    Fields Institute Communications
    Volume: 191998; 316 pp
    MSC: Primary 55

    This volume presents the proceedings of workshops on stable homotopy theory and on unstable homotopy theory held at The Fields Institute as part of the homotopy program during the year 1996. The papers in the volume describe current research in the subject, and all included works were refereed. Rather than being a summary of work to be published elsewhere, each paper is the unique source for the new material it contains.

    The book contains current research from international experts in the subject area, and presents open problems with directions for future research.

    Titles in this series are co-published with the Fields Institute for Research in Mathematical Sciences (Toronto, Ontario, Canada).

    Readership

    Graduate students and research mathematicians working in homotopy theory and related areas.
