For each 1<s<\infty, a Popa algebra A_s is constructed that embeds as a weakly dense C*-subalgebra of the interpolated free group factor L(F_s). Certain approximation properties for A_s are shown. It follows that L(F_s) has the weak…

An operator algebra $\mathcal{A}$ acting on a Hilbert space is said to have the closability property if every densely defined linear transformation commuting with $\mathcal{A}$ is closable. In this paper we study the closability property of…

We study the *-double functor between the categories of associative and involutive algebras. It is proved that an associative algebra is isomorphic to a subalgebra of a $C\sp*$-algebra if and only if its *-double is *-isomorphic to a…

Let $\mathfrak A$ be a maximal subdiagonal algebra in a $\sigma$-finite von Neumann algebra $\mathcal M$. If every right invariant subspace of $\mathfrak A$ in the non-commutative Hardy space $H^2$ is of Beurling type, then we say…

We give a solution to Pick's interpolation problem on the unit polydisc in $\mathbb{C}^n$, $n\geq 2$, by characterizing all interpolation data that admit a $\mathbb{D}$-valued interpolant, in terms of a family of positive-definite kernels…

A result of Gilbert shows that every completely bounded multiplier $f$ of the Fourier algebra $A(G)$ arises from a pair of bounded continuous maps $\alpha,\beta:G \rightarrow K$, where $K$ is a Hilbert space, and $f(s^{-1}t) =…

We consider Hilbert spaces of analytic functions in the disk with a normalized reproducing kernel and such that the backward shift $f(z) \mapsto \frac{f(z)-f(0)}{z}$ is a contraction on the space. We present a model for this operator and…

We reconsider the theory of Lagrange interpolation polynomials with multiple interpolation points and apply it to linear algebra. For instance, $A$ be a linear operator satisfying a degree $n$ polynomial equation $P(A)=0$. One can see that…

To a weighted graph can be associated a bipartite graph planar algebra P. We construct and study the symmetric enveloping inclusion of P. We show that this construction is equivariant with respect to the automorphism group of P. The…

Let $A$ be a dense Fr\'echet subalgebra of the $C^\star$-algebra of compact operators $\cal K$ on a seprable Hilbert space. Assume that $A$ is spectral invariant in $\cal K$. We show that every algebraically cyclic subrepresentation of a…

We prove that for each multiplicative subgroup $A$ of finite index in $\mathbb{Q}^+$, the set of integers $a$ with $a, a+1 \in A$ is an IP-set. This generalizes a theorem of Hildebrand concerning completely multiplicative functions taking…

Suppose that $f := (f_1,\ldots,f_d):\Omega_1\to\Omega_2$ is a proper holomorphic map between two bounded domains in $\mathbb C^d.$ In this paper, we find a non-trivial minimal joint reducing subspace for the multiplication operator (tuple)…

Every countable directed graph generates a Fock space Hilbert space and a family of partial isometries. These operators also arise from the left regular representations of free semigroupoids derived from directed graphs. We develop a…

The Schur-Agler class consists of functions over a domain satisfying an appropriate von Neumann inequality. Originally defined over the polydisk, the idea has been extended to general domains in multivariable complex Euclidean space with…

This paper is devoted to establishing the kernel theorems for $\alpha$-modulation spaces in terms of boundedness and compactness. We characterize the boundedness of a linear operator $A$ from an $\alpha$-modulation space…

By applying methods of Duhamel algebra and reproducing kernels, we prove that every linear bounded operator on the Hardy-Hilbert space H^{2}(D) has a nontrivial invariant subspace. This solves affirmatively the Invariant Subspace Problem in…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and a fixed invertible element $q^{\frac{1}{2}}$, and suppose $q+q^{-1}$ is invertible in $R$. For each planar surface $\Sigma_{0,n+1}$, we present its Kauffman bracket skein algebra over $R$ by…

The Lyapunov order appeared in the study of Nevanlinna-Pick interpolation for positive real odd functions with general (real) matrix points. For real or complex matrices $A$ and $B$ it is said that $B$ Lyapunov dominates $A$ if…
