ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Javier Thayer
Javier was born in Panama, but he finds it a little difficult to explain his national roots. For those who don’t care much about passports, or similar documents, he prefers to say that he is a citizen of the world. He graduated at the University of California, Berkeley and obtained his Ph.D. at Harvard University. His areas of scientific interest are algebra of operators and the spectral theory of differential operators.
