In this paper we analyze approximately finite dimensional von Neumann algebras obtained as weak closure of fixed point algebras under xerox type action of compact groups on UHF algebras. We reduce our ...

Analysis suggests that the two pioneers of quantum mechanics, Niels Bohr and John von Neumann, may have had more similar views than previously thought regarding the nature of quantum systems, and the ...

The Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences (INFORMS) today announced the award of its John Von Neumann Theory prize, a sometime harbinger of the Nobel Prize, to IBM's Nimrod ...

A mathematics professor from the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) was presented with one of the most prestigious awards in the field. Ruth Williams, Ph.D, was awarded the John von Neumann ...

Computer Science Professors Christos Papadimitriou and Mihalis Yannakakis received the John von Neumann Theory Prize for their research in computational complexity theory that explores the boundaries ...

In his new book, Ananyo Bhattacharya writes about John von Neumann, who played an essential role in the development of quantum mechanics, computing and the atom bomb. By Jennifer Szalai When you ...
