Operator Algebras & Applications

by A. Katavolos

Operator Algebras & Applications Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

During the last few years, the theory of operator algebras, particularly non-self-adjoint operator algebras, has evolved dramatically, experiencing both international growth and interfacing with other important areas. The present volume presents a survey of some of the latest developments in the field in a form that is detailed enough to be accessible to advanced graduate students as well as researchers in the field. Among the topics treated are: operator spaces, Hilbert modules, limit algebras, reflexive algebras and subspaces, relations to basis theory, C* algebraic quantum groups, endomorphisms of operator algebras, conditional expectations and projection maps, and applications, particularly to wavelet theory. The volume also features an historical paper offering a new approach to the Pythagoreans' discovery of irrational numbers.

Book News Annotation:

The proceedings of the August 1996 conference contain the 15 contributions of the main speakers. Themes include operator spaces; abstract operator algebras and their Hilbert modules; interaction with ring theory; non-self-adjoint operator algebras (limit algebras, reflexive algebras and subspaces, relations to basis theory); C*- algebraic quantum groups; endomorphisms of operator algebras, conditional expectations and projection maps; and applications, particularly to wavelet theory. A special lecture given by Stelios Negrepontis on the Pythagoreans is also presented.
