Classical Analysis Conference

University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, NC

Friday Sept. 7 - Sunday, Sept. 9, 2007

Preliminary Schedule

The conference will be on the general topic of classical analysis. One of the topics emphasized will be the works of X. Tolsa. We view classical analysis to include a broad range of areas: Banach Spaces, analytic functions, geometric function theory, operators on function spaces, several complex variables, etc.

Two of the one-hour addresses at the conference will be given by Professor C.  Sundberg discussing the proofs of Tolsa’s theorem; other invited addresses will be by J. McCarthy, A. Nicolau, K. Seip and S. Richter .

The conference is funded by the National Science Foundation, the Department of Mathematics, the University of North Carolina and MSRI.

We encourage minorities, women and younger Ph.D.'s to consider attending.

 The NSF grant will provide at least partial funding for expenses of graduate students and recent Ph.D.'s with no other source of support. Application forms for financial support will be available at the conference.

Foreign attendees really need something other than an H1B Visa in order to receive reimbursement for per diem expenses, for example, a J1  Visa or a waiver for business. The funding agency (NSF) has no money for travel from points outside the

United States.
