Let $X$ be a perfect, compact subset of the complex plane. We consider algebras of those functions on $X$ which satisfy a generalised notion of differentiability, which we call $\mathcal{F}$-differentiability. In particular, we investigate…
We study (von Neumann) regular $^*$-subalgebras of $B(H)$, which we call R$^*$-algebras. The class of R$^*$-algebras coincides with that of "E$^*$-algebras that are pre-C$^*$-algebras" in the sense of Z. Sz\H{u}cs and B. Tak\'acs. We give…
We introduce the notion of the Fourier and Fouier-Stieltjes algebra of a topological *-semigroup and show that these are commutative Banach algebras. For a class of foundation semigroups, we show that these are preduals of von Neumann…
We study the problem of continuity of derivations over Banach algebras. More specifically, we consider a class of Banach algebras that contain a dense '$C^*$-like' subalgebra. We discuss applications to $L^p$-crossed products and…
We study the validity of the Blackadar-Kirchberg conjecture for extensions of separable, nuclear, quasidiagonal $C^*$-algebras that satisfy the UCT. More specifically, we show that the conjecture for the extension has an affirmative answer…
We consider commutative C* -algebras of Toeplitz operators in the weighted Bergman space on the unit ball in $\mathbb{C}^{\mathbf{n}}$. For the algebras of elliptic type we find a new representation, namely as the algebra of operators which…
Let ${\mathcal A}$ be a Banach algebra with the properties that $\mathrm{rad}({\mathcal A})={\rm rann}({\mathcal A})$ and the algebra ${\mathcal A}/\mathrm{rad}({\mathcal A})$ is commutative. We show that a derivation of ${\mathcal A}$ maps…
The forms in D-dimensional (half-)maximal supergravity theories are discussed for 3 $\leq$ D $\leq$ 11. Superspace methods are used to derive consistent sets of Bianchi identities for all the forms for all degrees, and to show that they are…
We discuss an "almost" version of Auslander regularity and use it to prove the Auslander regularity of various Banach algebras over non-discretely valued fields appearing naturally in $p$-adic locally analytic representation theory:…
The paper studies projective freeness and Hermiteness of algebras of complex-valued continuous functions on topological spaces, Stein algebras, and commutative unital Banach algebras. New sufficient cohomology conditions on the maximal…
In this paper, we initiate the study of higher rank Baumslag-Solitar semigroups and their related C*-algebras. We focus on two extreme, but interesting, classes - one is related to products of odometers and the other is related to…
Enveloping $C^*$-algebras for some finitely generated $*$-algebras are considered. It is shown that all of the considered algebras are identically defined by their dual spaces. The description in terms of matrix-functions is given. Keywords…
For unital $C^*$-algebras $A$ and $B$, we completely characterize the isometric ($*$-) automorphisms of their Banach space projective tensor product $A\otimes^\gamma B$. This leads to the characterization of inner and outer isometric…
In this paper we calculate the K-theory of $C^{\ast}$-algebras given by the norm-closures of spaces of bisingular pseudodifferential operators. We obtain results for the \emph{global} bisingular calculus in the flat ($\Rr^{n_1 + n_2}$)…
Let $A$ be a semisimple Banach algebra with non-trivial, and possibly infinite-dimensional socle. Addressing a problem raised by Harte and Hernandez, we first define a characteristic polynomial for elements belonging to the socle, and we…
Let $A$ and $B$ be unital Banach algebras with $A$ a subalgebra of $B$. Denote the algebra of all $n\times n$ matrices with entries from $A$ by $M_{n}(A)$. In this paper we prove some results concerning the open question: If $A$ is inverse…
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 provide a complete description of those Banach algebras that are generated by an invertible isometry of an $L^p$-space together with its inverse. Examples include the algebra $PF_p(\mathbb{Z})$ of $p$-pseudofunctions on $\mathbb{Z}$, the…
From a planar algebra, we give a functorial construction to produce numerous associated $C^*$-algebras. Our main construction is a Hilbert $C^*$-bimodule with a canonical real subspace which produces Pimsner-Toeplitz, Cuntz-Pimsner, and…
This is a survey paper concerned with strongly continuous semigroups in a Banach algebra (often itself simply the algebra of bounded linear operators on a Banach space). These are defined either on $(0,\infty)$ or on a sector in the complex…
