A holomorphic function $f$ on the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$ belongs to the class $\mathcal{U}_A(\mathbb{D})$ of Abel universal functions if the family $\{f_r: 0\leq r<1\}$ of its dilates $f_r(z):=f(rz)$ is dense in the space of continuous…

A uniform algebra $A$ on its Shilov boundary $X$ is {\em maximal} if $A$ is not $C(X)$ and there is no uniform algebra properly contained between $A$ and $C(X)$. It is {\em essentially pervasive} if $A$ is dense in $C(F)$ whenever $F$ is a…

We show that each pseudoconvex domain $\Omega\subset {\mathbb C}^n$ admits a holomorphic map $F$ to ${\mathbb C}^m$ with $|F|\le C_1 e^{C_2 \hat{\delta}^{-6}}$, where $\hat{\delta}$ is the minimum of the boundary distance and…

Let $A \cong k\langle X \rangle / I$ be an associative algebra. A finite word over alphabet $X$ is $I${\it-reducible} if its image in $A$ is a $k$-linear combination of length-lexicographically lesser words. An {\it obstruction} in a…

For any open, connected and bounded set $\Omega \subseteq \mathbb C^m$, let $\mathcal A$ be a natural function algebra consisting of functions holomorphic on $\Omega$. Let $\mathcal M$ be a Hilbert module over the algebra $\mathcal A$ and…

We identify the complex plane C with the open unit disc D={z:|z|<1} by the homeomorphism z --> z/(1+|z|). This leads to a compactification $\bar{C}$ of C, homeomorphic to the closed unit disc. The Euclidean metric on the closed unit disc…

The main result of the paper is an extension of the Dirichlet problem from (closures of) bounded open domains U to arbitrary compact subsets X of the complex plane, i.e. the closure of the corresponding space of functions which are harmonic…

We show that for every connected analytic subvariety $V$ there is a pseudoconvex set $\Omega$ such that every bounded matrix-valued holomorphic function on $V$ extends isometrically to $\Omega$. We prove that if $V$ is two analytic disks…

A simple Steinberg algebra associated to an ample Hausdorff groupoid $G$ is algebraically purely infinite if and only if the characteristic functions of compact open subsets of the unit space are infinite idempotents. If a simple Steinberg…

It is shown that, given any finite dimensional, split basic algebra $\Lambda = K\Gamma/I$ (where $\Gamma$ is a quiver and $I$ an admissible ideal in the path algebra $K \Gamma$), there is a finite list of affine algebraic varieties, the…

The set \[ \Gamma {\stackrel{\rm def}{=}} \{(z+w,zw):|z|\leq 1,|w|\leq 1\} \subset {\mathbb{C}}^2 \] has intriguing complex-geometric properties; it has a 3-parameter group of automorphisms, its distinguished boundary is a ruled surface…

We introduce a class of algebras over a field $\mathbb{F}$ related to directed graphs in which all edges are labeled by nonzero elements of the field $\mathbb{F}$. If all labels are different from $1$, these algebras are axial algebras. We…

We consider the following conjecture (from Huang, et al): Let $\Delta^+$ denote the upper half disc in $\mathbb{C}$ and let $\gamma = ( - 1, 1)$ (viewed as an interval in the real axis in $\mathbb{C}$). Assume that $F$ is a holomorphic…

We give a survey of the known connections between regularity conditions and amenability conditions in the setting of uniform algebras. For a uniform algebra $A$ we consider the set, $A_{lc}$, of functions in $A$ which are locally constant…

The uniform norm on a uniform normed Q-algebra is the only uniform Q-algebra norm on it. The uniform norm on a regular uniform normed Q-algebra with unit is the only uniform norm on it. Let A be a uniform topological algebra whose spectrum…

We present the construction of an associative, commutative algebra $\hat {\mathcal G}$ of generalized functions on a manifold $X$ satisfying the following optimal set of permanence properties: (i)The space of distributions on $X$ is…

We study the approximately finite-dimensional (AF) $C^*$-algebras that appear as inductive limits of sequences of finite-dimensional $C^*$-algebras and left-invertible embeddings. We show that there is such a separable AF-algebra $\mathcal…

We define and study large and stably large subalgebras of simple unital C*-algebras. The basic example is the orbit breaking subalgebra of a crossed product by Z, as follows. Let X be an infinite compact metric space, let h be a minimal…

We show that a class of algebras is closed under the taking of homomorphic images and direct products if and only if the class consists of all algebras that satisfy a set of (generally simultaneous) equations. For classes of regular…

If $\Omega$ is a simply connected domain in $\overline{{\mathbb C}}$ then, according to the Ahlfors-Gehring theorem, $\Omega$ is a quasidisk if and only if there exists a sufficient condition for the univalence of holomorphic functions in…
