After recording their positions carefully, Galileocompared them to his drawings from previous nights. Hisconclusion that Jupiter had four moons circling it was a profoundinsight with far reaching implications.Paradigm shifting breakthroughs make for great stories, but normal science is equally important in the evolutionary development of science, engineering, and medicine. Large and small breakthroughs are often made by scientists, engineers, designers, and other professionals who have access to advanced tools. The telescopes and microscopes of previous generations are giving way to advanced user interfaces on computer tools that enable exploratory search, visualization, collaboration, and composition. Creativity, innovation, discovery, and exploration are potent concepts in academic communities, leading companies, and visionary circles. Enthusiasts envision accelerating innovation through advanced science collaboratories, design environments, open source communities, and knowledge management tools. They promote idea generation and brainstorming tools for divergent thinking followed by knowledge organization and concept mapping software for convergent processing. Testimonials from developers and users celebrate rapid genomic database search, shared astronomy laboratories, open physics preprint archives, and potent engineering design tools. Similar enthusiasm flows from users of compelling screenwriting software, flexible music composition packages, and impressive video-editing software.The promise of making more people more creative more of the time is compelling, but research on creativity support tools is just beginning. Proposed support tools are meant to serve individuals as they grapple with problems, as well as cross-disciplinary teams working in close collaboration even when separated by distance. Even more ambitious is the provision of social creativity support tools for larger communities working in rich socio-technical environments over longer time periods. Expectations are high and belief in beneficial outcomes is great, but much work remains to be done to develop a respected academic discipline with validated results.Interest in creativity is growing. Computing companies, such as Hewlett-Packard feature ‘innovation’ as their expertise, while Intel and Microsoft present appealing television commercials that promise to empower young minds with technology (‘Your potential, Our passion’). Consulting companies claim expertise and software entrepreneurs promote products with little more than testimonial support. Websites promote a range of creativity support tools, novel processes, and educational seminars.A small number of cognitive and computer scientists, information systems researchers, and industrial designers have begun to develop theories and software tools that may have widespread benefits, but theirwork could be dramatically accelerated with increased research support. These researchers often focus on serving professionals such as business decision makers, biologists exploring genomic databases, designers developing novel consumer products, or children in (and out of) classrooms. At the same time there is a history of collaborative projects between technologists and new media artists, musicians, poets, and writers that are inspiring new tools. Another lively source of ideas is from innovative educational environments for children and students. For each of these projects novel research methods could also accelerate our understanding of what software improvements are needed.The workshop report includes two major sections that discuss research methods that are appropriate for studying creativity support tools and initial guidelines for the design of creativity support tools. The audience for this report includes research managers in government, industry, and universities, as well as researchers interested in exploring these new directions. Additional sections cover:-the relationship to work of new media artists, indicating what can be learned from this community that strongly identifies with the notions of creative work products-the role of search tools and information visualization- a survey of efforts around the world related to creativity tools- a set of seven issues discussed during the workshop- a review of creativity and distributed intelligence- a set of future research directionsThe remainder of this introduction reviews current thinking about creativity and describes the workshop outcomes.Current thinking about creativityThe potential for enhancing human creativity has been a recurring theme of visionary thinkers such as Edward DeBono whose ‘lateral thinking’ ideas have had a warm reception, internationally, but a cool reception from academics. Dan Couger’s review of 22 creativity methods included the classic ones such as the methods described by Hadamard, reporting on Poincare: Preparation, incubation, illumination, verification. Recent variations, include these design steps for engineering (Adams et al., 2003, Atman et al., 2003):•Problem definition – identify need•Gather information•Generate ideas – brainstorm & list alternatives•Modeling – describe how to build•Feasibility Analysis•Evaluation – compare alternatives•Decision – select one solution•Communication – write or present to others•ImplementationDuring the past decade respected psychologists who work on creativity, such as Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi (his books include the widely cited Creativity (1996) and Finding Flow(1997)), have given a more compelling foundation. Csikszentmihalyi made two major contributions. First, his structured interviews with 91 creative people (Nobel and Pulitzer Prize winners, leading artists, corporate gurus, etc.) led to a thoughtful characterization of three key components for understanding creativity:1) Domain: e.g. mathematics or biology, "consists of a set of symbols, rulesand procedures”2) Field: "the individuals who act as gatekeepers to the domain...decide whether anew idea, performance, or product should be included”3) Individual: creativity is "when a person... has a new idea or sees a new pattern,and when this novelty is selected by the appropriate field for inclusion in therelevant domain"This characterization focuses on the individual but clearly makes creativity a social process, since an individual’s work becomes creative only when judged by others. Csikszentmihalyi’s second contribution was the development of the concept of flow which is a state of mind in which an individual is performing skilled work at an appropriate level of challenge between anxiety and boredom. Individuals in the flow state are focused on their task and moving towards their goal, often with little awareness of their surroundings. They are less aware of time, often spending hours deeply engaged in their challenge. While flow is not directly tied to creativity, many people engaged in creative tasks report being in such a flow state.Robert Sternberg’s remarkable edited collection, the Handbook of Creativity (1999), has drawn popular and academic interest. This Handbook, and numerous other books, provide useful intellectual foundations concerning motivations, strategies, and assessment for human creative work. A particularly appealing chapter by Nickerson offers 12 steps to teaching creativity:•Establish Purpose and Intention•Build Basic Skills•Encourage Acquisition of Domain-specific Knowledge•Stimulate and Reward Curiosity and Exploration•Build Motivation•Encourage Confidence and Risk Taking•Focus on Mastery and Self-Competition•Promote Supportable Beliefs•Provide Balance•Provide Opportunities for Choice and Discovery•Develop Self Management (Meta-Cognitive Skills)•Teach Techniques and Strategies for Facilitating Creative PerformanceAll of these discussions of creativity are helpful, but we propose to push forward by focusing on creativity support tools that promote, accelerate, and facilitate creativity. Just as Galileo and Jefferson employed telescope and pantograph, contemporary innovators use computer-based software tools. We see compelling opportunities for dramatic improvements of tools for work in the sciences, engineering, medicine, knowledge work, humanities, arts, and beyond.Since many descriptions of creativity focus on the individual, it is important to balance this view with an appreciation of the importance of supporting creativity in small teams and larger communities. Scientific papers in mature fields such as physics and biology often have teams consisting of dozens of authors from multiple disciplines who contribute to a research result.Creativity has been rightly recognized as a key to economic growth and social transformation in the well-document analysis by Richard Florida (2002), The Rise of the Creative Class and How It's Transforming Work, Leisure, Community and Everyday Life. His later work The Flight of the Creative Class (2005)makes the case even stronger, positing a global future shaped by communities that lure creative people by emphasizing the 3 T’s: Technology, Talent and Tolerance. If Florida’s thesis is valid, then developing technologies that support and amplify creative talents could have a massive impact. Just as physicists were lured to facilities that provided powerful synchrotrons and astronomers came to work where the best telescopes were available, future creativity support tools will entice the most innovative minds and enable them to accelerate the pace of discovery and innovation.Some commentators believe that creativity is the domain of the rare individual who arises only a few times in each century. This older notion celebrates historic figures such as Newton, Einstein, or Edison, but newer thinking proposes that every person can become creative. Eric von Hippel’s Democratizing Innovation (2005) argues that “users of products and services -- both firms and individuals -- are increasingly able to innovate for themselves.” He focuses on manufacturing and product development, but the capacity of individuals to be creative grows as the software tools spread to diverse disciplines. The first generation of business software such as spreadsheets, database management, email, and web services changed the face of industry and created a global marketplace. The impact of improved software tools is also clearly visible in filmmaking, digital photography, video editing, and music composition. The next generation of these tools will have an even stronger impact as the number of users grows dramatically from few million to a few billion people.Awareness of the benefits of focusing on creativity comes from the National Academy of Sciences report Beyond Productivity: Information Technology, Innovation and Creativity (2003), which argues that the challenge for the 21st century is to “work smarter, not harder.” This report