Tiberiu Constantinescu Memorial Volume

The volume is a careful selection of papers in operator theory, structured matrices, and dilations, dedicated to Tiberiu Constantinescu, a prominent mathematician in the field.
Of particular interest is the survey of J.W. Helton and M. Putinar on positive polynomials, spectral theorem, and optimization: a pioneering essay that brings together under the unifying concept of positivity ideas from different areas of mathematics. The other research papers deal with recent advances in single or multivariable operator theory, interpolation and moment problems, perturbation theory, composition operators, matrix completion problems, and system theory.

The volume is distributed by the American Mathematical Society. Further details about the Theta Series in Advanced Mathematics can be found at the AMS Bookstore.
