There have recently been new results on extending various aspects of the theory of KMS states from its original context of von Neumann algebras to C*-algebras and understanding the more complex structure that arises in the C*-setting (see for example...

In this talk we discuss some new trends and developments in variational analysis and its numerous applications in both finite-dimensional and infinite-dimensional spaces, emphasizing those to optimization and equilibrium problems, robust stability...

Special PIMS Seminar

The course will focus on models of neuronal networks and infectious diseases on networks. The first half of the course will introduce deterministic models of infectious diseases, then proceed to network models. Some case studies of particular...

In this talk I will describe some recent results concerning the connection between the bubblesort sorting algorithm and certain integer sequences used to analyze various juggling patterns. The analysis leads to new results on the joint distribution...

The Summer School will feature three 10-Lecture Series: 1. The structure of nuclear C*-algebras (Brown and Toms) 2. KK-theory and the Baum-Connes conjecture (Emerson and Meyer) 3. C*-dynamical systems (Laca and Neshveyev)

The focus of the conference will be on applications of Kasparov's theory, non-commutative topology, index theory, representation theory, C*-dynamical systems from number theory, symmetries and equilibrium.