and others identify the impact of creativity support tools on global competitiveness, successful civic infrastructures, scientific leadership, and educated citizenry.Workshop GoalsIn assembling a group of leading researchers and graduate students, we sought to create a new community of interest around creativity support tools for individuals, teams, and communities. We believed the workshop on creativity support tools could:1)Accelerate the process of disciplinary convergence: Creativity support tool research mustbridge multiple disciplines including computer science, psychology, human-computer interaction, information systems, information visualization, and software engineering. Researchers from one discipline may not appreciate the relevance of and rarely reference outside their discipline,thereby failing to take advantage of progress already made by others. Promoting awareness ofinterdisciplinary work would accelerate progress for all and improve quality.Developing an understanding of how work in one discipline is useful to another would helpadvance the research process. A natural task is to reframe computer science research on userinterface building tools and on collaboration technology as contributions to creativity support.2)Promote rigorous research methods: The commercial promoters of current creativity supporttools emphasize testimonials rather than research results. Attempts to apply controlledexperimentation have been only marginally successful, because lab-like settings and toy-liketasks are fundamentally at odds with the goals of innovative thinking. Rigorous research methods in creativity research will have to be developed because insight, discovery, and innovation are sodifficult to asses. Researchers will benefit from development of appropriate benchmark tasks and replicable evaluation methods.3)Increase the ambitiousness of research programs: Creativity support researchers haveproposed theoretical frameworks and innovative ideas that are slowly being refined throughtesting with small groups of users. With increased funding these projects could grow andresearchers could grapple with more significant design issues. Also establishing an effectivecommunity of researchers will enable more extensive collaborations and support larger scaleprojects.We believed that existing guidelines can be refined and applied to improve many software tools. Such tools are one of computer science’s most fruitful contributions, amplifying the skills of millions of users through word processors, email, web browsers, spreadsheets, and graphics programs. Current tools are merely the first generation, which now can be enhanced with richer creativity support features.Workshop OutcomesThe lively discussions before, during and after the workshop indicate that there are compelling issues for discussion. One participant made the memorable statement in his opening presentation: “I have been studying collaboration for 20 years, but have only thought of creativity for two hours.” Post workshop comments by email emphasized the fresh perspective, such as this comment from a respected senior researcher: “Absolutely the most stimulating meeting I have been to in long time.” Another participant wrote “A magnificent effort to bring together such a diverse range of people and then have them align their research so well along a single axis.” And finally one of the graduate students commented “very stimulating and energizing … I had trouble falling asleep… because my head was filled with new ideas…I left with dozens of pages of notes to follow up on in my own research.”Maintaining such enthusiasm is difficult, especially in this community of active researchers who are engaged in multiple projects. Another challenge is the interdisciplinary nature of this work, and the need for intense longitudinal case studies. Initiating new research directions is difficult, but the topic of creativity support tools could gain ground if there were acknowledgement for its importance among funding agency leaders.The authors of this report seek to promote interest in creativity support tools by accelerating the process of disciplinary convergence. We aspire to bridge computer science, HCI, psychology, and related disciplines to encourage ambitious research projects that could yield potent tools for many people to use. We came to a consensus about the outcome that would:•Accelerate research and education on creativity support tools by:o Making the case for increased funding for creativity support tool researcho Encouraging investment in substantial multi-year longitudinal case studieso Proposing ways to create greater interest among researchers, students, policymakers, and industrial developers.o Provide appropriate software infrastructure and toolkits so that creativity support tools can be more easily built.o•Promote rigorous multidimensional evaluation methods by:o Understanding the benefits and limits to controlled experimentationo Developing observation strategies for longitudinal case studieso Collecting careful field study, survey, and deep ethnographical data •Rethink user interfaces to support creativity by offering guidelines for:o Design tools for individuals and socio-technical environments for groups.o Promote low thresholds, high ceilings, wide walls, and powerful history-keepingo Support exploratory search, visualization, collaboration, and compositionReferencesAdams, R.

