Presentation

The research school will provide a useful background to understand several of the very active research subjects in the wide area of functional analysis. This includes Riesz spaces and Stochastics processes, function theory, differential operators, operator theory on various and natural Banach spaces, some notions of geometry of Banach spaces, semigroup theory and its links with applications, without omitting an introduction to harmonic analysis. This research school will give to the students a flavour of several seminal open problems on which a wide international community of researchers is working actively. It will be useful for students who could then participate to well-known international conferences such as IWOTA (every year) or Banach Algebras (every couple of years).
