Homotopy theory and group actions The University of Copenhagen August 13-24, 2007

Organizers: Erik Kjaer Pedersen and Jesper Grodal (of Copenhagen Topology Group)

The main focus of this workshop will be understanding the relationship between homotopy theory and group actions. It is a continuation of an NSF sponsored Focused Research Group on "homotopy methods in group actions" with members Alejandro Adem, Bill Dwyer, Jesper Grodal, Jeffrey Smith, Clarence Wilkerson.

The meeting will be informal, with very few talks (approx 1 per day) with plenty of time to interact....
(Note: There is an Abel Conference in Olso immediately before this meeting, making attending both events convenient.)
