A result of Gilbert shows that every completely bounded multiplier $f$ of the Fourier algebra $A(G)$ arises from a pair of bounded continuous maps $\alpha,\beta:G \rightarrow K$, where $K$ is a Hilbert space, and $f(s^{-1}t) =…
The famous Rosenthal-Lacey theorem asserts that for each infinite compact set $K$ the Banach space $C(K)$ admits a quotient which is either a copy of $c$ or $\ell_{2}$. What is the case when the uniform topology of $C(K)$ is replaced by the…
We generalise the quantum double construction of Drinfel'd to the case of the (Hopf) algebra of suitable functions on a compact or locally compact group. We will concentrate on the *-algebra structure of the quantum double. If the conjugacy…
This paper studies the "energy space" $\mathcal{H}_{\mathcal{E}}$ (the Hilbert space of functions of finite energy, aka the Dirichlet-finite functions) on an infinite network (weighted connected graph), from the point of view of the…
We prove that, when two local quantum channels are used paralleled, the quantum-correlating power (QCP) of the composed channel is no less than the sum of QCP of the two channels. For local channels with zero QCP, the super-activation of…
Richard Kadison showed that not every commutative von Neumann subalgebra of a factor von Neumann algebra is equal to its relative double commutant. We prove that every commutative C*-subalgebra of a centrally prime C*-algebra $B$ equals its…
We consider non-selfadjoint operator algebras $\mathfrak{L}(G,\lambda)$ generated by weighted creation operators on the Fock-Hilbert spaces of countable directed graphs $G$. These algebras may be viewed as noncommutative generalizations of…
On $\mathbb R^N$ equipped with a root system $R$, multiplicity function $k \geq 0$, and the associated measure $dw(\mathbf{x})=\prod_{\alpha \in R}|\langle \mathbf{x},\alpha\rangle|^{k(\alpha)}\,d\mathbf{x}$, we consider a (non-radial)…
Let $D$ be a division ring and $K$ a subfield of $D$ which is not necessarily contained in the center $F$ of $D$. In this paper, we study the structure of $D$ under the condition of left algebraicity of certain subsets of $D$ over $K$.…
We construct a family of non-PCF dendrites $K$ in a plane, such that in each of them all subarcs have the same Hausdorff dimension $s$, while the set of $s$-dimensional Hausdorff measures of subarcs connecting the given point and a…
We show that $C(X)$ admits an equivalent pointwise lower semicontinuous locally uniformly rotund norm provided $X$ is Fedorchuk compact of spectral height 3. In other words $X$ admits a fully closed map $f$ onto a metric compact $Y$ such…
In operator-algebraic AQFT one routinely moves back and forth between two kinds of structure: inclusions of local algebras coming from inclusions of regions, and bimodules/intertwiners that implement the standard $L^2$-based constructions…
This paper defines a pairing of two finite Hopf C*-algebras $A$ and $B$, and investigates the interactions between them. If the pairing is non-degenerate, then the quantum double construction is given. This construction yields a new finite…
We consider the dynamics of transcendental self-maps of the punctured plane, $\mathbb{C}^*=\mathbb{C}\setminus \{0\}$. We prove that the escaping set $I(f)$ is either connected, or has infinitely many components. We also show that $I(f)\cup…
The matrix normed structure of the unitization of a (non-selfadjoint) operator algebra is determined by that of the original operator algebra. This yields a classification up to completely isometric isomorphism of two-dimensional unital…
The local Hamiltonian problem is famously complete for the class QMA, the quantum analogue of NP. The complexity of its semi-classical version, in which the terms of the Hamiltonian are required to commute (the CLH problem), has attracted…
We construct a ZFC example of a nonmetrizable compact space $K$ such that every totally disconnected closed subspace $L\subseteq K$ is metrizable. In fact, the construction can be arranged so that every nonmetrizable compact subspace may be…
Let G be a second countable, locally compact group and let f be a continuous Herz-Schur multiplier on G. Our main result gives the existence of a (not necessarily uniformly bounded) strongly continuous representation on a Hilbert space,…
Given a polynomial or a rational map f we associate to it a space of maps. We introduce local coordinates in this space, which are essentially the set of critical values of the map. Then we consider an arbitrary periodic orbit of f with…
We present a simple and intuitive framework for duality of locally compacts groups, which is not based on the Haar measure. This is a map, functorial on a non-degenerate subcategory, on the category of coinvolutive Hopf \cst-algebras, and a…
