K-Theory Conferences

The K-Theory Foundation (KTF) sponsors conferences and workshops broadly related to K-theory.
Organizers of upcoming events taking place Jan. 1,2026-March 14, 2027 may submit a short proposal per email to the KTF President, Marc Levine [marc.levine at uni-due.de], providing some details about their meeting, such as the dates, expected speakers and target audience, and an estimate of the financial help needed. 

The KTF review process will start in December, 2025,
applications received by Dec. 1, 2025 will be given priority.

Conferences which the Foundation has supported to date include the following:

  1. The Beijing Satellite Meeting on K-theory and related topics of the 2014 ICM in Seoul.
  2. Cuntz-Pimsner Cross-Pollination, a workshop at the Lorentz Center, Leiden, June 2018.
