NSF/CBMS Regional Conference in the Mathematical Sciences -- Topological and algebraic regularity properties of nuclear C*-algebras

该奖项将支持将于2012年夏天在路易斯安那大学拉斐特分校举行的关于核C*-代数主题的NSF/CMBS区域会议。主要演讲人将是明斯特大学的威廉·温特教授。该奖项将支持24名处于职业生涯不同阶段的参与者。会议将集中讨论温特博士和他的同事在核C*-代数及其与拓扑动力系统的联系方面取得的最新进展。课程将设计为研究生和数学家只有C*-代数的基本知识，并将讨论为研究生提供良好研究机会的新的开放问题。

This award will support an NSF/CMBS regional conference to be held at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette in the summer of 2012 on the topic of nuclear C*-algebras. The principal speaker will be Professor Wilhelm Winter from the University of Muenster. This award will support 24 participants at different stages of their careers. The conference will focus on the recent advances made by Dr. Winter and his colleagues in nuclear C*-algebras and their connections with topological dynamical systems. Lectures will be designed to be accessible to graduate students and mathematicians with only basic knowledge of C*-algebras, and new open problems which present good research opportunities for graduate students will be discussed.
