On some current trends in the factorization theory

Ilya Spitkovsky (The College of William and Mary) 

We will give an overview of Wiener-Hopf factorization theory, describe some (old but still open) problems, and will also mention current trends. In particular, we will introduce the notion of almost periodic factorization, explain its roots and demonstrate the challenges it presents.
