We prove the existence of commutative $C^*$-algebras of Toeplitz operators on every weighted Bergman space over the complex projective space $\mathbb{P}^n(\mathbb{C})$. The symbols that define our algebras are those that depend only on the…

We show that if $H \leq G$ is a closed amenable and cocompact subgroup of a unimodular locally compact group, then the reduced group C*-algebra of $G$ is not simple. Equivalently, there are unitary representations of $G$ that are weakly…

We define a new kind quantized enveloping algebra of a generalized Kac-Moody algebra ${\mathcal G}$ by adding a new generator $J$ satisfying $J^m=J$ for some integer $m$. We denote this algebra by $wU_q^{\tau}({\mathcal G})$. This algebra…

The noncommutative analog of an approximative absolute retract (AAR) is introduced, a weakly projective C*-algebra. This property sits between being residually finite dimensional and projectivity. Examples and closure properties are…

We introduce notions of compactness and weak compactness for multilinear maps from a product of normed spaces to a normed space, and prove some general results about these notions. We then consider linear maps $T:A\to B$ between Banach…

Let $M$ be a commutative homogeneous space of a compact Lie group $G$ and $A$ be a closed $G$-invariant subalgebra of the Banach algebra $C(M)$. A function algebra is called antisymmetric if it does not contain nonconstant real functions.…

We prove that the quasi-homogenous symbols on the projective space $\mathbb{P}^n(\mathbb{C})$ yield commutative algebras of Toeplitz operators on all weighted Bergman spaces, thus extending to this compact case known results for the unit…

Motivated by the beautiful work of M. A. Rieffel (1965) and of M. E. Walter (1974), we obtain characterisations of the Fourier algebra $A(G)$ of a locally compact group $G$ in terms of the class of $F$-algebras (i.e. a Banach algebra $A$…

A weakly equivariant Hopf algebra is a Hopf algebra A with an action of a finite group G up to inner automorphisms. We show that each weakly equivariant Hopf algebra can be replaced by a Morita equivalent algebra B with a strict action of G…

For a compact group $\mathbb{G}$, the functor from unital Banach algebras with contractive morphisms to metric spaces with 1-Lipschitz maps sending a Banach algebra $A$ to the space of $\mathbb{G}$-representations in $A$ preserves filtered…

If A is a weak C^*-Hopf algebra then the category of finite dimensional unitary representations of A is a monoidal C^*-category with monoidal unit being the GNS representation D_eps associated to the counit \eps. This category has…

Van Daele and Wang developed a purely algebraic notion of weak multiplier Hopf algebras, which extends the notions of Hopf algebras, multiplier Hopf algebras, and weak Hopf algebras. With an additional requirement of an existence of left or…

We show that a QWEP von Neumann algebra has the weak* positive approximation property if and only if it is seemingly injective in the following sense: there is a factorization of the identity of $M$ $$Id_M=vu: M{\buildrel…

For a semisimple quasi-triangular Hopf algebra $\left( H,R\right) $ over a field $k$ of characteristic zero, and a strongly separable quantum commutative $H$-module algebra $A$ over which the Drinfeld element of $H$ acts trivially, we show…

We show how the data of a finite dimensional weak C^*-Hopf algebra can be encoded into a pair (H,V) where H is a finite dimensional Hilbert space and V: H \o H --> H \o H is a partial isometry satisfying, among others, the pentagon…

Let $H$ be a semisimple Hopf algebras over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $0.$ We define Hopf algebraic analogues of commutators and their generalizations and show how they are related to $H',$ the Hopf algebraic…

We prove that the forgetful functors from the categories of $C^*$- and $W^*$-algebras to Banach $*$-algebras, Banach algebras or Banach spaces are all monadic, answering a question of J.Rosick\'{y}, and that the categories of unital…

We propose a definition of a "$C^*$-Eberlein" algebra, which is a weak form of a $C^*$-bialgebra with a sort of "unitary generator". Our definition is motivated to ensure that commutative examples arise exactly from semigroups of…

Partial actions of groups on C*-algebras and the closely related actions and coactions of Hopf algebras received much attention over the last decades. They arise naturally as restrictions of their global counterparts to non-invariant…

The notion of almost elementariness for a locally compact Hausdorff \'{e}tale groupoid $\mathcal{G}$ with a compact unit space was introduced by the authors as a sufficient condition ensuring the reduced groupoid $C^*$-algebra…
