Dear Colleagues,
The Analysis group at Kent State University is happy to announce a meeting of the Informal Analysis Seminar, which will be held at the Department of Mathematical Sciences at Kent State University, February 24-25. The seminar will feature plenary speakers
Robert Connelly (Cornell University),
and
Peter Sternberg (Indiana University)
Each speaker will deliver a four hour lecture series designed to be accessible for graduate students.
Funding is available to cover the local and 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/informal
We encourage you to register as soon as possible, but to receive support and/or help with hotel reservation, please register before January 29, 2018.
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
We are sorry to announce that Victor Lomonosov passed away last night after a long struggle with cancer.
Victor received his bachelor's degree from Moscow State University in 1969 and his PhD from Kharkov State University in 1974. He achieved mathematical prominence for his dissertation work on the Invariant Subspace Problem, which, in particular, contained the famous "Theorem of Lomonosov." The quality and originality of his research was immediately recognized internationally, but, as a soviet Jew, Victor was denied access to appropriate academic positions. He was shunted to obscure computer programming jobs, which severely restricted his mathematical research and publishing of papers. Victor came to Kent State in the fall of 1990, during the disintegration of the Soviet Union, and was appointed at the rank of Associate Professor in fall 1991, becoming full Professor in 1999. He continued to publish research of exceptional quality and great originality, often straddling conventional boundaries in mathematics. In addition to his contributions to the Invariant Subspace Problem, he was particularly recognized for his work on the Bishop-Phelps Theorem and Burnside's Theorem.
Victor was an important player in the development of our Analysis Group and was a dear friend to many of us. We will miss his unique mathematical talent and his wonderful sense of humor.
