<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>This elegantly edited landmark edition of Gert Kjærgård Pedersen's <i>C*-Algebras and their Automorphism Groups</i> (1979) carefully and sensitively extends the classic work to reflect the wealth of relevant novel results revealed over the past forty years. Revered from publication for its writing clarity and extremely elegant presentation of a vast space within operator algebras, Pedersen's monograph is notable for reviewing partially ordered vector spaces and group automorphisms in unusual detail, and by strict intention releasing the C*-algebras from the yoke of representations as Hilbert space operators. Under the editorship of Søren Eilers and Dorte Olesen, the second edition modernizes Pedersen's work for a new generation of C*-algebraists, with voluminous new commentary, all-new indexes, annotation and terminology annexes, and a surfeit of new discussion of applications and of the author's later work. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Søren Eilers obtained his PhD from the University of Copenhagen in 1995 under the supervision of Gert K. Pedersen and coauthored several papers with him. He is an editor for Mathematica Scandinavica and Journal of Mathematical Analysis and Applications and a specialist in the classification of C*-algebras and dynamical systems.
