U.S.-Japan Joint Seminar: Mapping of Operator Algebras / Philadelphia, Pennsylvania / May 1988

该奖项将支持美国研究人员参加由宾夕法尼亚大学Richard Kadison教授和日本京都大学Huzihiro Araki教授联合组织的“算子代数的映射”研讨会。美国、日本和应邀参加的第三国与会者将于1988年5月在宾夕法尼亚大学举行会议。研讨会将专门讨论算子代数映射这一主题的最新发展，以及这些发展对我们理解非交换分析和几何的应用。算子代数领域正在迅速发展，美国和日本的科学家都处于这项研究的前沿。本次研讨会将提供一个交流思想的论坛，特别是在算子代数在其他科学领域（如物理学）的应用方面。

This award will support the participation of U.S. researchers in a seminar on the "Mapping of Operator Algebras," organized jointly by Professor Richard Kadison of the University of Pennsylvania and Professor Huzihiro Araki of Kyoto University, Japan. United States, Japanese and invited third-country participants will meet at the University of Pennsylvania during May 1988. The seminar will be devoted to discussions of recent developments in the subject of mappings of operator algebras and to the applications that have been and are being made of these developments to our understanding of non-commutative analysis and geometry. The field of operator algebras is rapidly advancing, with scientists from both the United States and Japan at the forefront of this research. This seminar will provide a forum for the exchange of ideas, particularly in the application of operator algebras to other fields of science such as physics.
