Inna Zakharevich is an associate professor of mathematics at Cornell University. She obtained her Ph.D. at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and held postdoctoral positions at the University of Chicago and at the Institute for Advanced Study. Her research is primarily in the fields of algebraic K-theory and scissors congruence.
This book offers a modern introduction to characteristic classes and topological K-theory, two foundational topics in algebraic topology. It incorporates contemporary tools such as category theory, spectra, and modern homotopy theory, making the material more accessible and relevant for today’s graduate students.
