Brief description An important part of mathematics studies spatial reality using the computational tools of algebra; one particular approach is known as homotopy theory. Homotopy theory has increasingly complex interactions with other parts of mathematics: this project will tame this complexity using the tools of category theory developed in Sydney over the last forty years.
