AAC minicourse by Professor Matej Bresar

During the week of September 9 to September 15, 2018, Atlantic Algebra Centre organizes a mini course “Functional Identities and Zero Product Determined Algebras” by Prof. Matej Bresar. Functional identities are an important combinatorial tool applicable to problems in noncommutative and nonassociative algebra, linear algebra, and operator theory. They have been used in an essential way for the solution of the well-known Herstein’s Lie map conjectures, which remained open for three decades. Matej Brešar was one of the authors of the solution. Dr Brešar is Professor of Mathematics at the University of Ljubljana and the University of Maribor. He gave plenary talks at a number of conferences and workshops, including some organized by Atlantic Algebra Centre. He has published over 150 research papers, is a co-author of the books “Functional Identities” (Birkhäuser, 2007) and “Introduction to Noncommutative Algebra” (Springer, 2014). Member of Slovenian Academy of Sciences and Arts.
