This three-day conference celebrates the 60th birthday and influential career of Igor Kriz, whose groundbreaking contributions have shaped modern perspectives in homotopy theory and its interactions with physics. This special event will gather leading researchers and early-career mathematicians from around the world for a series of stimulating lectures, discussions, and collaborations.

The conference will spotlight cutting-edge developments in equivariant and motivic homotopy theory, as well as their deep connections to mathematical physics and symplectic topology. Invited talks by prominent experts will explore recent advances and open problems at the rich interface of these fields, honoring the wide-ranging impact of Kriz’s work.
