“Representations of multiplier algebras of Nevanlinna-Pick spaces”

Nevanlinna-Pick spaces are Hilbert function spaces which mirror some of the fine structure of the classical Hardy space on the unit disc. Their multiplier algebras are an important class of non self-adjoint operator algebras of functions.

The number 24 plays a central role in mathematics thanks to a series of
"coincidences" that is just beginning to be understood. One of the first
hints of this fact was Euler's bizarre "proof" that

                  1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +  ...  =  -1/12
