Note:These pages make extensive use of the latest XHTML and CSS Standards. They ought to look great in any standards-compliant modern browser. Unfortunately, they will probably look horrible in older browsers, like Netscape 4.x and IE 4.x. Moreover, many posts use MathML, which is, currently only supported in Mozilla. My best suggestion (and you will thank me when surfing an ever-increasing number of sites on the web which have been crafted to use the new standards) is to upgrade to the latest version of your browser. If that's not possible, consider moving to the Standards-compliant and open-source Mozilla browser.

Category Theory 2013

Posted by Tom Leinster

Every year or two, there’s a major category theory conference. The last one was in 2011 in Vancouver, and the next one is in Sydney from 7 to 13 July 2013.

The invited speakers are:

  • Eugenia Cheng (Sheffield)
  • Pieter Hofstra (Ottawa)
  • Zurab Janelidze (Stellenbosch)
  • Emily Riehl (Harvard)
  • our very own Mike Shulman (IAS)
  • Ross Street (Macquarie)

More information is at the conference website. There, you can also find out about the workshop the week beforehand, which features mini-courses by Marcelo Aguiar, Richard Garner, Scott Morrison, and again Mike Shulman.

Early in the new year, the website will be updated with info on registration and accommodation, and there’ll be a call for contributed talks.
