Announcements
We are happy to announce the conference "Harmonic and Complex Analysis: Modern and Classical" dedicated to the memory of Professor Lawrence Zalcman, to be held in Bar-Ilan University, June 18-23, 2023.
The meeting will provide a forum for discussions and exchange of new ideas, perspectives and recent developments in the broad field of Modern Analysis.
The topics to be addressed include (but not restricted to)
- Harmonic and Complex Analysis
- Operator Theory and Nonlinear Analysis
- Quasiconformal Mappings and Geometry
The following institutions have contributed to the organization of this conference: Bar-Ilan University, Braude College,
Holon Institute of Technology, Tel-Aviv University and University of South Florida.
Professor Lawrence A. Zalcman (1943-2022)
was born in Kansas City, Missouri (USA); he received his B.A. degree from Dartmouth College in 1964 and his Ph.D.
degree from MIT, under the supervision of Kenneth Hoffman, in 1968. He taught at Stanford University (1968-72) and the University of Maryland (1972-85),
before joining the Department of Mathematics at Bar-Ilan University in 1985.
His research dealt with applications of complex analysis and potential theory to approximation theory,
harmonic analysis, integral geometry and partial differential equations; in his later years, it focused on the theory of
normal families of meromorphic functions and its generalizations. Zalcman served as Editor of Journal d'Analyse Mathematique
from 1987 until 2017. He received numerous awards for mathematical exposition, including the Chauvenet Prize in 1976 and
three Paul R. Halmos - Lester R. Ford Awards (in 1975, 1981, and 2017).
