## Kent Spectral Theory

Apr 14 2014 - 00:00
Apr 17 2014 - 23:59
Venue:

University of Kent, Canterbury, Kent CT2 7NF

Short description of the event:

The idea of the conference is to promote exchange of information between international experts and people in the UK working in different areas of operator theory and analysis. We expect that this will be fruitful for both of these branches of mathematics and will point the way forward to new research questions.

Supported by University of Kent Faculty of Sciences, the London Mathematical Society, European Union Marie Curie Action

During the last few decades operator theory and its applications in various fields, such as hydrodynamics, quantum mechanics, quantum optics, and quantum field theory have been a quickly developing branch of mathematics. This area is strongly influenced by modern analysis, including modern real and complex analysis.

Short description of the event:

The Young Functional Analysts’ Workshop (YFAW) is an event aimed at early-stage researchers (postgraduates and postdocs) in functional analysis and related areas.

The workshop has been running successfully for several years now, with previous meetings having been held in Leeds, Newcastle, York, Oxford and Sheffield. YFAW offers participants an opportunity both to present their own work in front of a sympathetic audience, and to get to know less familiar areas of current research in functional analysis through talks given by other young researchers as well as invited speakers. All participants are encouraged to take advantage of the friendly and welcoming environment and give a talk, but those who would prefer not to are equally welcome.

Venue:

London, UK

Short description of the event:

The Women in Mathematics Day is an annual event organised by the London Mathematical Society for women in mathematics to meet together for a day of talks and discussion groups.

The talks are given by women mathematicians from a range of disciplines and who are at various stages in their careers.

The event is aimed in particular at postgraduates, final year undergraduates and those at an early stage in their career. The Women in Mathematics Day provides an opportunity to meet and talk with women who are active and successful in mathematics. Participants from previous meetings have found this opportunity useful and beneficial.

While women are especially encouraged to attend this day, men are certainly not excluded from these events.
