The aim of this conference is to bring together experts and young researchers from various fields and communities in mathematics related to operator semigroups and linear evolution equations. The conference will also celebrate Charles Batty’s ongoing outstanding contributions to the theory of operator semigroups, C*-algebras and their relations to other areas of analysis. We expect there to be around 60 participants in the conference, about half of them early career researchers (Ph.D. students and postdocs).
