The theory of one-sided $M$-ideals and multipliers of operator spaces is simultaneously a generalization of classical $M$-ideals, ideals in operator algebras, and aspects of the theory of Hilbert $C^*$-modules and their maps. Here we give a…
We give some new characterizations of unitaries, isometries, unital operator spaces, unital function spaces, operator systems, C*-algebras, and related objects. These characterizations only employ the vector space and operator space…
In this article, we define operator algebras internal to a rigid C*-tensor category $\mathcal{C}$. A C*/W*-algebra object in $\mathcal{C}$ is an algebra object $\mathbf{A}$ in $\operatorname{ind}$-$\mathcal{C}$ whose category of free…
In a recent paper of the first author and Kashyap, a new class of modules over dual operator algebras is introduced. These generalize the W*-modules (that is, Hilbert C*-modules over a von Neumann algebra which satisfy an analogue of the…
An operator *-algebra is a non-selfadjoint operator algebra with completely isometric involution. We show that any operator *-algebra admits a faithful representation on a Hilbert space in such a way that the involution coincides with the…
In this article we give a short and informal overview of some aspects of the theory of C*- and von Neumann algebras. We also mention some classical results and applications of these families of operator algebras.
The aim of this paper is to give new characterizations of some fundamental issues about idempotents. In the general setting of adjointable operators on Hilbert $C^*$-modules, a new term of quasi-projection pair is introduced. For each…
In the setting of modern mathematical logic and model theory, classification theory has been one of the landmark achievements of the field. Likewise, the classification of UHF-algebras and AF-algebras were substantial contributions to the…
In [H5] (q-alg/9512024) and [H7] (q-alg/9704008), the author introduced the notion of intertwining operator algebra, a nonmeromorphic generalization of the notion of vertex operator algebra involving monodromies. The problem of constructing…
We consider projectivity and injectivity of Hilbert C*-modules in the categories of Hilbert C*-(bi-)modules over a fixed C*-algebra of coefficients (and another fixed C*-algebra represented as bounded module operators) and bounded…
Frames on Hilbert C*-modules have been defined for unital C*-algebras by Frank and Larson and operator valued frames on a Hilbert space have been studied in arXiv.0707.3272v1.[math.FA]. Goal of the present paper is to introduce operator…
Given two C*-algebras A and B, abstract A-B bimodules that can be isometrically represented as operator bimodules are characterised in terms of their norm. Various properties of such bimodules are given. Their theory is very similar to…
Following the article of C. M. Ringel we introduce preprojective algebras of a Dynkin quiver $Q$ starting from three definitions which, despite concerning completely different algebraic structures, turn out to be equivalent. Our main result…
In this paper we give characterizations of essential left ideals of a C*-algebra $A$ in terms of their properties as operator $A$-modules. Conversely, we seek C*-algebraic characterizations of those ideals $J$ in $A$ such that $A$ is an…
Building on the work of \.{I}nan and of Almahariq--Peters--Vergili, we develop an axiomatic framework for approximate algebra based on an algebra-compatible closure operator $\Phi^{\!*}$ on a unital ring. The operator is assumed to be…
A term called the quasi-projection pair $(P,Q)$ was introduced recently by the authors, where $P$ is a projection and $Q$ is an idempotent on a Hilbert $C^*$-module $H$ satisfying $Q^*=(2P-I)Q(2P-I)$, in which $Q^*$ is the adjoint operator…
The universal C*-algebra generated by n projections has been described. As an immediate corollary one obtains structure theorem for a pair of projections and the solution to an associated index problem. This puts the study of a pair of…
In this paper we consider we study various classical operator ideals (for instance, the ideals of strictly (co)singular, weakly compact, Dunford-Pettis operators) either on $C^*$-algebras, or preduals of von Neumann algebras.
We characterize the pairs of operator spaces which occur as pairs of Morita equivalence bimodules between non-selfadjoint operator algebras in terms of the mutual relation between the spaces. We obtain a characterization of the operator…
We give an overview of the question: which positive elements in an operator algebra can be written as a linear combination of projections with positive coefficients. A special case of independent interest is the question of which positive…
