We consider the Dirichlet problem for solutions to general second-order homogeneous elliptic equations with constant complex coefficients. We prove that any Jordan domain with $C^{1,\alpha}$-smooth boundary, $0<\alpha<1$, is not regular…

Let $\mathcal {A}$ be a unital $\ast$-algebra. For $A, B\in\mathcal{A}$, define by $[A, B]_{*}=AB-BA^{\ast}$ and $A\bullet B=AB+BA^{\ast}$ the new products of $A$ and $B$. In this paper, under some mild conditions on $\mathcal {A}$, it is…

Let $n\in \Bbb N-\{1\},$ and let $A$ be a Banach algebra. An additive map $D: A\to A$ is called n-Jordan derivation if $$D(a^n)=D(a)a^{n-1}+aD(a)a^{n-2}+...+a^{n-2}D(a)a+a^{n-1}D(a),$$ for all $a \in {A}$. Using fixed point methods, we…

Three natural definitions for amenability of general Hopf C^*-algebras (all of them being generalizations of the case of locally compact groups) were given and the relations between them were studied. Moreover, amenability in the situation…

We prove the following result. If $f$ is a harmonic quasiconformal mapping between two Jordan domains $D$ and $\Omega$ having $\mathscr{C}^1$ boundaries, then the function $f$ is globally H\"older continuous for every $\alpha<1$ but it is…

By using a variation of a theorem on $n$-Jordan homomorphisms due to Herstein, we deduce the following G. An's result: Let $ A $ and $ B $ be two rings where $ A $ has a unit and $ char(B)> n. $ If every Jordan homomorphism from $ A $ into…

This paper is an elaborated version of the material presented by the author in a three hour minicourse at "V International Course of Mathematical Analysis in Andalusia," Almeria, Spain, September 12-16, 2011. Part I is devoted to an…

Let $A$ be a finite-dimensional algebra over a field $F$ with char$(F)\ne 2$. We show that a linear map $D:A\to A$ satisfying $xD(x)x\in [A,A]$ for every $x\in A$ is the sum of an inner derivation and a linear map whose image lies in the…

Gelfand-Naimark duality (Commutative $C^*$-algebras $\equiv$ Locally compact Hausdorff spaces) is extended to $C^*$-algebras $\equiv$ Quotient maps on locally compact Hausdorff spaces. Using this duality, we give for an \emph{arbitrary}…

An n-homomorphism between algebras is a linear map $\phi : A \to B$ such that $\phi(a_1 ... a_n) = \phi(a_1)... \phi(a_n)$ for all elements $a_1, >..., a_n \in A.$ Every homomorphism is an n-homomorphism, for all n >= 2, but the converse is…

We are concerned with the question when Hom-Lie structures on a Lie algebra are closed with respect to the Jordan product. Somewhat unexpectedly, this leads us to certain questions connected with the Yang-Baxter equation, and with…

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a pocategory, $FI(\mathcal{C})$ the finitary incidence ring of $\mathcal{C}$ and $\varphi$ a Jordan isomorphism of $FI(\mathcal{C})$ onto an associative ring $A$. We study the problem of decomposition of $\varphi$ into…

We obtain two characterizations of the bi-inner Hopf *-automorphisms of a finite-dimensional Hopf C*-algebra, by means of an analysis of the structure of convolution products in this class of Hopf C*-algebra.

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a unital $\mathbf{C}^*$-algebra with unit $e$. We develop several inequalities for a positive linear functional $f$ on $\mathcal{A}$ and obtain several bounds for the numerical radius $v(a)$ of an element $a\in…

An idempotent in a Jordan algebra induces a Peirce decomposition of the algebra into subspaces whose pairwise multiplication satisfies certain fusion rules $\Phi(\frac{1}{2})$. On the other hand, $3$-transposition groups $(G,D)$ can be…

In this paper, we study the variety $Jor_{3}$ of three-dimensional Jordan algebras over the field of real numbers. We establish the list of $26$ non-isomorphic Jordan algebras and describe the irreducible components of $Jor_{3}$ proving…

We study the relationship between cyclic homology of Jordan superalgebras and second cohomologies of their Tits-Kantor-Koecher Lie superalgebras. In particular, we focus on Jordan superalgebras that are Kantor doubles of bracket algebras.…

We show that a Jordan-H\"older theorem holds for appropriately defined composition series of finite dimensional Hopf algebras. This answers an open question of N. Andruskiewitsch. In the course of our proof we establish analogues of the…

We give examples of minimal diffeomorphisms of compact connected manifolds which are not topologically orbit equivalent, but whose transformation group C*-algebras are isomorphic. The examples show that the following properties of a minimal…

Homotopy is an important feature of associative and Jordan algebraic structures: such structures always come in families whose members need not be isomorphic among other, but still share many important properties. One may regard homotopy as…
