Differential operators usually result in derivatives expressed as a ratio of differentials. For all but the simplest derivatives, these ratios are typically not algebraically manipulable, but must be held together as a unit in order to…

In this article we prove a general result which in particular suggests that, on a simply connected domain in C, all the derivatives and anti-derivatives of the generic holomorphic function are unbounded. A similar result holds for the…

This paper is concerned with derivations in algebras of (unbounded) operators affiliated with a von Neumann algebra $\mathcal{M}$. Let $\mathcal{% A}$ be one of the algebras of measurable operators, locally measurable operators or, $\tau…

We take a new look at dilation theory for nonself-adjoint operator algebras. Among the extremal (co)extensions of a representation, there is a special property of being fully extremal. This allows a refinement of some of the classical…

Let $k$ be a commutative ring and $A$ a commutative $k$-algebra. In this paper we introduce the notion of enveloping algebra of Hasse--Schmidt derivations of $A$ over $k$ and we prove that, under suitable smoothness hypotheses, the…

We introduce null contractions of the Poincare and relativistic conformal algebras. The longitudinal null contraction involves writing the algebra in lightcone coordinates and contracting one of the null directions. For the Poincare…

Let ${\mathcal A}$ be the class of functions $f$ that are analytic in the unit disk ${\mathbb D}$ and normalized such that $f(z)=z+a_2z^2+a_3z^3+\cdots$. Let $0<\lambda\le1$ and \[ {\mathcal U}(\lambda) = \left\{ f\in{\mathcal A}: \left…

Let $D$ be a closed disk in the complex plane centered at the origin, $f, g$ complex valued continuous function on $D$. Let $P[f,g; D]$ (res. $R[f, g; D])$) be the uniform closure on $D$ of polynomials (res. rational functions) in variables…

The algebra of diffeomorphisms derived from general coordinate transformations on commuting coordinates is represented by differential operators on noncommutative spaces. The algebra remains unchanged, the comultiplication however is…

We study a certain class of non-maximal rank contractions of the nilpotent Lie algebra $\frak{g}_{m}$ and show that these contractions are completable Lie algebras. As a consequence a family of solvable complete Lie algebras of non-maximal…

We prove that if $X$ and $Y$ are first countable compact Hausdorff spaces, then the set of all diameter-preserving linear bijections from $C(X)$ to $C(Y)$ is algebraically reflexive.

Let $\mathcal{T}_{+}(E)$ be the tensor algebra of a $W^{*}$-correspondence $E$ over a $W^{*}$-algebra $M$. In earlier work, we showed that the completely contractive representations of $\mathcal{T}_{+}(E)$, whose restrictions to $M$ are…

Let $A$ be a unital $B_{0}$-algebra with an orthogonal basis, then every multiplicative linear functional on $A$ is continuous. This gives an answer to a problem posed by Z. Sawon and Z. Wronski.

We exhibit an adjunction between a category of abstract algebras of partial functions and a category of set quotients. The algebras are those atomic algebras representable as a collection of partial functions closed under relative…

We show that there are precisely two, up to conjugation, anti-involutions sigma_{\pm} of the algebra of differential operators on the circle preserving the principal gradation. We classify the irreducible quasifinite highest weight…

The parabolic algebra A_p is the weakly closed algebra on L^2(R) generated by the unitary semigroup of right translations and the unitary semigroup of multiplication by the analytic exponential functions e^{i\lambda x}, \lambda \geq 0. This…

Lie algebra contractions on the classical Drinfel'd Double of a given Lie bialgebra are introduced and compared to the usual Lie bialgebra contraction theory. The connection between both approaches turns out to be intimately linked to…

We show that, if A is a separable simple unital C*-algebra which absorbs the Jiang-Su algebra Z tensorially and which has real rank zero and finite decomposition rank, then A is tracially AF in the sense of Lin, without any restriction on…

We study the character of the infinite wedge projective representation of the algebra of differential operators on the circle. We prove quasi-modularity of this character and also compute certain generating functions for traces of…

In this paper we give an example of a proper standard C*-algebra (a proper C*-subalgebra of B(H) containing C(H)) whose automorphism and isometry groups are topologically reflexive. Furthermore, we prove that in the case of extensions of…
