【校庆学术报告-大师讲堂】A short history of classification
George Elliott (University of Toronto)
10:00-11:00, October 18, 2022 Tencent Meeting ID: 399-239-882 (Passcode: 200241)
Abstract:
A better title for the occasion might be “A short history of operator algebras”, except that such a thing does not exist! Either a very long history, or snapshots. Perhaps surprisingly, classification, at least of all settings of algebras (and subalgebras) in which this is now known, does come into contact with much of the overall history of the subject, so perhaps the present title is also impossible! Time will tell.
