Friday seminar by Thorsten Reusch

Claus Madsen, senior advisor at the European Southern Observatory (ESO).

Yoshiko Ogata, University of Tokyo, will give a talk with title: Approximating macroscopic observables in quantum spin systems with commuting matrices

Abstract: Macroscopic observables in a quantum spin system are spatial means of local observables in a UHF algebra. One of their properties is that they commute asymptotically as the system size goes to infinity. It is not true that any given set of asymptotically commuting matrices can be approximated by commuting ones in the norm topology. The main statement of this talk is that this is true for macroscopic observables.  

Bin Yu (Departments of Statistics and Electrical Engineering & Computer Science, UC Berkeley) will talk about

Spectral clustering and high-dim stochastic block model for undirected and directed graphs  

Friday seminar by Wayne Getz

Christine Lindstr?m, f?rsteamanuensis i naturfag, H?gskolen i Oslo og Akershus.

The seminar on the slime mold Dictyostelium discoideum will be held by Dr Monica Hagedorn.

Dr Monica Hagedorn is a distinguished researcher from Bernhard Nocht Institute for Tropical Medicine, Hamburg, Germany. She has several publications describing how the social amoebae D. discoideum reveal new knowledge in infectious diseases.

Jyotishman Bhowmick, UiO, will give a talk with title: Deformation of operator algebras by Borel cocycles

Abstract:Given a coaction of a locally compact group on a C^* algebra and fixing a cocycle on G, we discuss a method to deform A into another C^* algebra, thus generalizing  the works of Kasprzak, Yamashita and Rieffel. This is a joint work with S. Neshveyev and A.S. Sangha.

Stuart White (University of Glasgow, UK) will talk on "Z-stability and central sequences".

Abstract: Over recent years, tensorial absorption of the Jiang-Su algebra $\mathcal Z$ has become a particularly prominent property of $C^*$-algebras. In this talk, I'll explain what this means, and why this is the case; I'll also discuss methods for establishing ``$\mathcal Z$''-stability using central sequence, and some more general properties of central sequence algebras. The talk will end with a recent result showing that for a simple separable unital nuclear C*-algebra, whose extremal traces are compact and of finite covering dimension $\mathcal Z$-stability can be detected by a comparison property of the Cuntz semigroup (this result is joint work with Andrew Toms and Wilhelm Winter, which has also been independently discovered by Eberhard Kirchberg and Mickael R?rdam, and by Yasuhiko Sato).
