In 1996 he received the Steele Prize for mathematical exposition for his text Intersection Theory. [1] Fulton is a member of the United States National Academy of Sciences since 1997; a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences from 1998, and was elected a foreign member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in 2000.

In mathematics, the Fulton–Hansen connectedness theorem is a result from intersection theory in algebraic geometry, for the case of subvarieties of projective space with codimension large enough to make the intersection have components of dimension at least 1. It is named after William Fulton and Johan Hansen, who proved it in 1979.
William Fulton in Intersection Theory (1984) writes ... if A and B are subvarieties of a non-singular variety X, the intersection product A · B should be an equivalence class of algebraic cycles closely related to the geometry of how A ∩ B, A and B are situated in X. Two extreme cases have been most familiar.
Fulton and MacPherson extended the Chow ring to singular varieties by defining the "operational Chow ring" and more generally a bivariant theory associated to any morphism of schemes. [13] A bivariant theory is a pair of covariant and contravariant functors that assign to a map a group and a ring respectively.
In algebraic geometry, the scheme-theoretic intersection of closed subschemes X, Y of a scheme W is , the fiber product of the closed immersions,. It is denoted by X ∩ Y {\displaystyle X\cap Y} . Locally, W is given as Spec R {\displaystyle \operatorname {Spec} R} for some ring R and X , Y as Spec ( R / I ) , Spec ( R / J ...

Let X be a Riemann surface.Then the intersection number of two closed curves on X has a simple definition in terms of an integral. For every closed curve c on X (i.e., smooth function :), we can associate a differential form of compact support, the Poincaré dual of c, with the property that integrals along c can be calculated by integrals over X:
