We study the dg-algebra $\Omega ^\bullet_{A|\mathbb{R}}$ of algebraic de Rham forms of a real soft function algebra $A$, i.e., the algebra of global sections of a soft subsheaf of $C_X$, the sheaf of continuous functions on a space $X$. We…

In this paper, we investigate homological properties of Banach algebras. We show that retractions Banach algebras preserve biprojectivity, contractibility and biflatness. We also prove that contractibility of second dual of a Banach algebra…

We answer, by counterexample, several open questions concerning algebras of operators on a Hilbert space. The answers add further weight to the thesis that, for many purposes, such algebras ought to be studied in the framework of operator…

We give a criterion ensuring that the elementary class of a modular Banach space E (that is, the class of Banach spaces, some ultrapower of which is linearly isometric to an ultrapower of E) consists of all direct sums E\oplus_m H, where H…

In the present paper we determine for each parallelizable smooth compact manifold $M$ the cohomology spaces $H^2(V_M,\bar\Omega^p_M)$ of the Lie algebra $V_M$ of smooth vector fields on $M$ with values in the module $\bar\Omega^p_M =…

We introduce two notions of amenability for a Banach algebra $\cal A$. Let $I$ be a closed two-sided ideal in $\cal A$, we say $\cal A$ is $I$-weakly amenable if the first cohomology group of $\cal A$ with coefficients in the dual space…

We prove the following result: For each closed $n$-dimensional manifold $M$ in a (finite or infinite-dimensional) Banach space $B$, and each positive real $m\leq n$ there exists a pseudomanifold $W^{n+1}\subset B$ such that $\partial…

We consider a compact complex manifold $M$, and introduce the notion of two holomorphic Banach bundles $E,F$ over $M$ being compact perturbations of one another. Given two such bundles we show that if the cohomology groups $H^q(M,E)$ are…

We investigate the quotients of Banach manifolds with respect to free actions of pseudogroups of local diffeomorphisms. These quotient spaces are called H-manifolds since the corresponding simply transitive action of the pseudogroup on its…

We prove that subhomogeneous continuous Banach bundles over compact metrizable spaces are equivalent to Hilbert bundles, while examples show that the metrizability assumption cannot be dropped completely. This complements the parallel…

Let $X$ be a Stein manifold of dimension at least 3. Given a compact codimension 2 real analytic submanifold $M$ of $X$, that is the boundary of a compact Levi-flat hypersurface $H$, we study the regularity of $H$. Suppose that the CR…

Let $M$ be a real analytic hypersurface in $\bC^N$ which is finitely nondegenerate, a notion that can be viewed as a generalization of Levi nondegenerate, at $p_0\in M$. We show that if $M'$ is another such hypersurface and $p'_0\in M'$,…

Let $A$ be a complex Banach algebra. If the spectrum of an invertible element $a\in A$ does not separate the plane, then $a$ admits a logarithm. We present two elementary proofs of this classical result which are independent of the…

In this dissertation I establish that a broad class of Banach *-algebras of infinite integral operators, defined by the property that the kernels of the elements of the algebras possess subexponential off-diagonal decay, is inverse closed…

We show, e.g., that a holomorphic Banach vector bundle over a pseudoconvex open subset of, say, Hilbert space is holomorphically trivial if it is continuously trivial. Some applications are also given.

In this paper we introduce (weakly) root graded Banach--Lie algebras and corresponding Lie groups as natural generalizations of group like $\GL_n(A)$ for a Banach algebra $A$ or groups like $C(X,K)$ of continuous maps of a compact space $X$…

Let $S$ be an inverse semigroup with the set of idempotents $E$. In this paper we define the module super-amenability of a Banach algebra which is a Banach module over another Banach algebra with compatible actions, and show that when $E$…

Let $G$ be a locally compact abelian group, and let $\omega:G \to [1,\infty)$ be a measurable weight, i.e., $\omega$ is measurable, and $\omega(s+t)\leq \omega(s)\omega(t)$ for all $s, t \in G$. Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a semisimple commutative…

In this paper we prove a strong Hahn-Banach theorem: separation of disjoint convex sets by linear forms is possible without any further conditions, if the target field $\R$ is replaced by a more general real closed extension field. From…

Let $A$ be a unital commutative Banach algebra with maximal ideal space $X.$ We determine the rational H-type of the group $GL_n (A)$ of invertible n by n matrices with coefficients in A, in terms of the rational cohomology of $X.$ We also…
