About the group

The Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences has selected the research group in Geometry and Topology as an emphasized research area, or more specifically as an "emerging top-tier research group". A large part of the group's research concentrates on algebraic topology and algebraic K-theory, with applications to geometric topology. The group is also involved in relating homotopy theory at large to other subjects. Motivic homotopy theory is an in-vogue example of a homotopy theory that arises in algebraic geometry. An emerging example is a new homotopy theory of C*-algebras. Members of the group are also doing research related to Floer homology, manifolds of dimension 4 and symplectic geometry.
