Abstract: Over recent years, tensorial absorption of the Jiang-Su algebra $\mathcal Z$ has become a particularly prominent property of $C^*$-algebras. In this talk, I'll explain what this means, and why this is the case; I'll also discuss methods for establishing ``$\mathcal Z$''-stability using central sequence, and some more general properties of central sequence algebras. The talk will end with a recent result showing that for a simple separable unital nuclear C*-algebra, whose extremal traces are compact and of finite covering dimension $\mathcal Z$-stability can be detected by a comparison property of the Cuntz semigroup (this result is joint work with Andrew Toms and Wilhelm Winter, which has also been independently discovered by Eberhard Kirchberg and Mickael Rørdam, and by Yasuhiko Sato).

Abstract: The Kolmogorov decomposition of positive scalar valued kernels has played an important role in applications of operator theory to function theory. It has been vastly generalised, finding its apotheosis in the result of Baretto, Bhat, Liebscher and Skeide which states that a positive $L(A,B)$-valued kernel, $A$ and $B$ $C^*$-algebras, has a Kolmogorov decomposition if and only if it is completely positive; that is, the restriction of the kernel to any finite set of index points gives a completely positive map. The result may be viewed as a generalisation of the Stinespring dilation theorem from single point to multi-point index sets. This talk presents the analogue of the Haagerup-Paulsen-Wittstock decomposition theorem for $L(A,B)$-valued kernels (where now $B$ is assumed to be injective). It happens that in general complete boundedness of the kernel (ie, complete boundedness of the map resulting from restriction of the kernel to any finite index set) is not quite enough to ensure a decomposition: a certain regularity condition must also hold. This condition can be seen to be automatic if the kernel is completely positive or the index set is countable. This is joint work with Tirthankar Bhattacharyya and Chris Todd.
Abstract: In topology, there is a correspondence between generalized cohomology theories (in the sense of the Eilenberg-Steenrod axioms) on one hand and spectra on the other hand, the latter being objects in the stable homotopy category SH. In algebraic geometry and motivic homotopy theory, the situation is much more complicated in several ways. Firstly, there are many stable homotopy categories, one for each scheme, and various functors between them. Secondly, there are many sets of axioms for what a cohomology theory should be (Weil cohomology, Bloch-Ogus cohomology, oriented cohomology, ...) and a huge zoo of cohomology theories. The aim of the talk will be to give an overview of all generalized cohomology theories in algebraic geometry, using the language of motivic stable homotopy theory.
