2023 GSU Workshop on Matrix Theory and Applications

Purpose

Research in matrix theory and its applications has blossomed in recent years. We

dedicate this workshop on matrix theory and applications to Dr. Frank J. Hall, in

celebration of his great contributions to matrix theory research over the last 4 decades.

Dr. Hall retired from GSU at the end of 2019, but has remained very active in research.

The workshop will feature about twelve invited 40-minute talks given by leading

researchers in matrix theory and its applications. This workshop will bring

interested graduate students into close contact with the leading researchers in matrix

 theory, introduce them to some cutting-edge research methods and results in the field,

 and provide a forum for GSU faculty and graduate students to interact with other

participants.
