For a locally compact group $G$ and a strongly self-absorbing $G$-algebra $(\mathcal{D},\delta)$, we obtain a new characterization of absorption of a strongly self-absorbing action using almost equivariant completely positive maps into the…

A metric space $\mathbf{X}$ is called densely complete if there exists a dense set $D$ in $\mathbf{X}$ such that every Cauchy sequence of points of $D $ converges in $\mathbf{X}$. One of the main aims of this work is to prove that the…

Classical algebraic structures require exact satisfaction of their defining axioms. We propose similarity algebra, a framework extending algebraic and Lie structures to settings where operations satisfy quantitative bounds up to a tolerance…

A real seminormed involutive algebra is a real associative algebra ${\mathcal A}$ endowed with an involutive antiautomorphism $*$ and a submultiplicative seminorm $p$ with $p(a^*) =p(a)$ for $a\in {\mathcal A}$. Then ${\mathop{\tt…

Given a closed ideal $I$ in a C*-algebra $A$, we show that $A$ is pure if and only if $I$ and $A/I$ are pure. More generally, we study permanence of comparison and divisibility properties when passing to extensions. As an application we…

Absolute algebras are a new type of algebraic structures, endowed with a meaningful notion of infinite sums of operations without supposing any underlying topology. Opposite to the usual definition of operadic calculus, they are defined as…

Let $X$ be any rational surface. We construct a tilting bundle $T$ on $X$. Moreover, we can choose $T$ in such way that its endomorphism algebra is quasi-hereditary. In particular, the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on $X$ is…

The universal approximation theorem is generalised to uniform convergence on the (noncompact) input space $\mathbb{R}^n$. All continuous functions that vanish at infinity can be uniformly approximated by neural networks with one hidden…

We regard a right Hilbert C*-module X over a C*-algebra A endowed with an isometric *-homomorphism \phi: A\to L_A(X) as an object X_A of the C*-category of right Hilbert A-modules. Following a construction by the first author and Roberts,…

Suppose that $A,B$ are nuclear, separable ${\rm C}^*$-algebras of stable rank one and real rank zero, $A$ is unital simple, $B$ is stable and $({\rm K}_0(B),{\rm K}_0^+(B))$ is weakly unperforated in the sense of Elliott \cite{Ell}. We show…

Quasi *-algebras possessing a sufficient family $\mathcal{M}$ of invariant positive sesquilinear forms carry several topologies related to $\mathcal{M}$ which make every *-representation continuous. This leads to define the class of locally…

Given a von Neumann algebra $M$ with a faithful normal semi-finite trace $\tau,$ let $L(M, \tau)$ be the algebra of all $\tau$-measurable operators affiliated with $M.$ We prove that if $A$ is a locally convex reflexive complete metrizable…

Let $G$ be a group, $F$ a field, and $A$ a finite-dimensional central simple algebra over $F$ on which $G$ acts by $F$-algebra automorphisms. We study the ideals and subalgebras of $A$ which are preserved by the group action. Let $V$ be the…

We consider modules E over a C*-algebra A which are equipped with a map into A_+ that has the formal properties of a norm. We completely determine the structure of these modules. In particular, we show that if A has no nonzero commutative…

Let G be a connected semisimple algebraic group over $k$, with Lie algebra $\g$. Let $\h$ be a subalgebra of $\g$. A simple finite-dimensional $\g$-module V is said to be $\h$-indecomposable if it cannot be written as a direct sum of two…

Let $X$ be a variety defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $0$, let $N\in\mathbb{N}$, let $g:X\dashrightarrow X$ be a dominant rational self-map, and let $A:\mathbb{A}^N\to \mathbb{A}^N$ be a linear transformation…

Let $S$ be an integral domain with field of fractions $F$ and let $A$ be an $F$-algebra having an $S$-stable basis. We prove the existence of an $S$-subalgebra $R$ of $A$ lying over $S$ whose localization with respect to $S$ is $A$ (we call…

We refine a construction of Choi, Farah and Ozawa to build a nonseparable amenable operator algebra $\mathcal A\subseteq\ell_\infty(M_2)$ whose nonseparable subalgebras, including $\mathcal A$, are not isomorphic to a $C^*$-algebra. This is…

Zassenhaus has proved that if U is a subnormal subalgebra of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra L and V is a finite-dimensional irreducible L-module, then all U-module composition factors of V are isomorphic. Schenkman has proved that if U is…

Let $k$ be a field containing an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. If $G$ is a finite group and $D$ is a division algebra over $k$, finite dimensional over its center, we can associate to a faithful $G$-grading on $D$ a…
