Recent Advances in Operator-Related Function Theory (Contemporary Mathematics): Conference on Recent Advances in Operator-related Function Theory, Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland, August 4-6, 2004

The articles in this book are based on talks at a conference devoted to interrelations between function theory and the theory of operators. The main theme of the book is the role of Alexandrov-Clark measures. Two of the articles provide the introduction to the theory of Alexandrov-Clark measures and to its applications in the spectral theory of linear operators. The remaining articles deal with recent results in specific directions related to the theme of the book.
