West Coast Operator Algebra Seminar 2002, to be held October 12 - 13, 2002 at the University of Colorado-Boulder

摘要波斯语/Ramsay/Yu这是将于2002年10月12-13日在科罗拉多大学举行的第十届西海岸运营商代数研讨会(WCOAS)的提案。WCOAS是美国西部算符代数学家十年来的传统。研讨会为这些研究人员提供了一个宝贵的机会，让他们了解各自领域的最新情况，促进和加强西方大学之间的联系，并为年轻的研究人员提供一个论坛，在这个论坛上展示他们的最新成果，并与资深数学家讨论这些成果。美国西部和加拿大的算符代数学家的高度集中是WCOAS成功的主要原因之一。

AbstractFarsi/Ramsay/YuThis is a proposal for the tenth West Coast Operator Algebra Seminar (WCOAS),to beheld at the University of Colorado on October 12-13, 2002. The WCOAS is a decade-long tradition among the operator algebraists in the western United States. The Seminar provides an invaluable opportunity for these researchers to stay abreast of their field, fosters and reinforces ties among the western universities, and providesyoung researchers with a forum in which to present their latest results and discuss them with senior mathematicians. The high concentration of operator algebraists in the western United States and Canada has been one of the main reasons for the success of the WCOAS.
