Given a finite ring $A$ which is a free left module over a subring $R$ of $A$, two types of $R$-bases, pseudo-self-dual bases (similar to trace orthogonal bases) and symmetric bases, are defined which in turn are used to define duality…

In this paper, we investigate the boundedness of composition operators defined on a quasi-Banach space continuously included in the space of smooth functions on a manifold. We prove that the boundedness of a composition operator strongly…

We show that a representation of a Banach algebra $A$ on a Banach space $X$ can be extended to a canonical representation of $A^{**}$ on $X$ if and only if certain orbit maps $A\to X$ are weakly compact. When this is the case, we show that…

For a certain class of algebras $\cal A$ we give a method for constructing Banach spaces $X$ such that every operator on $X$ is close to an operator in $\cal A$. This is used to produce spaces with a small amount of structure. We present…

Let $M(S)$ be the Banach algebra of all bounded regular Borel measures on a locally compact Hausdorff semitopological semigroup $S$ with variation norm and convolution as multiplication. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for…

Let $\Bc$ denote the real-valued functions continuous on the extended real line and vanishing at $-\infty$. Let $\Br$ denote the functions that are left continuous, have a right limit at each point and vanish at $-\infty$. Define $\acn$ to…

We investigate properties which remain invariant under the action of quasi-M\"obius maps of quasi-metric spaces. A metric space is called doubling with constant D if every ball of finite radius can be covered by at most D balls of half the…

In this paper we classify, up to isomorphism, the superinvolutions on algebras of upper block-triangular matrices over an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from $2$.

Let $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$\ are $C^{{\huge \ast}}% $-algebras\textbf{.} A\textbf{ }linear map $\phi:\mathcal{A\rightarrow B}$ is $C^{\ast}$-Jordan homomorphism if it is a Jordan homomorphism which preserves the adjoint operation.…

We discuss some necessary and some sufficient conditions for an elementary operator $x\mapsto\sum_{i=1}^n a_ixb_i$ on a Banach algebra $A$ to be spectrally bounded. In the case of length three, we obtain a complete characterisation when $A$…

Let M be a surface and R an involution in M whose set of fixed points is a submanifold with dimension 1 and such that R is an isometry. We will show that there is a residual subset of C1 area-preserving R-reversible diffeomorphisms which…

Two kinds of maps that describe evolution of states of a subsystem coming from dynamics described by a unitary operator for a larger system, maps defined for fixed mean values and maps defined for fixed correlations, are found to be quite…

We investigate the category of ``matricial order operator spaces,'' which generalize operator systems, being equipped with both matricial norms and matricial order. For these objects, we develop duality theory. Taking a cue from the theory…

Non-degenerate bilinear forms over fields of characteristic 2, in particular, non-symmetric ones, are classified with respect to various equivalences, and the Lie algebras preserving them are described. Although it is known that there are…

We characterize the Banach spaces X such that Ext(X, C(K))=0 for every compact space.

We investigate the set a) of positive, trace preserving maps acting on density matrices of size N, and a sequence of its nested subsets: the sets of maps which are b) decomposable, c) completely positive, d) extended by identity impose…

A proof using the theory of completely positive maps is given to the fact that if $A \in M_2$, or $A \in M_3$ has a reducing eigenvalue, then every bounded linear operator $B$ with $W(B) \subseteq W(A)$ has a dilation of the form $I \otimes…

We review and analyse techniques from the literature for extending a normed algebra, A to a normed algebra, B, so that B has interesting or desirable properties which A may lack. For example, B might include roots of monic polynomials over…

Let $E$ be a uniformly smooth and uniformly convex real Banach space and $E^*$ be its dual space. Suppose $A : E\rightarrow E^*$ is bounded, strongly monotone and satisfies the range condition such that $A^{-1}(0)\neq \emptyset$. Inspired…

Given a Banach space X and a subspace Y, the pair (X,Y) is said to have the approximation property (AP) provided there is a net of finite rank bounded linear operators on X all of which leave the subspace Y invariant such that the net…
