Some of the most central and nuanced constructions in operator algebras are tensor products. Universal facts from the purely algebraic setting become powerful properties that hold for only certain classes of operator algebras, and some of the deepest questions and most powerful techniques in the field can be captured or characterized in the language of tensor products. One of the chief players in the evolution of our understanding of the depth and power of C*-tensor products is Eberhard Kirchberg. In this seminar, we will explore the nuances of the theory and delve into Kirchberg's remarkable insights into the structure of tensor products and how the language of tensor products can create a bridge connecting seemingly distant problems in operator algebras and related areas. |
