From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Israel Halperin Prize is awarded every five years by the Canadian Annual Symposium on Operator Theory and Operator Algebras to a member of the Canadian mathematical community who has recently obtained a doctorate and has made contributions to operator theory or operator algebras. It honors Israel Halperin, the founder of a group of researchers in operator algebras and operator theory at the University of Toronto who strongly influenced the field across Canada. First awarded in 1980.[1]
