“Survey talk on von-Neumann algebras”

We survey some of the fundamental theory of von-Neumann algebras and their traces, while providing everyday examples. We will then talk a bit about abelian von-Neumann algebras, and their relationship to measure theory. Time permitting, we will talk about types decomposition for von-Neumann algebras.
