Let X be a Hilbert bimodule over a C*-algebra A and $O_X= A \rtimes_X \Z$. Using a finite section method we construct a sequence of completely positive contractions factoring through matrix algebras over A which act on $s_{\xi} s_{\eta}^*$…

In this paper we first prove the metric approximation property for weighted mixed-norm $L_w^{(p_1,\dots ,p_n)}$ spaces. Using Gabor frame representation this implies that the same property holds in weighted modulation and Wiener amalgam…

In this paper, we study the rigidity of uniform Roe algebras via the ideal structures. We showed that for given metric spaces X and Y with bounded geometry, if their uniform Roe algebras are isomorphic, then they are coarse equivalent.

This article introduces and studies the tight approximation property, a property of algebraic varieties defined over the function field of a complex or real curve that refines the weak approximation property (and the known cohomological…

Let $A$ be a unital operator algebra. Let us assume that every {\it bounded\/} unital homomorphism $u\colon \ A\to B(H)$ is similar to a {\it contractive\/} one. Let $\text{\rm Sim}(u) = \inf\{\|S\|\, \|S^{-1}\|\}$ where the infimum runs…

We show that an automorphism of a unital AF C*-algebra with the approximate Rohlin property has the Rohlin property. This generalizes a result of Kishimoto. Using this we show that the shift automorphism on the bilateral C*-algebra…

We solve the rigidity problem for uniform Roe algebras, by showing that two uniformly locally finite metric spaces with isomorphic uniform Roe algebras are bijectively coarsely equivalent.

In this paper we study structural and uniqueness questions for Cartan subalgebras of uniform Roe algebras. We characterise when an inclusion $B\subseteq A$ of $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras is isomorphic to the canonical inclusion of…

For a discrete metric space (or more generally a large scale space) $X$ and an action of a group $G$ on $X$ by coarse equivalences, we define a type of coarse quotient space $X_G$, which agrees up to coarse equivalence with the orbit space…

To every finite-dimensional $\mathbb C$-algebra $\Lambda$ of finite representation type we associate an affine variety. These varieties are a large generalization of the varieties defined by "$u$ variables" satisfying "$u$-equations", first…

We introduce the notion of proper proximality for finite von Neumann algebras, which naturally extends the notion of proper proximality for groups. Apart from the group von Neumann algebras of properly proximal groups, we provide a number…

The aim of this article is to describe a class of *-algebras that allows to treat well-behaved algebras of unbounded operators independently of a representation. To this end, Archimedean ordered *-algebras (*-algebras whose real linear…

Let $A$ be a homogeneous C*-algebra and $\phi$ a state on $A.$ We show that if $\phi$ satisfies a certain faithfulness condition, then there is a net of finite-rank, unital completely positive, $\phi$-preserving maps on $A$ that tend to the…

We prove several results on the permanence of weak amenability and the Haagerup property for discrete quantum groups. In particular, we improve known facts on free products by allowing amalgamation over a finite quantum subgroup. We also…

In the present article, it is proved that every nuclear operator in a locally convex space E has a well-defined trace if E possesses the approximation property. However, even if a space possesses the approximation property this still does…

We introduce the Property (C) for a unital commutative sub-C*-algebra $D$ of a unital C*-algebra $A$, a version of the relative comparison property using almost normalizers. Under the assumption of this property, the $\mathcal Z$-absorption…

Our main result about rigidity of Roe algebras is the following: if $X$ and $Y$ are metric spaces with bounded geometry such that their Roe algebras are $*$-isomorphic, then $X$ and $Y$ are coarsely equivalent provided that either $X$ or…
