   Format: MarkdownWhile Prof. Joyal in his [[joyalscatlab:HomePage|joyalscatlab]] keeps the lists of contributors to category theory and to homological algebra, I thought it might be useful to have some complementary list for 2-3 other fields in our nlab. But this could be too much work. So I restrained with [[contributors to algebraic geometry]], as over 20 are alerady present in the nlab anyway ([[algebraic geometry]] has much being intertwined with the development of category theory since Serre and Grothendieck). Created [[Jean-Pierre Serre]] and [[Shigeru Mukai]], wanted also at the Timeline entry; and [[David Mumford]]. This entry should be useful as we do not have top entry of contents for alegbraic geometry. (and I do not plan it soon).

   Format: MarkdownThough this makes it a bit less neat, to make it shorter for printing and viewing, I compactified the too long entry [[contributors to algebraic geometry]] by writing the names starting with a given letter in the same line.
