Noncommutative completely positive kernels, and interpolation and transfer function realization for the noncommutative Schur-Agler class

Abstract:

I will survey some aspects of the theory of noncommutative completely positive kernels, which are the generalization of usual positive kernels to the setting of free noncommutative function theory. I will then use the language of noncommutative completely positive kernels to discuss the noncommutative generalizations of the interpolation and realization theorems for the Schur-Agler class. This is a joint work with J. Ball and G. Marx.
