DESCRIPTION:Dr. Marc Hoyois (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) \nThe 
 study of vector bundles on algebraic varieties is a classical topic at the
  intersection of geometry and commutative algebra. In its algebraic form i
 t is the study of finitely generated projective modules over commutative r
 ings. There are many long-standing conjectures and open questions about al
 gebraic vector bundles\, such as: is every topological vector bundle over 
 complex projective space algebraic? In recent years\, there have been a nu
 mber of significant developments in this area made possible using the homo
 topy theory of algebraic varieties introduced by Morel and Voevodsky in th
 e late 90s.\n The talk will provide some background on such questions and
  discuss some of these recent achievements.\n \n
