Welcome to commalg.org!

commalg.org is...

a website for the commutative algebra community. In addition to news items and job postings of interest to commutative algebraists, we list all the conferences we hear about that focus at least partially on commutative algebra, and sometimes some photos of them. We also maintain as complete a list of commutative algebraists as possible, and a huge list of links to websites of interest.

current news: Andrei Zelevinsky 1953–2013 April 11th, 2013 (4 responses)

AZWe are saddened by the news that Andrei Zelevinsky passed away on April 10.

Andrei was best known for his work with Gelfand and Kapranov on “Discriminants, Resultants, and Multidimensional Determinants” and for the introduction with Fomin of the theory of cluster algebras. There is a conference in his honor planned in just two weeks. We will update this post if there is any change to that plan.

update: The webpage for the conference says that the conference will continue as previously planned, in memory of Andrei.
