Analysis & Quantum
The section's research covers a wide range of fields related to analysis and quantum information theory, as well as history of modern mathematics.
Visit the QMATH Center website for more information on mathematical physical and quantum information theory and the Quantum for Life center for information on combining research in quantum physics, mathematics, chemistry and data science.
Our group carries out research in functional analysis, operator algebras, C*-algebras, von Neumann algebras, Banach algebras, symbolic dynamical systems and in descriptive set theory.
