We investigate the class of unital C*-algebras that admit a unital embedding into every unital C*-algebra of real rank zero, that has no finite-dimensional quotients. We refer to a C*-algebra in this class as an initial object. We show that…

A semiregular operator on a Hilbert C^*-module, or equivalently, on the C^*-algebra of `compact' operators on it, is a closable densely defined operator whose adjoint is also densely defined. It is shown that for operators on extensions of…

Reider's Theorem on the very ampleness of adjoint linear series on a complex projective algebraic surface is extended in two new directions. First, Reider-type inequalities are shown to imply nefness of linear series of the form dH - E on…

Let $\gH$ be a Hilbert space and let $A$ be a simple symmetric operator in $\gH$ with equal deficiency indices $d:=n_\pm(A)<\infty$. We show that if, for all $\l$ in an open interval $I\subset\bR$, the dimension of defect subspaces…

We extend the results of our previous paper "C*-algebras and numerical linear algebra" to cover the case of "unilateral" sections. This situation bears a close resemblance to the case of Toeplitz operators on Hardy spaces, in spite of the…

Let $H$ be an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space, $B(H)$ the $C^*$-algebra of all bounded linear operators on $H,$ $U(B(H))$ the unitary group of $B(H)$ and ${\cal K}\subset B(H)$ the ideal of compact operators. Let $G$ be a…

We study singular Schr\"odinger operators on a finite interval as selfadjoint extensions of a symmetric operator. We give sufficient conditions for the symmetric operator to be in the $n$-entire class, which was defined in our previous…

Kadison characterized the diagonals of projections and observed the presence of an integer. Arveson later recognized this integer as a Fredholm index obstruction applicable to any normal operator with finite spectrum coincident with its…

A unitary representation of a, possibly infinite dimensional, Lie group G is called semi-bounded if the corresponding operators id\pi(x) from the derived representations are uniformly bounded from above on some non-empty open subset of the…

We present a multidimensional generalization of Zeckendorf's Theorem (any positive integer can be written uniquely as a sum of non-adjacent Fibonacci numbers) to a large family of linear recurrences. This extends work of Anderson and…

Let $L_0$ be a densely defined minimal linear operator in a Hilbert space $H$. We prove theorem that if there exists at least one correct extension $L_S$ of $L_0$ with the property $D(L_S)=D(L_S^*)$, then we can describe all correct…

This paper considers different facets of the interplay between reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces (RKHS) and stable analysis/synthesis processes: First, we analyze the structure of the reproducing kernel of a RKHS using frames and…

Let $d_1,...,d_r$ be positive integers and let $I = (F_1,...,F_r)$ be an ideal generated by general forms of degrees $d_1,...,d_r$, respectively, in a polynomial ring $R$ with $n$ variables. When all the degrees are the same we give a…

We consider sets in $\mathbb R^N$ which minimise, for fixed volume, the sum of the perimeter and a non-local term given by the double integral of a kernel $g:\mathbb R^N\setminus\{0\}\to \mathbb R^+$. We establish some general existence and…

The present article is a review of recent developments concerning the notion of F{\o}lner sequences both in operator theory and operator algebras. We also give a new direct proof that any essentially normal operator has an increasing…

By using C*-correspondences and Cuntz-Pimsner algebras, we associate to every subshift (also called a shift space) $X$ a C*-algebra $O_X$, which is a generalization of the Cuntz-Krieger algebras. We show that $O_X$ is the universal…

In this note we analyze the C*-algebra associated with a branched covering both as a groupoid C*-algebra and as a Cuntz-Pimsner algebra. We determine conditions when the algebra is simple and purely infinite. We indicate how to compute the…

Spielberg's construction of C*-algebras from left cancellative small categories is a common generalization for most C*-algebras one would consider to come from ``combinatorial data,'' including graph and $k$-graph C*-algebras, Li's…

We apply Arveson's non-commutative boundary theory to dilate every Toeplitz-Cuntz-Krieger family of a directed graph $G$ to a full Cuntz-Krieger family for $G$. We do this by describing all representations of the Toeplitz algebra…

There is an interesting potential theory associated to each degenerate elliptic, fully nonlinear equation $f(D^2u) = 0$. These include all the potential theories attached to calibrated geometries. This paper begins the study of tangents to…
