Like the first Abel Symposium, held in 2004, the Abel Symposium 2015 focused on operator algebras. It is interesting to see the remarkable advances that have been made in operator algebras over these years, which strikingly illustrate the vitality of the field. A total of 26 talks were given at the symposium on a variety of themes, all highlighting the richness of the subject. The field of operator algebras was created in the 1930s and was motivated by problems of quantum mechanics. It has subsequently developed well beyond its initial intended realm of applications and expanded into such diverse areas of mathematics as representation theory, dynamical systems, differential geometry, number theory and quantum algebra. One branch, known as "noncommutative geometry", has become a powerful tool for studying phenomena that are beyond the reach of classical analysis. This volume includes research papers that present new results, surveys that discuss the development of a specific line of research, and articles that offer a combination of survey and research. These contributions provide a multifaceted portrait of beautiful mathematics that both newcomers to the field of operator algebras and seasoned researchers alike will appreciate.
Based on presentations given at the NordForsk Network Closing Conference Operator Algebra and Dynamics, held in Gjaargarour, Faroe Islands, in May 2012, this book features high quality research contributions and review articles by researchers associated with the NordForsk network and leading experts that explore the fundamental role of operatoralgebras and dynamical systems in mathematics with possible applications to physics, engineering and computer science. It covers the following topics: von Neumann algebras arising from discrete measured groupoids, purely infinite Cuntz-Krieger algebras, filteredK-theory over finite topological spaces, "C*"-algebras associated to shift spaces (or subshifts), graph"C*"-algebras, irrational extended rotationalgebras that are shown to be"C*"-alloys, free probability, renewal systems, the Grothendieck Theorem for jointly completelybounded bilinear forms on"C*"-algebras, Cuntz-Li algebrasassociatedwith the"a"-adic numbers, crossed products of injective endomorphisms (the so-called Stacey crossedproducts), the interplay between dynamical systems, operator algebras and wavelets on fractals, "C*"-completions of the Hecke algebra of a Hecke pair, semiprojective"C*-"algebras, and the topologicaldimension of type I"C*"-algebras. "Operator Algebra and Dynamics"will serve as a useful resource for a broad spectrum of researchers and students in mathematics, physics, and engineering. "
