In this short note, we give a new sufficient condition for a linear map from a product of copies of a field to endomorphisms of a finite dimensional vector space over the same field to be an algebra homomorphism. We expect that this result…

We study non-selfadjoint operator algebras that can be entirely understood via their finite-dimensional representations. In contrast with the elementary matricial description of finite-dimensional $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras, in the…

We classify equivariant *-homomorphisms between C*-dynamical systems associated to actions of finite groups on C*-algebras with the Rokhlin property. In addition, the given actions are classified. An obstruction is obtained for the Cuntz…

Let $H$ be a separable Hilbert space with a fixed orthonormal basis. Let $\mathbb B^{(k)}(H)$ denote the set of operators, whose matrices have no more than $k$ non-zero entries in each line and in each column. The closure of the union (over…

We present a definition of an invariant #(M,H), defined for every finite-dimensional Hopf algebra (or Hopf superalgebra or Hopf object) H and for every closed, framed 3-manifold M. When H is a quantized universal enveloping algebra, #(M,H)…

We begin the systematic model theoretic study of $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras using the tools of continuous logic.

We initiate the study of compact group actions on C*-algebras from the perspective of model theory, and present several applications to C*-dynamics. Firstly, we prove that the continuous part of the central sequence algebra of a strongly…

We study finite-dimensional representations of hyper loop algebras over non-algebraically closed fields. The main results concern the classification of the irreducible representations, the construction of the Weyl modules, base change,…

We describe for any Riemannian manifold a certain infinitesimal neighbourhood of the diagonal. Semi-conformal maps are analyzed as those that preserve such neighbourhoods; harmonic maps are analyzed as those that preserve mirror image…

We present a new method of analysis of associative algebras. This method bears a certain resemblance to the famous analysis of commutative $C^*$-algebras in which an important role is played by multiplicative functionals over the algebra.…

In the paper we describe the C*-algebras of noncommutative spherical tight frames over some C*-algebras and then apply to study the noncommutative version of the universal classifying space.

We study multivariate generalisations of the classical Wiener--Hopf algebra, which is the C$^*$-algebra generated by the Wiener--Hopf operators, given by the convolutions restricted to convex cones. By the work of Muhly and Renault, this…

We give entropy estimates for two canonical non commutative shifts on $C^*$-algebras associated to some topological graphs $E=(E^0,E^1,s,r)$, defined using a basis of the corresponding Hilbert bimodule $H(E)$. We compare their entropies…

We study the structure and compute the stable rank of C*-algebras of finite higher-rank graphs. We completely determine the stable rank of the C*-algebra when the k-graph either contains no cycle with an entrance, or is cofinal. We also…

We show three Hahn-Banach type extension criteria for (sets of) bounded C*-linear maps of Hilbert C*-modules to the underlying C*-algebras of coefficients. One criterion establishes an alternative description of the property of (AW*-)…

Reduced HNN extensions of von Neumann algebras (as well as $C^*$-algebras) will be introduced, and their modular theory, factoriality and ultraproducts will be discussed. In several concrete settings, detailed analysis on them will be also…

The representations of Clifford algebras and their involutions and anti-involutions are fully investigated since decades. However, these representations do sometimes not comply with usual conventions within physics. A few simple examples…

In this paper, W*-algebras are presented as canonical colimits of diagrams of matrix algebras and completely positive maps. In other words, matrix algebras are dense in W*-algebras.

This is a survey on the state-of-the-art of the classification of finite-dimensional complex Hopf algebras. This general question is addressed through the consideration of different classes of such Hopf algebras. Pointed Hopf algebras…

We study endomorphisms and derivations of infinite dimensional cyclic Leibniz algebra.
