Organizers: David Gauld, Vaughan Jones, Boris Pavlov
Description:
The aim of our workshop is to introduce participants to current research and methods of the Spectral Theory of
Nonselfadjoint Operators and Resonance Scattering Theory for Periodic Differential Operators, which incorporate both
Harmonic Analysis and Topology on Riemann surfaces with the Geometry of the corresponding Hilbert Spaces. We
also plan to cover some
interesting applications of Spectral and Scattering Theory. The workshop will feature several main series of lectures by
prominent analysts. There will also be scheduled lectures by other participants, organized to some extent into
minisymposia. It is hoped to make provision for impromptu presentations on work, as it develops, arising from
discussions amongst people taking part in the workshop.
Workshop format
There will be two lecture sessions per day 9.30-12.30 and 5-9 (with a dinner break). It is planned to take Wednesday off (details of available activities are not yet available). It is anticipated that participants will want to spend part of this week working amongst themselves and the organizers will do all they can to facilitate this. It is expected that there might be a need to arrange times for informal and impromptu presentations; times for this will be scheduled into the program as the details become known.
Speakers: The following internationally known speakers have agreed to present series of lectures at the workshop, Professor L.Carleson (Stockholm), Professor M.Cowling (Sydney), Professor L.Faddeev (St. Petersburg), Professor D.Sarason (Berkeley), Professor H.Widom (Santa Cruz), Professor C.Sadosky (Washington), Professor S.Treil (Michigan), Professor V.Vinnikov (Rehovot)