A third goal is to discuss some of the implications of this research for requirements analysis for creativity support tools, for the design of creativity support tools, and for the evaluation of the impact of those tools intended to support creativity. This discussion is based upon a presentation and subsequent discussion at the NSF Sponsored Creativity Support Tools (CST) Workshop held in Washington, DC in June of 2005. In providing an overview of the Psychological research on creativity we have relied heavily on various sources in The Handbook of Creativity (Sternberg, 1999), in particular the overview article by Mayer (1999). The authors in Sternberg’s collection of reviews provide a high level view of the state of the art and findings of psychological research on creativity. The work in this Handbook is highly consistent with the work of several other authors who have also surveyed major aspects of the research findings (e.g., Csikszentmihalyi, 1997; Gardner, 1989).Several of the authors in Sternberg adopt a working definition of creativity that is consistent with those offered by other authors and that involves several key components. Basically, creativity can be considered to be the development of a novel product that has some value to the individual and to a social group. However, it seems that the research conducted by psychologists on creativity does not allow us to clarify or simplify this definition any further. Different authors may provide a slightly different emphasis in their definition but most (if not all) include such notions as novelty and value. For example, Gardner (1989) emphasizes that creativity is a human capacity but includes novelty and social value in his definition. An important thinker and researcher on creativity, Csikszentmihalyi (1997), emphasizes that creativity involves process but stipulates that that process can be observed only where individuals, knowledge domains, and fields or social groups intersect.In summarizing the research findings reported in the various chapters in Sternberg(1999) it is clear that that there are several diversities (Mayer, 1999) that can be thought of as being underlying dimensions to creativity and the study of creativity. For example, one dimension is that creativity can be a property of people, a property of products, and a property of a set of cognitive processes. This diversity leads to a concern with individual differences between people. It also leads to a concern with the properties of a product that make it novel and valuable. Finally, it leads to a concern with analyzing the steps and processes of thinking which are associated with production of a creative result.A second dimension of creativity and in creativity research to be found in various chapters in Sternberg (1999) is that creativity can be thought of as a personal and a social, societal or cultural phenomenon. At an individual level creativity is said to involve the development of something novel and valuable to the individual. At the social level it involves a creation that adds something new to the culture. This dimension parallels the distinction made by Boden (1990) between P-creative and H-creative. Boden’s important conceptual clarification helps advance the discussion of creativity as it then becomes clear that an individual may be personally creative in coming up with something novel to themselves (P-creative), without necessarily being H-creative by making a contribution to the human race.A third dimension in creativity research and to creativity to be found in Sternberg (1999) is that creativity can be thought of as being common or frequent, or it can be thought of as being rare. Effectively, some aspects of the research on creativity suggest all humans are potentially capable of creativity (in Boden’s P-creative sense). Alternatively the research suggests that major creative works (in Boden’s H-creative sense) are rare.Another dimension of creativity to be found in the literature on creativity research discussed in Sternberg (1999) is that creativity may involve domain specific characteristics but that there are also domain independent or general phenomena as well. In other words, there appear to be general skills associated with being creative that apply across a variety of situations or domains of knowledge and/or practice. On the other hand it seems that different domains require extensive domain knowledge and domain specific special abilities (e.g., the physical skills required by sculpting are different than those required by composition of music).The fifth dimension of creativity research and creativity to be found in Sternberg (1999) is that creativity can be seen as being quantitative or it may be seen as being qualitative. For example, individuals may have varying amounts