Recent developments on algebraic K-theory and motive theory

Theme: The objectives of this workshop are
1. to introduce algebraic K-theory of spaces introduced by Waldhausen and
non-connected K-theory (negative K-theory) of Bass, Thomason-Trobaugh and Schlichting etc. for non-experts.
2. to report recent progress of open problems below in motive theory and algebraic K-theory:
Tate conjecture, Standard conjecture, Hodge conjecture, Beilinson conjecture, Gersten conjecture,
Weibel's K-dimensional conjecture and so on. In particular, we emphasize the logical connection among these conjectures.
