Opis

The subject of operator algebras has experienced tremendous growth in recent years with significant applications to areas within algebraic mathematics as well as allied areas such as single operator theory, non-self-adjoint operator algegras, K-theory, knot theory, ergodic theory, and mathematical physics. This book makes recent developments in operator algebras accessible to the non-specialist.
