Tensor Products of C*-Algebras and Operator Spaces

‘This is a very rich and detailed monograph on an enormously important subject. It is written in the crystal clear and elegant style that is the hallmark of its author, and it offers a lot of information to specialists and novices alike. The book will certainly become an authoritative guide.’ Dirk Werner, London Mathematical Society Student Texts‘This book is jam packed with information, and should be an invaluable guide to anyone interested in these ideas … For the complete picture and the recent advances, Pisier’s book is the place to go.’ Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society

Gilles Pisier is Emeritus Professor at Sorbonne Université and Distinguished Professor at Texas A & M University. He is the author of several books, including Introduction to Operator Space Theory (Cambridge, 2003) and Martingales in Banach Spaces (Cambridge, 2016). His multiple awards include the Salem prize in 1979 and the Ostrowski Prize in 1997, and he was the plenary speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in 1998.
