Let A be a C*-algebra and d from A into A** be a continuous linear map. We assume that d acts like derivation or anti-derivation at orthogonal elements for several types of orthogonality conditions such as ab=0, ab*=0, ab=ba=0 and…

Let $\mathscr{R}$ be a finite von Neumann algebra with a faithful tracial state $\tau $ and let $\Delta$ denote the associated Fuglede-Kadison determinant. In this paper, we characterize all unital bijective maps $\phi$ on the set of…

In this paper we are interested in examples of locally compact quantum groups $(M,\Delta)$ such that both von Neumann algebras, $M$ and the dual $\hat{M}$, are factors. There is a lot of known examples such that $(M,\hat{M})$ are…

An example is given of a simple, unital C*-algebra which contains an infinite and a non-zero finite projection. This C*-algebra is also an example of an infinite simple C*-algebra which is not purely infinite. A corner of this C*-algebra is…

A unital ring is called clean (resp. strongly clean) if every element can be written as the sum of an invertible element and an idempotent (resp. an invertible element and an idempotent that commutes). T.Y. Lam proposed a question: which…

We provide a universal construction of the category of finite-dimensional C*-algebras and completely positive trace-nonincreasing maps from the rig category of finite-dimensional Hilbert spaces and unitaries. This construction, which can be…

We apply Hilbert module methods to show that normal completely positive maps admit weak tensor dilations. Appealing to a duality between weak tensor dilations and extensions of CP-maps, we get an existence proof for certain extensions. We…

In this work, we study a sub-collection of unital completely positive maps from a unital $C^\ast$-algebra $\mathcal{A}$ to $\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})$, the algebra of bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ in the setting…

A novel family of integrable third order maps is presented. Each map possesses, by construction, a pair of rational invariants and a commuting map from the same class. The 3-dimensional invariant curve is parametrized, in general, by an…

We study the von Neumann algebra generated by q--deformed Gaussian elements l_i+l_i^* where operators l_i fulfill the q--deformed canonical commutation relations l_i l_j^*-q l_j^* l_i=delta_{ij} for -1<q<1. We show that if the number of…

Motivated by Ball, Li, Timotin and Trent's Schur-Agler class version of commutant lifting theorem, we introduce a class, denoted by $\mathcal{P}_n(\mathcal{H})$, of $n$-tuples of commuting contractions on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. We…

We construct complete nonorientable minimal surfaces whose Gauss map omits two points of the projective plane. This result proves that Fujimoto's theorem is sharp in nonorientable case.

In this paper we revisit an integrable map of the plane which we obtained recently as a two-parameter family of deformed mutations in the cluster algebra of type D$_4$. The rational first integral for this map defines an invariant foliation…

It is proved that each of compact linear groups of one special type admits a polynomial factorization map onto a real vector space. More exactly, the group is supposed to be non-commutative one-dimensional and to have two connected…

In an attempt to propose more general conditions for decoherence to occur, we study spectral and ergodic properties of unital, completely positive maps on not necessarily unital $C^*$-algebras, with a particular focus on gapped maps for…

We introduce the concept of a 1-coaligned $k$-graph and prove that the shift maps of a $k$-graph pairwise *-commute if and only if the $k$-graph is 1-coaligned. We then prove that for 2-graphs $\Lambda$ generated from basic data *-commuting…

Let $d > 1$, and let $(X,\alpha)$ and $(Y,\beta)$ be two zero-entropy ${\mathbb{Z}}^d$-actions on compact abelian groups by $d$ commuting automorphisms. We show that if all lower rank subactions of $\alpha$ and $\beta$ have completely…

A problem of completing a linear map on C*-algebras to a completely positive map is analyzed. It is shown that whenever such a completion is feasible there exists a unique minimal completion. This theorem is used to show that under some…

In this paper, we show that a $D$-type map $\Phi_D:M_n\rightarrow M_n$ with $D=(n-2)I_n+P_{\pi_1}+P_{\pi_2}$ induced by a pair $\{\pi_1,\pi_2\}$ of permutations of $(1,2,..., n)$ is positive if $\{\pi_1,\pi_2\}$ has property (C). The…

In this article we prove that quasi-multiplicative (with respect to the usual length function) mappings on the permutation group $\SSn$ (or, more generally, on arbitrary amenable Coxeter groups), determined by self-adjoint contractions…
