Operator Algebras, Groups, and Applications to Quantum Information

该奖项为美国参与主题研究项目运营商代数、组和量子信息应用提供资金，该项目将于2019年3月11日至6月29日在西班牙马德里的ICMAT研究所举行。会议的重点是算子代数(C*-代数和von Neumann代数)领域的最新发展，以及它与群论和相对年轻的量子信息学科的相互作用。该计划的主要活动包括两个学校、两个研讨会和一个国际会议，主题包括C*-代数和von Neumann代数的分类方面，各种伪装下的顺从性和悖论之间的二分法，以及与量子信息有关的Connes嵌入问题。一些著名的数学家已经同意出席学校、研讨会和国际会议并在会议上发言。这一奖项为早期职业研究人员、代表性不足群体的成员以及不受NSF资助的研究人员提供了参与该计划的机会。组委会将通过一系列不同的活动，努力让目标群体了解这一筹资机会。欲了解更多信息，请访问：https://www.icmat.es/RT/2019/OAGAQI/activities.phpThis奖项反映了国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This award provides funding for US participation in the thematic research program Operator Algebras, Groups, and Applications to Quantum Information that will be held from March 11 to June 29, 2019, at the research institute ICMAT in Madrid, Spain. The conference focuses on recent developments in the field of operator algebras (C*-algebras and von Neumann algebras) and its interactions with group theory and the relatively young subject of quantum information. The main activities of the program consist of two schools, two workshops, and an international conference, and the themes to be addressed include classification aspects of C*-algebras and von Neumann algebras, the dichotomy between amenability and paradoxicality in its various guises, and the Connes embedding problem in relation to quantum information.A number of distinguished mathematicians have agreed to attend and speak in the schools, workshops, and international conference. This award gives early career researchers, members of underrepresented groups, and researchers not funded by NSF an opportunity to participate in this program. The organizing committee will strive to make this funding opportunity known to target groups through a number of different activities. More information is available at: https://www.icmat.es/RT/2019/OAGAQI/activities.phpThis award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
