    Contemporary Mathematics
    Volume: 6712016; 267 pp
    MSC: Primary 46; 19; 22

    This volume contains the proceedings of the AMS Special Session Operator Algebras and Their Applications: A Tribute to Richard V. Kadison, held from January 10–11, 2015, in San Antonio, Texas.

    Richard V. Kadison has been a towering figure in the study of operator algebras for more than 65 years. His research and leadership in the field have been fundamental in the development of the subject, and his influence continues to be felt through his work and the work of his many students, collaborators, and mentees.

    Among the topics addressed in this volume are the Kadison-Kaplanksy conjecture, classification of \(C^*\)-algebras, connections between operator spaces and parabolic induction, spectral flow, \(C^*\)-algebra actions, von Neumann algebras, and applications to mathematical physics.

    Readership

    Graduate students and research mathematicians interested in Banach algebras and operator algebras.
