We prove a number of results having to do with equipping type-I $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras with compact quantum group structures, the two main ones being that such a compact quantum group is necessarily co-amenable, and that if the…

This book treats: - spectral theory of Banach *-algebras, - basic representation theory of normed *-algebras, - spectral theory of representations of commutative *-algebras. A novel feature of the book is the construction of the enveloping…

We study the class of pseudocompact C*-algebras, which are the logical limits of finite-dimensional C*-algebras. The pseudocompact C*-algebras are unital, stably finite, real rank zero, stable rank one, and tracial. We show that the…

Nuclear $C^*$-algebras having a system of completely positive approximations formed with convex combinations of a uniformly bounded number of order zero summands are shown to be approximately finite dimensional.

A pro-C^*-algebra is a (projective) limit of C^*-algebras in the category of topological *-algebras. From the perspective of non-commutative geometry, pro-C^*-algebras can be seen as non-commutative k-spaces. An element of a pro-C^*-algebra…

In this paper, we introduce a class of non-unital tracial approximation ${\rm C^*}$-algebras. Consider the class of ${\rm C^*}$-algebras which are tracially $\mathcal{Z}$-absorbing (in the sense of Amint, Golestani, Jamali, Phillips's…

For a Banach D-bimodule M over an abelian unital C*-algebra D, we define E(M) as the collection of norm-one eigenvectors for the dual action of D on the Banach space dual of M. Equip E(M) with the weak-* topology. We develop general…

We construct uncountably many mutually nonisomorphic simple separable stably finite unital exact C$^\ast$-algebras which are not isomorphic to their opposite algebras. In particular, we prove that there are uncountably many possibilities…

We show that the following properties of unital ${\rm C^*}$-algebra in a class of $\Omega$ are preserved by unital simple ${\rm C^*}$-algebra in the class of $\rm WTA\Omega$: $(1)$ uniform property $\Gamma$, $(2)$ a certain type of tracial…

We study (von Neumann) regular $^*$-subalgebras of $B(H)$, which we call R$^*$-algebras. The class of R$^*$-algebras coincides with that of "E$^*$-algebras that are pre-C$^*$-algebras" in the sense of Z. Sz\H{u}cs and B. Tak\'acs. We give…

We study Banach $\widetilde{\mathbb C}$-algebras, i.e., complete ultra-pseudo-normed algebras over the ring $\widetilde{\mathbb C}$ of Colombeau generalized complex numbers. We develop a spectral theory in such algebras. We show by explicit…

We consider three notions of divisibility in the Cuntz semigroup of a C*-algebra, and show how they reflect properties of the C*-algebra. We develop methods to construct (simple and non-simple) C*-algebras with specific divisibility…

It is shown that all the approximately finite dimensional C*-algebras which are not of Type I are isomorphic as Banach spaces. This generalises the matroid case given previously by Arazy. Analogous results are obtained for various families…
