Welcome to the home page of the research network Operator Algebra and Dynamics.

Operator Algebra and Dynamics is a research network consisting of 8 Nordic research groups. The purpose of the network is to promote mobility and cooperation between operator algebraist in the Nordic countries working on the interplay between operator algebra and dynamics. The network is supported by a grant running from 1 August 2009 to 31 July 2012 from NordForsk. Most of the funding is earmarked for supporting research visit between the participating groups, especially for young people. The network will also arrange workshops, seminars, summer schools and similar events.

Upcoming events supported by the network

Master Class on Cuntz-Pimsner Algebras: Applications and generalizations, The University of Copenhagen, Denmark, 5-9 July 2010.

The NestFest in honor of Ryszard Nest's 60th birthday, The University of Copenhagen, Denmark, September 2-5, 2010.

AGMP-6 Workshop, Tjärnö, Sweden, 25-31 October 2010
