This award provides funding to help defray the expenses of participants in the "Eleventh East Coast Operator Algebras Symposium" that will be held from October 12-13, 2013, on the campus of the University of Cincinnati.
This event is the eleventh installment of a series that annually brings together a diverse group of mathematicians whose primary research interests are in operator algebras and related topics. Among the topics to be discussed by speakers at this year's meeting are the following: classification of C*-algebras (the Elliott program); noncommutative geometry; C*-algebras and the Novikov conjecture; rigidity and deformation theory; free probability and its applications; subfactors and their invariants; C*-algebras and dynamical systems. The conference program provides ample opportunity for graduate students, postdocs, and other young scientists to present their work.
