We furnish a simple way of constructing an unbounded closed linear operator in a complex Banach space, whose spectrum is an arbitrary nonempty closed, in particular compact, subset of the complex plane.

We propose the notion of countable decomposability of maps on C*-algebras: a bounded linear map $\varphi : \mathscr{A}\to B(\mathcal{H})$, where $\mathscr{A}$ is a C*-algebra and $\mathcal{H}$ a Hilbert space, will be called countably…

A discrete group $\G$ is called rigidly symmetric if the projective tensor product between the convolution algebra $\ell^1(\G)$ and any $C^*$-algebra $\A$ is symmetric. We show that in each topologically graded $C^*$-algebra over a rigidly…

Let $A$ and $B$ be complex unital Banach algebras, and let $\varphi, \psi: A \to B$ be surjective mappings. If $A$ is semisimple with an essential socle and $\varphi$ and $\psi$ preserves the invertibility of linear pencils in both…

In this work, given a unital Banach algebra $\A$ and $a\in \A$ such that $a$ has a Moore-Penrose inverse $a^\dagger$, it will be characterized when $aa^\dagger-a^\dagger a$ is invertible. A particular subset of this class of objects will…

In this paper, we introduce a new notion of biprojectivity, called $WAP$-biprojectivity for $F(\mathcal{A})$, the enveloping dual Banach algebra associated to a Banach algebra $\mathcal{A}$. We find some relations between Connes…

In this paper, we introduce and study a new generalized inverse, called ag-Drazin inverses in a Banach algebra $\mathcal{A}$ with unit $1$. An element $a\in\mathcal{A}$ is ag-Drazin invertible if there exists $x\in\mathcal{A}$ such that…

Let A be a commutative Noetherian ring of dimension d and let P be a projective R=A[X_1,\ldots,X_l,Y_1,\ldots,Y_m,\frac {1}{f_1\ldots f_m}]-module of rank r\geq max {2,dim A+1, where f_i\in A[Y_i]. Then (i) \EL^1(R\op P) acts transitively…

Let p be a polynomial in one variable. It is shown that the universal C*-algebra of the relation p(x)=0, \|x\| \le C is semiprojective, residually finite-dimensional and has trivial extension group.

Let $Z$ be a projective hypersurface such that its underlying reduced variety has only isolated singularities. In case its irreducible components have constant multiplicities, for instance if $\dim Z>1$, we show that the spectrum of its…

Let A be a unital C*-algebra. Denote by P the space of selfadjoint projections of A. We study the relationship between P and the spaces of projections P_a determined by the different involutions #_a induced by positive invertible elements a…

This article gives a new proof of the fundamental lemma of the "weakly admissible implies admissible" theorem of Colmez-Fontaine that describes the semi-stable p-adic representations. To this end, we introduce the category of spectral…

The noncommutative projective scheme $\operatorname{\mathsf{Proj_{nc}}} S$ of a $(\pm 1)$-skew polynomial algebra $S$ in $n$ variables is considered to be a $(\pm 1)$-skew projective space of dimension $n-1$. In this paper, using…

In this paper we survey known results of characterizations of reflexive Banach spaces, which are based on convergence of usual and generalized arithmetic mean (or Ces\`aro sum), weakly compact subsets, affine sets in a Banach space or its…

We study whether a unital associative algebra $ A $ over a field admits a decomposition of the form $A = Z(A) + [A,A]$ where $ Z(A) $ is the center of $ A $ and $ [A,A] $ denotes the additive subgroup of $A$ generated by all additive…

We investigate the complement of the discriminant in the projective space PSym^d C^{n+1} of polynomials defining hypersurfaces of degree d in P^n. Following the ideas of Zariski we are able to give a presentation for the fundamental group…

We consider a class of C*-algebras C(X) associated with quantum spaces such as spheres, projective spaces, and lens spaces. We introduce a non-self-adjoint operator algebra A together with an explicit functor from the category of…

The main aim of the present paper is to investigate various structural properties of hyperplanes of $c$, the Banach space of the convergent sequences. In particular, we give an explicit formula for the projection constants and we prove that…

Let $A$ be an algebra and let $f$ be a nonconstant noncommutative polynomial. In the first part of the paper, we consider the relationship between $[A,A]$, the linear span of commutators in $A$, and span$f(A)$, the linear span of the image…

We show that for a Banach algebra $A$ with a bounded approximate identity, the amenability of the projective tensor product of A with A, the amenability of the projective tensor product of A with A^{op}and the amenability of A are…