of creativity (e.g., as measured by psychometric tests). Furthermore different people may display different types of creativity (cf., Gardner, 1986).Yet another dimension of creativity and in creativity research to be found in Sternberg (1999) is that creativity can be individual or it can be social, in the sense of a group of people working together. For example, it is possible to study how individuals may be creative or produce a creative result. Similarly, groups of people working together may also produce a creative result that is a group result and that is not uniquely the product of a single member of the group. Thus it becomes necessary to study social entities, social products and social processes to fully understand creativity.Recognition of the fact that there are multiple dimensions to creativity and in creativity research, leads us to propose that these various aspects of creativity research and creativity should be thought of as being different dimensions of a taxonomy for creativity studies and creativity support tools. In other words, the problem of developing Creativity Support Tools is one in which one must first decide in which intersection of the n-dimensional taxonomy one wishes to study and work.For example, a Creativity Support Tool might be designed to support group work either by focusing on facilitating processes through to enhance creativity or by enabling the production of a physical artifact that is both novel and useful. This tool might not be of any use at all to an individual. While it is clear that not all possible permutations of this n-dimensional taxonomy have been explored, it does seem safe to argue that it should be possible clarify future discussions of Creativity Support Tools if investigators make use of such a Taxonomy to clearly stipulate which particular intersection of factors best characterizes the goals and nature of the Creativity Support Tool upon which they are working. This specification would also be of assistance in deciding upon which methodologies and metrics should be used in assessing the degree to which a Creativity Support Tool is thought to facilitate creative work.。

We show that every C∗−algebra is n-ideally amenable for n=2k+1.We study the n-ideal amenability of commutative Banach algebras.”Simple modules of some group algebrasJean LudwigMetz University,FranceWe determine the simple modules of the L1-algebras of Heisenberg’s and Boidol’s group and of Sl(2,R).We show that up to equivalence these modules are thefinite rank submodules of the L p principal series(and of the discrete series representations in the case of SL2(R)).The same result holds for every exponential Lie group.We derive necessary and sufficient conditions for an ambiskew polynomial ring to have a Hopf algebra structure of a certain type.This construction generalizes many known Hopf algebras,for example U(sl2),U q(sl2)and the enveloping algebra of the3-dimensional Heisenberg Lie algebra.In a torsion-free case we describe thefinite-dimensional simple modules,in particular their dimensions and prove a Clebsch-Gordan decomposition theorem for the tensor product of two simple modules.We construct a Casimir type operator and prove that anyfinite-dimensional weight module is semisimple.6The structure of Lie derivationsMartin MathieuQueen’s University,Belfast,UKThe structure of Lie derivations on a C∗-algebra has a surprisingly simple pattern.Yet,to establish this result,which was completed in joint work with Armando Villena(Granada),a substantial amount of theory had to be developed.In fact,this was one of the main motivations to investigate local multipliers of C∗-algebras in our monograph with Pere Ara(Barcelona).The approach is essentially algebraic with a few analytic tweaks;these,however, turned out to be fairly tricky at times.In our talk we plan to discuss this work in some detail with the overall theme of the workshop in mind. Dirac operators on compact quantum groupsSergey NeshveevOslo University,NorwayFor the q-deformation G q,0<q<1,of any simply connected simple compact Lie group G we construct an equivariant spectral triple which is an isospectral deformation of that defined by the Dirac operator D on G.The construction depends on the choice of a twist,which can be thought of as a2-cochain on the dual discrete quantum groupˆG.It turns out,the key properties of our quantum Dirac operators depend not on the twist but on the associator,that is,the corresponding coboundary onˆG.What allows us to say something nontrivial about the quantum Dirac operators,is that by results of Drinfeld and Kazhdan-Lusztig we can alwaysfind a twist such that the corresponding associator is determined by the monodromy of a system of partial differential equations.