Let $V$ and $W$ be finite dimensional real vector spaces and let $G\subset\GL(V)$ and $H\subset\GL(W)$ be finite subgroups. Assume for simplicity that the actions contain no reflections. Let $Y$ and $Z$ denote the real algebraic varieties…

Let R be an algebraic curvature tensor for a non-degenerate inner product of signature(p,q) where q>4. If $\pi$ is a spacelike 2 plane, let $R(\pi)$ be the associated skew-symmetric curvature operator. We classify the algebraic curvature…

In this paper, given a module $W$ for a vertex operator algebra $V$ and a nonzero complex number $z$ we construct a canonical (weak) $V\otimes V$-module ${\cal{D}}_{P(z)}(W)$ (a subspace of $W^{*}$ depending on $z$). We prove that for…

A commuting triple of operators $(A,B,P)$ on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ is called a tetrablock contraction if the closure of the set $$ E = \{\underline{x}=(x_1,x_2,x_3)\in \mathbb{C}^3: 1-x_1z-x_2w+x_3zw \neq 0 \text{whenever}|z| \leq…

For an invertible linear operator $T$ on a Hilbert space $H$, put \[ \alpha(T^*,T) := -T^{*2}T^2 + (1+r^2) T^* T - r^2 I, \] where $I$ stands for the identity operator on $H$ and $r\in (0,1)$; this expression comes from applying Agler's…

Let $X$ and $Y$ be separable Banach spaces. Suppose $Y$ either has a shrinking basis or $Y$ is isomorphic to $C(2^\mathbb{N})$ and $A$ is a subset of weakly compact operators from $X$ to $Y$ which is analytic in the strong operator…

We reveal new aspects of the structure of Hilbert space $C_0$-semigroups $\mathcal T = (T(t))_{t\ge 0}$ similar to semigroups of contractions. In particular, we prove that $\mathcal T$ is similar to a semigroup of contractions if and only…

We investigate the rigidity of the $\ell^p$ analog of Roe-type algebras. In particular, we show that if $p\in[1,\infty)\setminus\{2\}$, then an isometric isomorphism between the $\ell^p$ uniform Roe algebras of two metric spaces with…

Roe algebras are C*-algebras built using large-scale (or 'coarse') aspects of a metric space (X,d). In the special case that X=G is a finitely generated group and d is a word metric, the simplest Roe algebra associated to (G,d) is…

This is an introduction to the algebras $A\subset B(H)$ that the linear operators $T:H\to H$ can form, once a complex Hilbert space $H$ is given. Motivated by quantum mechanics, we are mainly interested in the von Neumann algebras, which…

We prove the Verlinde conjecture in the following general form: Let V be a simple vertex operator algebra satisfying the following conditions: (i) The homogeneous subspaces of V of weights less than 0 are 0, the homogeneous subspace of V of…

A new condition called ${\cal T}$ condition is introduced for the first time and used to study a pair of isotopic loops. Under this condition, a loop in the pair is a WIPL if and only if the other loop is a WIPL. Furthermore, such WIPLs are…

We give an affirmative answer to the question whether there exist Lie algebras for suitable closed subgroups of the unitary group $U(\mathcal{H})$ in a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ with $U(\mathcal{H})$ equipped with the strong operator…

The goal of this paper is to study when uniform Roe algebras have certain $C^*$-algebraic properties in terms of the underlying space: in particular, we study properties like having stable rank one or real rank zero that are thought of as…

It is, by now, classical that lattices in higher rank semisimple groups have various rigidity properties. In this work, we add another such rigidity property to the list: uniform stability with respect to the family of unitary operators on…

Taking matrix as a synonym for a numerical function on the Cartesian product of two (in general, infinite) sets, a simple purely algebraic "reciprocity property" says that the set of rows spans a finite-dim space iff the set of columns does…

We embark upon a systematic investigation of operator space structure of JC*-triples via a study of the TROs (ternary rings of operators) they generate. Our approach is to introduce and develop a variety of universal objects, including…

In this paper, we present some necessary and sufficient conditions for semi-compact operators being almost L-weakly compact (resp. almost M-weakly compact) and the converse. Mainly, we prove that if $X$ is a nonzero Banach space, then every…

This paper presents Wold-type decomposition for various pairs of twisted contractions on Hilbert spaces. As a consequence, we obtain Wold-type decomposition for pairs of doubly twisted isometries and in particular, new and simple proof of…

Let $A$ be a bounded, injective and self-adjoint linear operator on a complex separable Hilbert space. We prove that there is a pure isometry, $V$, so that $AV>0$ and $A$ is Hankel with respect to $V$, i.e. $V^*A = AV$, if and only if $A$…
