Volume 2019/2020
Education
MSc Programme in Mathematics
Content
We will cover various topics in operator algebras, with the precise content depending on the interests of the participants, for example
- Dynamical systems, C*-algebras, and crossed products
- K- and KK-theory
- K-homology and spectral triples
- Groups, groupoids and C*-algebras
- Graph C*-algebras
