Speaker: Bruno Braga (University of Virginia)
Title: Bringing uniform Roe algebras to Banach space theory
Abstract. Given a metric space $X$, the uniform Roe algebra of $X$, denoted by $C^*_u(X)$, is a $C^*$-algebra which encodes many of $X$'s large scale geometric properties. In this talk, I will give an introduction on those objects and give an overview of the current state of the literature on questions related to rigidity of uniform Roe algebras (i.e., on how much of the large scale geometry of a metric space is encoded in its uniform Roe algebra). The second half of the talk will focus on bringing these mathematical objects to the context of Banach space/lattice theory.
