Abstract

This award provides funding to help defray the expenses of participants in the "Great Plains Operator Theory Symposium (GPOTS) 2016" that will be held from May 23-27, 2016, on the campus of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. This conference is the thirty-sixth installment of the Great Plains Operator Theory Symposium (GPOTS), a series that annually brings together a diverse group of over one-hundred mathematicians whose primary research interests are in operator theory or the theory of operator algebras. Some of the main foci of the 2016 event are the following: deformation/rigidity theory; free probability; recent advances in operator theory; classification of C*-algebras; noncommutative geometry; noncommutative probability; C*-algebras and dynamical systems; operator spaces and their applications. The conference program provides ample opportunity for graduate students, postdocs, and other young scientists to present their work.
