For 0 < s < 1, let phi_s(z)=sz+(1-s). We investigate the unital C*-algebra generated by the semigroup {C_{phi_s} : 0 < s < 1} of composition operators acting on the Hardy space of the unit disk. We determine the joint approximate point…
A commuting tuple of operators $(S_1,\dots, S_{n-1},P)$, defined on a Hilbert space $\mathcal H$, for which the closed symmetrized polydisc \[ \Gamma_n =\left\{ \left(\sum_{1\leq i\leq n} z_i,\sum_{1\leq i<j\leq n}z_iz_j,\dots,…
We prove that a bounded linear Hilbert space operator has the unit circle in its essential approximate point spectrum if and only if it admits an orbit satisfying certain orthogonality and almost-orthogonality relations. This result is…
The concept of a relatively weakly injective pair of operator systems is introduced and studied in this paper, motivated by relative weak injectivity in the C*-algebra category. E. Kirchberg \cite{Kr} proved that the C*-algebra…
A map between operator spaces is called completely coarse if the sequence of its amplifications is equi-coarse. We prove that all completely coarse maps must be $\mathbb R$-linear. On the opposite direction of this result, we introduce a…
An intriguing feature of positive $C_0$-semigroups on function spaces (or more generally on Banach lattices) is that their long-time behaviour is much easier to describe than it is for general semigroups. In particular, the convergence of…
We consider a closed set S in R^n and a linear operator \Phi on the polynomial algebra R[X_1,...,X_n] that preserves nonnegative polynomials, in the following sense: if f\geq 0 on S, then \Phi(f)\geq 0 on S as well. We show that each such…
A Hilbert space operator $S\in\B$ is $n$-quasi left $m$-invertible (resp., left $m$-invertible) by $T\in\B$, $m,n \geq 1$ some integers, if $S^{*n}p(S,T)S^n=0$ (resp., $p(S,T)=0$), where…
We introduce the nuclear dimension of a C*-algebra; this is a noncommutative version of topological covering dimension based on a modification of the earlier concept of decomposition rank. Our notion behaves well with respect to inductive…
We prove that a haploid associative algebra in a $C^*$-tensor category $\mathcal{C}$ is equivalent to a Q-system (a special $C^*$-Frobenius algebra) in $\mathcal{C}$ if and only if it is rigid. This allows us to prove the unitarity of all…
I present a proof of Kirchberg's classification theorem: two separable, nuclear, $\mathcal O_\infty$-stable $C^\ast$-algebras are stably isomorphic if and only if they are ideal-related $KK$-equivalent. In particular, this provides a more…
Let $L_0$ be a closed symmetric positive definite operator with nonzero defect indices $n_\pm(L_0)$ in a separable Hilbert space ${\mathscr H}$. It determines a family of dynamical systems $\alpha^T$, $T>0$, of the form \begin{align*} &…
Let $H_1,H_2$ be complex Hilbert spaces and $T$ be a densely defined closed linear operator (not necessarily bounded). It is proved that for each $\epsilon>0$, there exists a bounded operator $S$ with $\|S\|\leq \epsilon$ such that $T+S$ is…
In this paper, we apply quantitative operator K-theory to develop an algorithm for computing K-theory for the class of filtered C *-algebras with asymptotic finite nuclear decomposition. As a consequence, we prove the K{\"u}nneth formula…
A well-known theorem due to R. E. Curto and N. Salinas gives a necessary and sufficient condition for the unitary equivalence of commuting tuples of bounded linear operators acting on reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. Inspired by this…
Let $(X,\mathcal{B},\mu)$ be a measure space and $A$ be a norm closed subalgebra of $\mathcal{B}(L^p(X,\mu))$, where $p\in [1,\infty)$. Let $(G,A,\alpha)$ be an $L^p$-operator algebra dynamical system, where $G$ is a countable discrete…
Vertex operator algebras are mathematically rigorous objects corresponding to chiral algebras in conformal field theory. Operads are mathematical devices to describe operations, that is, $n$-ary operations for all $n$ greater than or equal…
Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a complex, separable Hilbert space and $\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})$ denote the algebra of all bounded linear operators acting on $\mathcal{H}$. Given a unitarily-invariant norm $\| \cdot \|_u$ on…
In the setting of product systems over group-embeddable monoids, we consider nuclearity of the associated Toeplitz C*-algebra in relation to nuclearity of the coefficient algebra. Our work goes beyond the known cases of single…
In this article I study a number of topological and algebraic dimension type properties of simple C*-algebras and their interplay. In particular, a simple C*-algebra is defined to be (tracially) (m,\bar{m})-pure, if it has (strong tracial)…
