities for researchers to give contributed talks.
