• 1341 - Arbeitsgemeinschaft: Sofic Entropy 

      [OWR-2013-50] Workshop Report 2013,50 (2013) - (06 Oct - 11 Oct 2013)
      The notion of soficity for a group is a weak type of finite approximation property that simultaneously generalizes both amenability and residual finiteness. In 2008 L. Bowen discovered how it can be used to significantly ...
    • 1335 - C*-Algebren 

      [OWR-2013-43] Workshop Report 2013,43 (2013) - (25 Aug - 31 Aug 2013)
      C*-algebras play an important role in many modern areas of mathematics, like Noncommutative Geometry and Topology, Dynamical Systems, Harmonic Analysis and others. The conference “C*-algebras” brings together leading experts ...

      [OWR-2013-14] Workshop Report 2013,14 (2013) - (17 Mar - 23 Mar 2013)
      The workshop has brought together experts in the broad field of partial differential equations with highly heterogeneous coefficients. Analysts and computational and applied mathematicians have shared results and ideas on ...
    • 1337 - Noncommutative Geometry 

      [OWR-2013-45] Workshop Report 2013,45 (2013) - (08 Sep - 14 Sep 2013)
      Noncommutative Geometry applies ideas from geometry to mathematical structures determined by noncommuting variables. This meeting emphasized the connections of Noncommutative Geometry to number theory and ergodic theory.
    • 1333 - Nonlinear Waves and Dispersive Equations 

      [OWR-2013-41] Workshop Report 2013,41 (2013) - (11 Aug - 17 Aug 2013)
      Nonlinear dispersive equations are models for nonlinear waves in a wide range of physical contexts. Mathematically they display an interplay between linear dispersion and nonlinear interactions, which can result in a wide ...
