Haynes Robert Miller (born January 29, 1948, in Princeton, New Jersey) [1] is an American mathematician specializing in algebraic topology.. Miller completed his undergraduate study at Harvard University and earned his PhD in 1974 under the supervision of John Coleman Moore at Princeton University with thesis Some Algebraic Aspects of the Adams–Novikov Spectral Sequence.

In mathematics, topological modular forms (tmf) is the name of a spectrum that describes a generalized cohomology theory.In concrete terms, for any integer n there is a topological space , and these spaces are equipped with certain maps between them, so that for any topological space X, one obtains an abelian group structure on the set of homotopy classes of continuous maps from X to .
In mathematics, specifically algebraic topology, the mapping cylinder [1] of a continuous function between topological spaces and is the quotient = (([,])) / where the denotes the disjoint union, and ~ is the equivalence relation generated by
Haynes Miller: Sullivan conjecture: classifying spaces: Miller proved the version on mapping BG to a finite complex. 1987: Grigory Margulis: Oppenheim conjecture: diophantine approximation: Margulis proved the conjecture with ergodic theory methods. 1989: Vladimir I. Chernousov: Weil's conjecture on Tamagawa numbers: algebraic groups
Miller's theorem generalizes to a version of Sullivan's conjecture in which the action on is allowed to be non-trivial. In, [ 3 ] Sullivan conjectured that η is a weak equivalence after a certain p-completion procedure due to A. Bousfield and D. Kan for the group G = Z / 2 {\displaystyle G=Z/2} .
In mathematics, specifically in algebraic topology, the Eilenberg–Zilber theorem is an important result in establishing the link between the homology groups of a product space and those of the spaces and .
In the simplest possible case the relationship is that of a tensor product, but for applications it is very often necessary to apply certain tools of homological algebra to express the answer. A Künneth theorem or Künneth formula is true in many different homology and cohomology theories, and the name has become generic.
In the above example, a connection with classical Galois theory can be seen by regarding ^ as the profinite Galois group Gal(F /F) of the algebraic closure F of any finite field F, over F. That is, the automorphisms of F fixing F are described by the inverse limit, as we take larger and larger finite splitting fields over F .
