Topic: Introduction to von Neumann algebras and free probability
Speaker: Dr. Liu Weihua, Zhejiang University (ZJU)
Host: Wang Shi
Venue: Room S408, SCA Building
Abstract:
In this talk, I will brief introduce the theory of von Nueumann aglebras and a probabilistic method introduced by Dan Voiculescu for solving Free group von Neumann algebras isomorphism problem. In the end, we will show a deep connection between free probability and random matrix theory.
