To study operator algebras with symmetries in a wide sense we introduce a notion of {\em relative convolution operators} induced by a Lie algebra. Relative convolutions recover many important classes of operators, which have been already…

Let $H$ and $K$ be locally compact groups and $\tau:H\to Aut(K)$ be a continuous homomorphism and also let $G_\tau=H\ltimes_\tau K$ be the semi-direct product of $H$ and $K$ with respect to $\tau$. We define left and also right…

We consider a new subclass of quadratic stochastic (evolutionary) operators on the simplex indexed by a finite Abelian group G with heredity law \mu. With the help of the notion of s(\mu)-invariant subgroups, where s(\mu) denotes the…

The concept of logarithmic representation of infinitesimal generators is introduced, and it is applied to clarify the algebraic structure of bounded and unbounded infinitesimal generators. In particular, by means of the logarithmic…

Let G be a discrete group and $\Gamma$ an almost normal subgroup. The operation of cosets concatanation extended by linearity gives rise to an operator system that is embeddable in a natural C* algebra. The Hecke algebra naturally embeds as…

An algebra A of operators on a Banach space X is called strictly semi-transitive if for all non-zero x,y in X there exists an operator S in A such that Sx=y or Sy=x. We show that if A is norm-closed and strictly semi-transitive, then every…

Let $p$ be a an odd prime and let $G$ be a finite $p$-group with cyclic commutator subgroup $G'$. We prove that the exponent and the abelianization of the centralizer of $G'$ in $G$ are determined by the group algebra of $G$ over any field…

Group convolutional layers with respect to some group $G$ are modeled by convolutions or cross-correlations with a filter, and they provide the fundamental building block for group convolutional neural networks. For entirely unconstrained…

We investigate some subtle and interesting phenomena in the duality theory of operator spaces and operator algebras. In particular, we give several applications of operator space theory, based on the surprising fact that certain maps are…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a complex Banach algebra. An element $a\in \mathcal{A}$ has g-Drazin inverse if there exists $b\in \mathcal{A}$ such that $$b=bab, ab=ba, a-a^2b\in \mathcal{A}^{qnil}.$$ Let $a,b\in \mathcal{A}$ have g-Drazin inverses.…

We consider the {\it concentration functions problem} for discrete quantum groups; we prove that if $\mathbb{G}$ is a discrete quantum group, and $\mu$ is an irreducible state in $l^1(\mathbb{G})$, then the convolution powers $\mu^n$,…

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 develop the theory of Banach algebras whose multiplication (regarded as a bilinear map) is open. We demonstrate that such algebras must have topological stable rank 1, however the latter condition is strictly weaker and implies only that…

A regular sampling theory in a multiply generated unitary invariant subspace of a separable Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ is proposed. This subspace is associated to a unitary representation of a countable discrete abelian group $G$ on…

For differential operators which are invariant under the action of an abelian group Bloch theory is the tool of choice to analyze spectral properties. By shedding some new non-commutative light on this we motivate the introduction of a…

An algebra is said to be quasi-directly finite when any left-invertible element in its unitization is automatically right-invertible. It is an old observation of Kaplansky that the von Neumann algebra of a discrete group has this property;…

We establish the exponential law for suitably topologies on spaces of vector-valued smooth functions on topological groups, where smoothness is defined by using differentiability along continuous one-parameter subgroups. As an application,…

For a unital non-simple $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal A$ we consider its Banach--Lie group $G$ of invertible elements. For a given closed ideal $\mathfrak k$ in $\mathcal A$, we consider the embedded Banach--Lie subgroup $K$ of $G$ of elements…

We show that if an infinite-dimensional Banach space X has a symmetric basis then there exists a bounded, linear operator R : X --> X such that the set A = {x in X : ||R^n(x)|| --> infinity} is non-empty and nowhere dense in X. Moreover, if…

We study Kontsevich's deformation quantization for the dual of a finite-dimensional real Lie algebra (or superalgebra) g. In this case the Kontsevich star-product defines a new convolution on S(g), regarded as the space of distributions…
