| Jun 20, 2011 at 18:10 | comment | added | Tim Porter | It may be also worth looking at Ronnie Brown's page: pages.bangor.ac.uk/~mas010/hdaweb2.htm since he was one of the first to coin the term higher dimensional algebra and in particular higher dimensional group theory. | |

| Jun 19, 2011 at 21:41 | comment | added | Todd Trimble | Noah means this: math.ucr.edu/home/baez/TWF.html. A major, perhaps the predominant theme, is higher-dimensional algebra. By the way, have you looked at the series of papers by Baez and assorted co-authors which have the words Higher-Dimensional Algebra followed by a Roman numeral? Again, these should keep you busy for a while. | |
