The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Mathematical Sciences awarded a $165,475 Project Grant to The Pennsylvania State University, doing business as Penn State, to support research on "Applications of Higher Algebraic Structures in Noncommutative Geometry". The three-year grant, under the NSF's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), will fund the principal investigator's work in applying higher algebraic structures and homotopy algebras to problems in noncommutative geometry motivated by developments in quantum mechanics, quantum field theory, and string theory. This interdisciplinary research aims to advance mathematical fields including representation theory, deformation quantization, and index theory, and provide training opportunities for early career researchers.
