It is proved that classifiable simple separable nuclear purely infinite C*-algebras having finitely generated K-theory and torsion-free K_1 are semiprojective. This is accomplished by exhibiting these algebras as C*-algebras of infinite…

We study the link between stably finiteness and stably projectionless-ness for $C^*$-algebras of solvable Lie groups. We show that these two properties are equivalent if the dimension of the group is not divisible by $4$; otherwise, they…

We examine maps between noncommutative projective spaces. A surjection of graded rings A-->A/J induces a closed immersion Proj(A/J)-->Proj(A). A homomorphism f:A-->B between graded rings induces an affine map U --> Proj(A) from a non-empty…

The Radon-Nikodym formalism is used to study the structure of the set of positive maps from $\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})$ into itself, where $\mathcal{H}$ is a finite dimensional Hilbert space. In particular, this formalism was employed to…

We construct a class of positive linear maps on matrix algebras. We find conditions when these maps are atomic, decomposable and completely positive. We obtain a large class of atomic positive linear maps. As applications in quantum…

We analyze semigroups of decomposable maps on C*-algebras in context of the algebraic structure of associated infinitesimal generators. Case of von Neumann algebras, including $B(\mathcal{H})$ for $\mathcal{H}$ a Hilbert space, is also…

We call an operator algebra A {\em reversible} if A with reversed multiplication is also an abstract operator algebra (in the modern operator space sense). This class of operator algebras is intimately related to the {\em symmetric operator…

We study the noncommutative topology of the $C^*$-algebras $C(\mathbb{C}P_q^{n})$ of the quantum projective spaces within the framework of Kasparov's bivariant K-theory. In particular, we construct an explicit KK-equivalence with the…

A complex hyperplane arrangement $\mathcal{A}$ is said to be decomposable if there are no elements in the degree 3 part of its holonomy Lie algebra besides those coming from the rank 2 flats. When this purely combinatorial condition is…

It is shown that for a map $f \colon X \to Y$ of compact spaces the unital $\ast$-homomorphism $C(f) \colon C(Y) \to C(X)$ is projective in the category $\operatorname{Mor}({\mathcal C}^{1})$ precisely when $X$ is a dendrite and $f$ is…

We use a new idea that emerged in the examination of exposed positive maps between matrix algebras to investigate in more detail the difference between positive maps on $M_2(C)$ and $M_3(C)$. Our main tool stems from classical Grothendieck…

The possibilities for new or unusual kinds of topological, locally linear periodic maps of non-prime order on closed, simply connected 4-manifolds with positive definite intersection pairings are explored. On the one hand, certain…

We prove lifting theorems for completely positive maps going out of exact $C^\ast$-algebras, where we remain in control of which ideals are mapped into which. A consequence is, that if $\mathsf X$ is a second countable topological space,…

We prove that a set of finite perimeter is indecomposable if and only if it is, up to a choice of suitable representative, connected in the 1-fine topology. This gives a topological characterization of indecomposability which is new even in…

We solve a class of lifting problems involving approximate polynomial relations (soft polynomial relations). Various associated C*-algebras are therefore projective. The technical lemma we need is a new manifestation of Akemann and…

It is shown that projectivized irreducible components of nilpotent cones of complex symmetric spaces are projective self-dual algebraic varieties. Other properties equivalent to their projective self-duality are found.

We identify and characterize unital completely positive (UCP) maps on finite dimensional $C^*$-algebras for which the Choi-Effros product extended to the space generated by peripheral eigenvectors matches with the original product. We…

For finite p-groups P of class 2 and exponent p the following are invariants of fully refined central decompositions of P: the number of members in the decomposition, the multiset of orders of the members, and the multiset of orders of…

It is a well-known result due to E. St{\o}rmer that every positive qubit map is decomposable into a sum of a completely positive map and a completely copositive map. Here, we generalize this result to tensor squares of qubit maps.…

We classify noninvertible, holomorphic selfmaps of the projective plane that preserve an algebraic web. In doing so, we obtain interesting examples of critically finite maps.
