Dear colleagues
It is our pleasure to announce this year's special edition of the conference
"Journées Besançon-Neuchâtel d'analyse fonctionnelle"
which will take place in Besançon, France from June 20 to June 23, 2017.
Focusing on the interactions between geometric group theory, functional analysis and non-linear geometry of Banach spaces, the aim of the conference is to bring together researchers and students interested in these fields.
The following speakers have agreed to give a plenary talk:
Gilles Godefroy, Anastasia Khukhro, Tim de Laat, Masato Mimura, Matias Raja, Christian Rosendal (TBC), Mikael de la Salle, Thomas Schlumprecht, Romain Tessera.
You can find more detailed information on our web-page:

Looking forward to seeing you,
The organizing committee
Gilles Lancien
Tony Prochazka
Alain Valette
FINAL(?) ANNOUNCEMENT
A Trimester on "Analysis in Quantum Information Theory” will be held at the
Institut Henri Poincare in Paris, France, from September 4th to December
15th, 2017. The program will focus on mathematical aspects of QIT and,
particularly, on links to broadly understood functional analysis (operator
algebras/spaces/systems, asymptotic geometric analysis) and to all flavors
of probability. As such, it may be of interest to some members of the
Banach mailing list, even though the MSRI semester on “Geometric Functional
Analysis and Applications” (which will take place over the same period) is
arguably a better match.
Planned events include a summer school in early September and three
workshop/conferences.
Courses, seminars, and collaborative research will take place throughout
the duration of the trimester. More information about all activities can be
found at

Registration for the program/events and application for financial support
is available via
http://www.ihp.fr/en/CEB/T3-2017
Please note that in order to apply for financial support you need to
register for the program (indicating the tentative dates of attendance) and
NOT just for a particular event. For US-based researchers, there is a
dedicated NSF grant that can support their participation, see the first of
the above URLs for details.

Dear Colleagues,
This is a Second announcement for a meeting of the Informal Analysis
Seminar, which will be held at the Department of Mathematical
Sciences at Kent State University, April 7 - 9, 2017. This time, the
theme of this meeting will be differentiation in finite and infinite
dimensional spaces.
The seminar will feature talks by
Daniel Azagra (Universidad Complutense de Madrid),
Estibalitz Durand-Cartagena (UNED, Madrid),
Piotr Hajlasz (University of Pittsburgh),
Jesús Jaramillo (Universidad Complutense de Madrid),
Pekka Koskela, (University of Jyväskylä),
Manuel Maestre (University of Valencia),
Vladimir Peller (Michigan State University),
Patrick J. Rabier (University of Pittsburgh),
Pilar Rueda (Universidad de Valencia),
Nageswari Shanmugalingam (University of Cincinnati).
Similar to previous years, the plan of the meeting will be to have THREE
expository, introductory talks on Friday afternoon, April 7,
which definitely will be accessible to graduate students.
The meeting will end by lunchtime on Sunday, April 9. This time the
seminar is supported by Elsevier and Kent State University.
Funding is available to cover all local (and possibly help with
travel) expenses of a limited number of participants. Graduate students,
postdoctoral researchers, and members of underrepresented groups are
particularly encouraged to apply for support.
A poster session will be held for researchers to display their work.
Graduate students are particularly encouraged to submit a poster.
Posters can be submitted electronically in PDF format. Further
information, and an online registration form, can be found online
http://www.math.kent.edu/~zvavitch/informal/Informal_Analysis_Seminar/April…
We encourage you to register AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, but to receive support
for, and/or help with, hotel reservations, please
register-preferably-before MONDAY, MARCH 13, 2017. Finally, please
feel free to forward this email to any colleagues or
students who you think may be interested in attending.
Best regards,
The Kent State Analysis Group
