We show that certain dense and spectral invariant subalgebras of a $C^*$-algebra have the same bilateral Bass stable rank. This is a partial answer for (a version of) an open problem raised by R.G. Swan. Then, for certain Banach algebras,…

Multidimensional persistence studies topological features of shapes by analyzing the lower level sets of vector-valued functions. The rank invariant completely determines the multidimensional analogue of persistent homology groups. We prove…

Various notions of stable ranks are studied for topological algebras. Some partial answers to R.G. Swan's problem (Have two Banach or good Fr\'echet algebras as in the density theorem in K-theory the same stable rank ?) are obtained. For…

We give a brief account of the interplay between spectral morphisms, K-theory, and stable ranks in the context of Banach algebras.

We provide a negative solution to a question of M. Rieffel who asked if the right and left topological stable ranks of a Banach algebra must always agree. Our example is found amongst a class of nest algebras. We show that for many other…

We study the general and connected stable ranks for C*-algebras. We estimate these ranks for pullbacks of C*-algebras, and for tensor products by commutative C*-algebras. Finally, we apply these results to determine these ranks for certain…

We study the general and connected stable ranks for $C^{\ast}$-algebras. We estimate these ranks for certain $C(X)$-algebras, and use that to do the same for certain group $C^{\ast}$-algebras. Furthermore, we also give estimates for the…

We prove that the Bass stable rank of the algebra of bounded holomorphic functions on an unbranched covering of a finite bordered Riemann surface is equal to one.

The paper investigates the algebraic properties of Banach algebras of complex-valued functions of bounded variation on a finite interval. It is proved that such algebras have Bass stable rank one and are projective free if they do not…

Let $\Omega$ be a circular domain, that is, an open disk with finitely many closed disjoint disks removed. Denote by $H^\infty(\Omega)$ the Banach algebra of all bounded holomorphic functions on $\Omega$, with pointwise operations and the…

We compute the Bass stable rank of the ring $\Gamma(X,\mathcal O_X)$ of global sections of the structure sheaf $\mathcal O_X$ on a finite-dimensional Stein space $(X,\mathcal O_X)$ and then apply this result to the problem of the…

We establish a general result about extending a right invertible row over a Banach algebra to an invertible matrix. This is applied to the computation of right topological stable rank of a split exact sequence. We also introduce a…

Spectral morphisms between Banach algebras are useful for comparing their K-theory and their "noncommutative dimensions" as expressed by various notions of stable ranks. In practice, one often encounters situations where the spectral…

The topological classification of gapped band structures depends on the particular definition of topological equivalence. For translation-invariant systems, stable equivalence is defined by a lack of restrictions on the numbers of occupied…

We introduce a class of recursive subhomogeneous algebras that we call diagonal subhomogeneous and we give a notion of diagonal maps between these algebras. We show that any simple limit of diagonal subhomogeneous algebras with diagonal…

The Bohl algebra $\textrm{B}$ is the ring of linear combinations of functions $t^k e^{\lambda t}$, where $k$ is any nonnegative integer, and $\lambda$ is any complex number, with pointwise operations. We show that the Bass stable rank and…

We give a formula for the stable rank of inclusions of unital Banach algebras in the sense of finite Watatani index. As an application we show that the stable rank of $\ell^1$-algebras of Disk algebras by any action of finite groups is 2.

In this note we prove that the Bass stable rank of $H^\infty_\R(\D)$ is two. This establishes the validity of a conjecture by S. Treil. We accomplish this in two different ways, one by giving a direct proof, and the other, by first showing…

In the context of commutative $C^*$-algebras we solve a problem related to a question of M. Rieffel by showing that the all-units rank and the norm-one rank coincide with the topological stable rank. We also introduce the notion of unitary…

We identify a class of smooth Banach *-algebras that are differential subalgebras of commutative C*-algebras whose openness of multiplication is completely determined by the topological stable rank of the target C*-algebra. We then show…
