IWOTA 2005 - International Workshop on Operator Theory and Applications

The Sixteenth International Workshop on Operator Theory and Applications is being organized at the University of Connecticut, Storrs, USA, where it will be held from Sunday, 24 July to Wednesday, 27 July, 2005. The purpose of IWOTA 2005 is to bring together mathematicians and engineers interested in operator theory and its applications. Adhering to a tradition started at the last IWOTA meetings, the meeting will be focused on a few special themes, without losing sight of the general IWOTA mission. Our special interest areas are:

operator theory and function theory,
system theory and control theory,
structured matrices and efficient computations.

Apart from these, we welcome proposals on special sessions, especially in traditional IWOTA areas. The list of plenary and semi-plenary speakers includes:

Israel Gohberg,

William Helton.

M.A.Kaashoek,

Joseph Ball,

A.Dijksma,

Nikolai Nikolski,

Ilya Spitkovsky,

Lev Sakhnovich,

James Rovnyak,

Percy Deift,

Hugo Woerdeman,

Heinz Langer,

Eugene Tyrtyshnikov,

Joachim Rosenthal,

Paul van Dooren,

This IWOTA meeting will be the sixteenth in a series of highly successful IWOTA meetings. The previous IWOTA meetings were held in Santa Monica (1981), Rehovot (1983), Amsterdam (1985), Mesa AZ (1987), Rotterdam (1989), Sapporo (1991), Vienna (1993), Regensburg (1995), Bloomington (1995), Groningen (1998), Bordeaux (2000), Faro (2000), Blacksburg (2002) and Cagliari (2003), Newcastle (2004). The organizers of the present meeting intend to adhere to the high standards set by these previous meetings.

We look forward to seeing you in Storrs!
