- Banach spaces and locally convex spaces (MSc) (6 weeks, starting in March)
- Banach algebras and spectral theory (MSc) (6 weeks, starting in May)
Please see the website to register and for further information
The following (free) online course will run throughout the second semester of 2022:
South African Theory and Computational School: Mathematical Structures
It is presented by Zurab Janelidze and other members of the Mathematical Structures Research Programme at NITheCS. To enroll, please send an email asap to both of the following addresses: zurab@sun.ac.za and satacs@nithecs.ac.za.
The course is aimed at postgraduate students and academics in theoretical and computational sciences. The course will introduce some of the basic “mathematical structures” (sets equipped with a structure a la Bourbaki) that play a fundamental role in mathematics as well as its applications in theoretical physics and computer science. See https://nithecs.ac.za/south-african-theory-and-computational-school/ for more information.
Note that this course is different from the 6-week NGA Category Theory Course starting 1st of August, presented by Zurab Janelidze, for which one can register at the following link: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScBYUdY575HTvn54_jp0TS09bivaSk25NDJqUIdkQKH6xy5QQ/viewform
