This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) provides $300,000 to Northwestern University to investigate the field of algebraic topology and its applications. The project, entitled "Evenness in Modern and Classical Homotopy Theory," focuses on advancing the understanding of the unifying concept of "evenness" across algebraic topology, arithmetic geometry, and representation theory. Key research directions include the prismatization of commutative ring spectra and classical questions in unstable homotopy theory. The project aims to drive progress in these areas through the application of recently developed techniques from higher algebra, higher category theory, chromatic homotopy theory, and algebraic K-theory. In addition to the research objectives, the award will support mentorship and professional development activities for graduate students and postdoctoral researchers at Northwestern University. The project period runs from July 15, 2025 to June 30, 2028.
