      abstract = {This book discusses recent developments in semigroup  theory and its applications in areas such as operator  algebras, operator approximations and category theory. All  contributing authors are eminent researchers in their  respective fields, from across the world. Their papers,  presented at the 2014 International Conference on  Semigroups, Algebras and Operator Theory in Cochin, India,  focus on recent developments in semigroup theory and  operator algebras. They highlight current research  activities on the structure theory of semigroups as well as  the role of semigroup theoretic approaches to other areas  such as rings and algebras. The deliberations and  discussions at the conference point to future research  directions in these areas. This book presents 16  unpublished, high-quality and peer-reviewed research papers  on areas such as structure theory of semigroups,  decidability vs. undecidability of word problems, regular  von Neumann algebras, operator theory and operator  approximations. Interested researchers will find several  avenues for exploring the connections between semigroup  theory and the theory of operator algebras.},
