Workshop in Linear Analysis and Probability Department of Mathematics Texas A&M University Summer 2005

The Summer 2005 session of the Workshop in Linear Analysis and Probability at Texas A&M University will be in session from July 5 until August 9. For information about the Workshop, consult the Workshop Home Page, URL http://www.math.tamu.edu/research/workshops/linanalysis/

The Informal Regional Functional Analysis Seminar (SUMIRFAS) will be held August 5-7. This year SUMIRFAS is dedicated to Haskell P. Rosenthal on the occasion of his retirement from the University of Texas at Austin. Haskell was one of the original organizers of UTAMIRFAS, the forerunner of SUMIRFAS. There will be a banquet in Haskell's honor on August 5. The usual SUMIRFAS dinner will be on August 6.

Alvaro Arias, Edward Odell, and Thomas Schlumprecht are organizing a Haskell Fest Mini-Conference that will take place on August 4 and the morning of August 5.

Ronald Douglas and Ciprian Foias are organizing a Mini-Conference on "Invariant and Hyperinvariant Subspaces - Old and New" that will take place August 8-9. This Mini-Conference is in honor of Carl Pearcy on the occasion of his 70th birthday. On August 8 there will be a banquet in Carl's honor.

The Workshop is supported in part by grants from the National Science Foundation (NSF). Minorities, women, graduate students, and young researchers are especially encouraged to attend.
