The conference gathers mathematicians and engineers working on operator-theoretic aspects of functional analysis and their applications, including differential and integral equations, complex and harmonic analysis, linear systems and control theory, mathematical physics, signal processing, and numerical analysis. IWOTA meetings offer participants, including young researchers, the opportunity to present their work through invited talks and contributed presentations, to interact with colleagues from around the globe, and to broaden their expertise. A distinctive feature of IWOTA is its emphasis on interdisciplinary exchanges between mathematicians, electrical engineers, and mathematical physicists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Plenary speakers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Akram Aldroubi \u2013 Vanderbilt University, USA<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ilia Binder \u2013 University of Toronto, Canada<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Emmanuel Fricain \u2013 University of Lille, France<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pam Gorkin (Israel Gohberg Lecturer) \u2013 Bucknell University, USA<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Matthew Kennedy \u2013 University of Waterloo, Canada<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lajos Moln\u00e1r \u2013 University of Szeged, Hungary<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nilima Nigam (ICM Speaker) \u2013 Simon Fraser University, Canada<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Marek Ptak \u2013 University of Krakow, Poland<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Thomas Ransford \u2013 Laval University, Canada<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Felix Schwenninger \u2013 University of Twente, Netherlands<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>William Slofstra \u2013 University of Waterloo, Canada<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Joel Tropp (ICM Speaker) \u2013 California Institute of Technology, USA<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>This event is generously sponsored by the Universit\u00e9 Laval, Centre de recherches math\u00e9matiques (CRM), the Fields Institute, Pacific Institute for the Mathematical Sciences (PIMS), National Science Foundation (USA), International Linear Algebra Society (ILAS), and the Canadian Mathematical Society (CMS).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information and to register, please see:<br><a href=\"https:\/\/iwota-2026.fsg.ulaval.ca\/\">https:\/\/iwota-2026.fsg.ulaval.ca\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We look forward to welcoming you to Quebec City.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The organizers: Ludovick Bouthat, Javad Mashreghi, Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric Morneau-Gu\u00e9rin, Mostafa Nasri, Marcu-Antone Orsoni<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"template":"","section":[116],"keyword":[],"class_list":["post-21487","article","type-article","status-publish","hentry","section-announcement"],"toolset-meta":{"author-4-info":{"author-4-surname":{"type":"textfield","raw":""},"author-4-given-names":{"type":"textfield","raw":""},"author-4-honorific":{"type":"textfield","raw":""},"author-4-institution":{"type":"textfield","raw":""},"author-4-email":{"type":"email","raw":""},"author-4-cms-role":{"type":"textfield","raw":""}},"author-3-info":{"author-3-surname":{"type":"textfield","raw":""},"author-3-given-names":{"type":"textfield","raw":""},"author-3-honorific":{"type":"textfield","raw":""},"author-3-institution":{"type":"textfield","raw":""},"author-3-email":{"type":"email","raw":""},"author-3-cms-role":{"type":"textfield","raw":""}},"author-2-info":{"author-2-surname":{"type":"textfield","raw":""},"author-2-given-names":{"type":"textfield","raw":""},"author-2-honorific":{"type":"textfield","raw":""},"author-2-institution":{"type":"textfield","raw":""},"author-2-email":{"type":"email","raw":""},"author-2-cms-role":{"type":"textfield","raw":""}},"author-info":{"author-surname":{"type":"textfield","raw":"Conference Organizers"},"author-given-names":{"type":"textfield","raw":""},"author-honorific":{"type":"textfield","raw":""},"author-email":{"type":"email","raw":""},"author-institution":{"type":"textfield","raw":""},"author-cms-role":{"type":"textfield","raw":""}},"unknown":{"downloadable-pdf":{"type":"file","raw":"","attachment_id":null},"article-toc-weight":{"type":"numeric","raw":"30"},"author-surname":{"type":"textfield","raw":"Conference Organizers"},"author-given-names":{"type":"textfield","raw":""}}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mathmatters.cms.math.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article\/21487","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mathmatters.cms.math.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mathmatters.cms.math.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/article"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mathmatters.cms.math.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/12"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/mathmatters.cms.math.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article\/21487\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":21508,"href":"https:\/\/mathmatters.cms.math.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article\/21487\/revisions\/21508"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mathmatters.cms.math.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21487"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"section","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mathmatters.cms.math.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/section?post=21487"},{"taxonomy":"keyword","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mathmatters.cms.math.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/keyword?post=21487"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
