In the given article the notion of infinite norm decomposition of a C$^*$-algebra is investigated. The norm decomposition is some generalization of Peirce decomposition. It is proved that the infinite norm decomposition of any C$^*$-algebra…

In this paper, we investigate the general properties and structure of $C^*$-extreme points within the $C^*$-convex set $\mathrm{UCP}(\mathcal{A},B(\mathcal{H}))$ of all unital completely positive (UCP) maps from a unital real $C^*$-algebra…

Suppose $\mathcal{A}$ is a separable unital ASH C*-algebra, $\mathcal{R}$ is a sigma-finite II$_{\infty}$ factor von Neumann algebra, and $\pi,\rho :\mathcal{A}\rightarrow\mathcal{R}$ are unital $\ast$-homomorphisms such that, for every…

We define E-theory for separable C*-algebras over second countable topological spaces and establish its basic properties. This includes an approximation theorem that relates the E-theory over a general space to the E-theories over finite…

We define an admissible decomposition of a graph $E$ into subgraphs $F_1$ and $F_2$, and consider the intersection graph $F_1\cap F_2$ as a subgraph of both $F_1$ and $F_2$. We prove that, if the graph $E$ is row finite and its…

In this paper we give characterizations of essential left ideals of a C*-algebra $A$ in terms of their properties as operator $A$-modules. Conversely, we seek C*-algebraic characterizations of those ideals $J$ in $A$ such that $A$ is an…

In this paper, we discuss the associated family of harmonic maps $\mathcal{F}: M \rightarrow G/K$ from a Riemann surface $M$ into inner symmetric spaces of compact or non-compact type which are either algebraic or totally symmetric. These…

Let $F$ be an algebraically closed field and consider the Lie algebra ${\mathfrak g}=\langle x\rangle\ltimes {\mathfrak a}$, where $\mathrm{ad}\, x$ acts diagonalizably on the abelian Lie algebra ${\mathfrak a}$. Refer to a ${\mathfrak…

Both completely positive and completely copositive maps stay decomposable under tensor powers, i.e under tensoring the linear map with itself. But are there other examples of maps with this property? We show that this is not the case: Any…

In this paper, we prove that if $\mathcal{A}$ is a unital separable $C^*$-algebra, $\mathcal{M}$ is a von Neumann algebra which has the Kirchberg's quotient weak expectation property (QWEP), and $\phi:\, \mathcal{A}\rightarrow \mathcal{M}$…

This paper contains a quite detailed description of the C*-algebra arising from the transformation groupoid of a rational map of degree at least two on the Riemann sphere. The algebra is decomposed stepwise via extensions of familiar…

We prove a number of results having to do with equipping type-I $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras with compact quantum group structures, the two main ones being that such a compact quantum group is necessarily co-amenable, and that if the…

A Banach involutive algebra is called a Krein C*-algebra if there is a fundamental symmetry (an involutive automorphism of period 2) such that the C*-property is satisfied when the original involution is replaced with the new one obtained…

We describe absolutely ordered $p$-normed spaces, for $1 \le p \le \infty$ which presents a model for "non-commutative" vector lattices and includes order theoretic orthogonality. To demonstrate its relevance, we introduce the notion of…

For every finite dimensional Lie supergroup $(G,\mathfrak g)$, we define a $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal A:=\mathcal A(G,\mathfrak g)$, and show that there exists a canonical bijective correspondence between unitary representations of…

Let $A$ be a unital Banach algebra. We give a characterization of the left Banach $A$-modules $X$ for which there exists a commutative unital $C^*$-algebra $C(K)$, a linear isometry $i\colon X\to C(K)$, and a contractive unital homomorphism…

We prove that a discrete group $G$ is amenable iff it is strongly unitarizable in the following sense: every unitarizable representation $\pi$ on $G$ can be unitarized by an invertible chosen in the von Neumann algebra generated by the…

This paper brings together C*-algebras and algebraic topology in terms of viewing a C*-algebraic invariant in terms of a topological spectrum. E-theory, E(A,B), is a bivariant functor in the sense that is a cohomology functor in the first…

Let A be a unital C*-algebra. We shall introduce involutive A-A-equivalence bimodules and prove that any C*-algebra containing A with Watatani index 2 is constructed by an involutive A-A-equivalence bimodule.

We show that, when $A$ is a separable C*-algebra, every countably generated Hilbert $A$-module is projective (with bounded module maps as morphisms). We also study the approximate extensions of bounded module maps. In the case that $A$ is a…
