NSF-CBMS Regional Conference in Math Sciences: "Coordinates in Operator Algebra: Groupoids & Categories, Their Representations and Applications", May 22-26, l990.

该项目是CBMS数学科学区域会议，题为“算子代数中的坐标：群拟和类及其表示和应用”。这次会议将于1990年5月22日至26日在德克萨斯基督教大学举行。算子代数中协调技术的使用分别出现在自伴随理论和非自伴随理论中，每个学科的实践者在很大程度上不熟悉这两个领域的技术和目的的共性。主要讲师是爱荷华大学的Paul Muhly教授，他的讲座将以非技术方式介绍协调技术，展示它如何自然地出现在关于自伴随算子代数和非自伴随算子代数的结构问题中，以及这两种代数在各种情况下的应用。特别注意的是将自伴随理论与非自伴随理论以及与纯代数的结果相互交织。

This project is a CBMS Regional Conference in the Mathematical Sciences entitled "Coordinates in Operator Algebras: Groupoids and Categories, their Representations and Applications". This conference will be held at Texas Christian University May 22-26, 1990. The use of coordinatization techniques in operator algebra arose independently in the self-adjoint and the non-self-adjoint theories, and practioneers of each subject are largely unfamiliar with the commonality of technique and purpose in the two areas. The principal lecturer is Professor Paul Muhly of the University of Iowa, whose lectures will introduce coordinatization techniques in a non-technical fashion, showing how it arises naturally in structural questions about both self-adjoint and non-self-adjoint operator algebras, and in applications of both types of algebras to a variety of situations. Particular attention will be paid to intertwining results from the self- adjoint theory with the non-self-adjoint theory and with pure algebra.
