K-Theory of C*-Algebras

 

Schedule:

  1. Chapter 1 – C*-algebra theory: Lorna Richardson
This reading group will be an introduction to the K-theory of C*-algebras. This is a powerful and widely used tool in operator algebra theory which associates certain invariants to C*-algebras. The aim is to follow chapters 1-4 and 8-12 of the book An Introduction to K-Theory for C*-Algebras by Rørdam, Larson and Lausten, with the aim to cover approximately one chapter per week.
 
Organizer: Lorna Richardson
When: Wednesdays 9am-11am
Where: Room 110, Mathematics and Statistics building, Glasgow, and online on request.
