The purpose of this paper is two-fold: firstly, we give a characterization on the level of non-unital operator systems for when the zero map is a boundary representation. As a consequence, we show that a non-unital operator system arising…

We study C*-algebras associated with subsemigroups of groups. For a large class of such semigroups including positive cones in quasi-lattice ordered groups and left Ore semigroups, we describe the corresponding semigroup C*-algebras as…

This note presents an analysis of a class of operator algebras constructed as cross-sectional algebras of flat holomorphic matrix bundles over a finitely bordered Riemann surface. These algebras are partly inspired by the bundle shifts of…

Induced representations of $\ast$-algebras by unbounded operators in Hilbert space are investigated. Conditional expectations of a $\ast$-algebra $\cA$ onto a unital $\ast$-subalgebra $\cB$ are introduced and used to define inner products…

Extending the notion of parallelism we introduce the concept of approximate parallelism in normed spaces and then substantially restrict ourselves to the setting of Hilbert space operators endowed with the operator norm. We present several…

By the Gelfand-Naimark theorem, any C*-algebra is isometrically isomorphic to a *-algebra of bounded operators on a Hilbert space which is closed with respect to the topology induced by the operator norm. Hence, the C*-algebras furnish an…

We give a description of operator algebras of free wreath products in terms of fundamental algebras of graphs of operator algebras as well as an explicit formula for the Haar state. This allows us to deduce stability properties for certain…

B. Magajna and J. Schweizer showed in 1997 and 1999, respectively, that C*-algebras of compact operators can be characterized by the property that every norm-closed (and coinciding with its biorthogonal complement, resp.) submodule of every…

We define a C*-hull for a *-algebra, given a notion of integrability for its representations on Hilbert modules. We establish a local-global principle which, in many cases, characterises integrable representations on Hilbert modules through…

We investigate operators between spaces of holomorphic functions in several complex variables. Let $G_1, G_2 \subset \mathbb{C}^n$ be cylindrical domains. We construct a canonical map from the space of bounded linear operators…

A completely positive linear map $\varphi$ from a C*-algebra $A$ into $B(H)$ has a Stinespring representation as $\varphi(a) = X^*\pi(a)X,$ where $\pi$ is a *-representation of $A$ on a Hilbert space $K$ and $X$ is a bounded operator from…

The study of open quantum systems relies on the notion of unital completely positive semigroups on $C^*$-algebras representing physical systems. The natural generalisation would be to consider the unital completely positive semigroups on…

We study non-commutative algebraic geometry of Artin, Serre and Tate in terms of the operator algebras. Namely, we define the Serre $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal{A}_X$ of a projective variety $X$ as the norm-closure of a representation of the…

We introduce $p$-adic operator algebras, which are nonarchimedean analogues of $C^*$-algebras. We demonstrate that various classical examples of operator algebras - such as group(oid) $C^*$-algebras - have nonarchimedean counterparts. The…

We use the Fock semicrossed product to define an operator algebra associated to a module over an integral domain. We consider the $C^*$-envelope of the semicrossed product, and then consider properties of these algebras as models for…

We adapt the classical notion of building models by games to the setting of continuous model theory. As an application, we study to what extent canonical operator algebras are enforceable models. For example, we show that the hyperfinite…

We find first structural background information about the reasons that for any C*-algebra $A$ and any two Hilbert $A$-modules $M \subseteq N$ with $M^\perp=\{0\}$, every bounded $A$-linear map $N \to A$ (or $N \to N)$ vanishing on $M$ might…

The paper introduces a (universal) C*-algebra of continuous functions vanishing at infinity on the n-dimensional quantum complex space. To this end, the well-behaved Hilbert space representations of the defining relations are classified.…

An alternative, geometrical proof of a known theorem concerning the decomposition of positive maps of the matrix algebra $M_{2}(\mathbb{C})$ has been presented. The premise of the proof is the identification of positive maps with operators…

Let \alpha:G --> G be an endomorphism of a discrete amenable group such that [G:\alpha(G)]<infinity. We study the structure of the C^* algebra generated by the left convolution operators acting on the left regular representation space,…
