We study two notions of largeness for closed submodules of Hilbert C*-modules: essentiality and topological essentiality. While the analogous properties are known to be equivalent for closed two-sided ideals of C*-algebras, the one-sided…
A $\Sigma^*$-algebra is a concrete $C^*$-algebra that is sequentially closed in the weak operator topology. We study an appropriate class of $C^*$-modules over $\Sigma^*$-algebras analogous to the class of $W^*$-modules (selfdual…
We introduce a concept of the bounded rank (with respect to a positive constant) for unital C*-algebras as a modification of the usual real rank and present a series of conditions insuring that bounded and real ranks coincide. These…
In the present paper we develop both ideas of D. Baki\'c and B. Gulja{\v{s}} and the categorical approach to multipliers from E.C. Lance's book and publications of the second author, for the introduction and study of left multipliers of…
It is shown that if A is a stably finite C*-algebra and E is a countably generated Hilbert A-module, then E gives rise to a compact element of the Cuntz semigroup if and only if E is algebraically finitely generated and projective. It…
We show that pure strongly continuous semigroups of adjointable isometries on a Hilbert C*-module are standard right shifts. By counter examples, we illustrate that the analogy of this result with the classical result on Hilbert spaces by…
Continuous actions of topological groups on compact Hausdorff spaces $X$ are investigated which induce almost periodic functions in the corresponding commutative C*-algebra. The unique invariant mean on the group resulting from averaging…
We study a class of stably projectionless simple C*-algebras which may be viewed as having generalized tracial rank one in analogy with the unital case. Some structural question concerning these simple C*-algebras are studied. The paper…
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…
A classification theorem is obtained for a class of unital simple separable amenable Z-stable C*-algebras which exhausts all possible values of the Elliott invariant for unital stably finite simple separable amenable Z-stable C*-algebras.…
Analogues for Hilbert C*-modules of classical results of Fourier series theory in Hilbert spaces are considered. Relations between different properties of orthogonal and orthonormal systems for Hilbert C*-modules are studied with special…
Let (X,H) be a polarized smooth projective surface satisfying H^1(X,O_X)=0 and let F be either a rank one torsion-free sheaf or a rank two {\mu}H-stable vector bundle on X. Assume that c_1(F)/=0. In this article it is shown that the rank…
We prove that separable, simple, unital, non-elementary, stably finite C*-algebras that have stable rank one, and that have locally finite nuclear dimension in a tracial sense, have uniform property $\Gamma$. In particular, Villadsen…
As a partial generalisation of the Uhlhorn theorem to Hilbert $C^*$-modules, we show in this article that the module structure and the orthogonality structure of a Hilbert $C^*$-module determine its Hilbert $C^*$-module structure. In fact,…
The connected stable rank and the general stable rank are homotopy invariants for Banach algebras, whereas the Bass stable rank and the topological stable rank should be thought of as dimensional invariants. This paper studies the two…
We provide a negative solution to a question of M. Rieffel who asked if the right and left topological stable ranks of a Banach algebra must always agree. Our example is found amongst a class of nest algebras. We show that for many other…
It is shown that the metric on the union of the sets $X$ and $Y$ defines a Hilbert $C^*$-module over the uniform Roe algebra of the space $X$ with a fixed metric $d_X$. A number of examples of such Hilbert $C^*$-modules are described.
Let A be a unital maximal full algebra of operator fields with base space the k-cube [0,1]^k and fibre algebras, say, {A_t}_{t \in [0,1]^k}. Then the stable rank of A is bounded above by the supremum of the stable ranks sr(C([0,1]^k)…
A long-standing open question in the theory of group actions on C*-algebras is the stable rank of the crossed product. Specifically, N. C. Phillips asked that if a finite group $G$ acts on a simple unital C*-algebra $A$ with stable rank…
In this paper, we characterize a class of additive maps on Hilbert $C^\ast$-modules which maps a "rank one" adjointable operators to another rank one operators.
