Description:
Title: From Euler to Deligne: The Unified Nature of Mathematics
Abstract: In this general talk we present a historical bridge from the work of Euler , through the work of Deligne, to recent results in algebraic geometry and equivariant homotopy theory. The historical development of the so-called "regulator maps" keeps a common thread linking number theory, complex analysis, differential and algebraic geometry, and homotopy theory. The talk is accessible to undergraduate students.
