Tensor product operators on finite dimensional Hilbert spaces are studied. The focus is on bilinear tensor product operators. A tensor product operator on a pair of Hilbert spaces is a maximally general bilinear operator into a target…
In this note we address various algorithmic problems that arise in the computation of the operator norm in unitary representations of a group on Hilbert space. We show that the operator norm in the universal unitary representation is…
Let $X$ be an operator space, let $\phi$ be a product on $X$, and let $(X,\phi)$ denote the algebra that one obtains. We give necessary and sufficient conditions on the bilinear mapping $\phi$ for the algebra $(X,\phi)$ to have a completely…
Tsirelson's problem asks whether the set of nonlocal quantum correlations with a tensor product structure for the Hilbert space coincides with the one where only commutativity between observables located at different sites is assumed. Here…
This is the second part in a series of papers presenting a theory of tensor products for module categories for a vertex operator algebra. In Part I (hep-th/9309076), the notions of $P(z)$- and $Q(z)$-tensor product of two modules for a…
This is the first part in a series of papers developing a tensor product theory for modules for a vertex operator algebra. The goal of this theory is to construct a ``vertex tensor category'' structure on the category of modules for a…
It is shown how the results in the theory of determinants and traces as well as in the theory of quasi-normed tensor products can be applied for getting new theorems on distribution of eigenvalues of nuclear operators in Banach spaces and…
We initiate the study of a new notion of duality defined with respect to the module Haagerup tensor product. This notion not only recovers the standard operator space dual for Hilbert $C^*$-modules, it also captures quantum group duality in…
We examine k-minimal and k-maximal operator spaces and operator systems, and investigate their relationships with the separability problem in quantum information theory. We show that the matrix norms that define the k-minimal operator…
We study some known approximation properties and introduce and investigate several new approximation properties, closely connected with different quasi-normed tensor products. These are the properties like the $AP_s$ or $AP_{(s,w)}$ for…
For Ore semigroups $P$ with an order unit, we prove that there is a bijection between $E_0$-semigroups over $P$ and product systems of $C^{*}$-correspondences over $P^{op}$. We exploit this bijection and show that the reduced…
In this paper, we will follow Kirchberg's categorical perspective to establish new notions of WEP and QWEP relative to a C$^*$-algebra, and develop similar properties as in the classical WEP and QWEP. Also we will show some examples of…

We study partial actions of exact discrete groups on C*-algebras. We show that the partial crossed product of a commutative C*-algebra by an exact discrete group is nuclear whenever the full and reduced partial crossed products coincide.…
This work is motivated by Radulescu's result on the comparison of C*-tensor norms on C*(F_n) x C*(F_n). For unital C*-algebras A and B, there are natural inclusions of A and B into their unital free product, their maximal tensor product and…
We extend the $\lambda$-theory of operator spaces given by Defant and Wiesner (2014), that generalizes the notion of the projective, Haagerup and Schur tensor norm for operator spaces to matrix ordered spaces and Banach $*$-algebras. Given…
The program of matrix product states on tensor powers $\mathcal A^{\otimes \mathbb Z}$ of $C^\ast$-algebras, initiated in Comm. Math. Phys. {\bf 144}, 443-490 (1992), is re-assessed in a context where $\mathcal A$ is a generic nuclear…
For a given discrete group $G$, we apply results of Kirchberg on exact and injective tensor products of $C^*$-algebras to give an explicit description of the minimal exact correspondence crossed-product functor and the maximal injective…
Whether an almost-commuting pair of operators must be close to a commuting pair is a central question in operator and matrix theory. We investigate this problem for pairs of $C^*$-subalgebras $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ of…
In the context of finite tensor products of Hilbert spaces, we prove that similarity of a tensor product of operator semigroups to a contraction semigroup is equivalent to the corresponding similarity for each factor, after an appropriate…