(Joint work with Lars Tuset.)7Existence and classification of deformationsof gerbes.Ryszard NestCopenhagen University,DenmarkIn this talk we will study deformation quantization of gerbes.After ba-sic definitions we will interpret deformations of a stack as Maurer-Cartan elements of a differential graded Lie algebra and classify deformations of a given gerbe in terms of Maurer-Cartan elements of the DGLA of Hochschild cochains twisted by the cohomology class of the gerbe.In particular we will get a classification of all deformations of a given gerbe on a symplectic manifold.Operators on Spaces of Abstract Valued Functions and Their Norms.SomeApplications.Irina PeterburgskySuffolk University,Boston,USWe proved that under certain conditions norms of linear operators over corresponding classes of scalar valued and Hilbert or Banach space valued functions coincide.Various applications of this general fact were found.In particular,extremal problems for norms of linear operators over spaces of analytic functions in several variables were ing our technique, we generalized ndau coefficient problem for a case of Hilbert or Banach codomain space.8Matrix Ordered Operator AlgebrasEkaterina Juschenko,Stanislav Popovych Chalmers University of Technology and G¨o teborg University We present a characterization of C∗-representability of an arbitrary∗-algebra in terms of algebraically admissible cones.It is analogues to Choi and Effros characterization of abstract operator systems.Then we discuss a question when for a given∗-algebra A a sequence of cones C n∈M n(A)can be realized as cones of positive operators in a faithful∗-representation of A on a Hilbert space.As an application of the above results we present a char-acterization of operator algebras which are completely boundedly isomorphic to C∗-algebras.Some connections with Kadison’s Similarity problem will be discussed.References[1]M.D.Choi,E.G.Effros,Injectivity and

Denmark,OdenseC(X)-algebras form a special class of non-simple C-algebras that extends the class of continuousfield C-algebras.A C(X)-algebra is“assembled”over a compact Hausdorffspace X fromfibre algebras(one for each point in the space X).First,we shall spend some time giving the appropriate definitions and looking at examples.Then we shall address a number of recent results that describe when given properties(eg.stability,tensorially absorbing certain C-algebras,being properly infinite)of thefibre algebra9pass to the C(X)-algebra itself.In many cases one has nice results when the space X hasfinite dimension,and“counterexamples”when the space X has infinite dimension.Non-commutative analogues of17th HilbertproblemYurii Savchuk,Max Planck Institute f¨u r Mathematik in denNaturwissenschaften,GERMANYA self-adjoint element c of a∗-algebra A is called positive ifπ(c)is positive operator for all”good”∗-representations of A.For some∗-algebras we prove the Positivstellensatz:for every positive element c there exist elements x=0,x1,...,x n such that x∗cx=x∗1x1+ (x)nx n.The Positivstellensatz foralgebra of polynomials C[t1,...,t k]is the Artin’s solution to17th.Hilbert problem.Operator ranges and C*-algebrasIvan G.TodorovQueen’s University,Belfast,UKThe collection of all ranges of operators on a Hilbert space or,more gen-erally,in a given von Neumann algebra,is a lattice with respect to intersec-tion and(non-closed)linear span.This property does not hold for arbitrary C*-algebras of operators.Moreover,given a C*-algebra A and a faithful representationπof A,whether or notπ(A)possesses this property depends onπ.Say thatπpossesses property L if the operator ranges fromπ(A)form a lattice under the above operations.The talk will be concerned with the study of the above property.In particular,property L will be related to the so called“directed set property”of a C*-algebra A,namely the property that the set of allfinite dimensional C*-subalgebras of A be directed by inclusion.A theorem on the structure of the collection of all representations of A possessing L will be discussed.The talk will be based on a joint work with M.Anoussis(Samos)and A. Katavolos(Athens)10Operator multipliersKate Juschenko/Lyudmila TurowskaChalmers University of Technology and G¨o teborg University,SwedenOperator multipliers were recently introduced by Kissin ad Shulman as a non-commutative version of Schur multipliers.They are elements of the minimal tensor product of two C∗-algebras satisfying certain boundedness conditions.In this talk we will descuss certain universal operator multipliers.We es-tablish a non-commutative version of the characterisations by Grothendieck and Peller which shows that universal operator multipliers can be obtained as certain weak limit of elements of the algebraic tensor product of the cor-responding C∗-algebras.The talk will be based on a joint work with Ivan Todorov(Belfast).11。
