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.

Given the unital C$^*$-algebra $A$, the unitary orbit of the projector $p_0=\begin{pmatrix}1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 \end{pmatrix}$ in the C$^*$-algebra $M_2(A)$ of $2\times 2$ matrices with coefficients in $A$ is called in this paper, the Riemann…

Let $(R, \mathfrak m)$ denote an $n$-dimensional Gorenstein ring. For an ideal $I \subset R$ of height $c$ we are interested in the endomorphism ring $B = \Hom_R(H^c_I(R), H^c_I(R)).$ It turns out that $B$ is a commutative ring. In the case…

For any k-coalgebra C it is shown that similar quasi-finite C-comodules have strongly equivalent coendomorphism coalgebras; (the converse is in general not true). As an application we give a general result about codepth two coalgebra…

We study the x- and y-regularity of a bigraded K-algebra R. These notions are used to study asymptotic properties of certain finitely generated bigraded modules. As an application we get for any equigenerated graded ideal I upper bounds for…

For a Banach algebra $A$ with a bounded approximate identity, we investigate the $A$-module homomorphisms of certain introverted subspaces of $A^*$, and show that all $A$-module homomorphisms of $A^*$ are normal if and only if $A$ is an…

We study the two-parameter quantized enveloping algebra $U^+_{r,s}(B_2)$ at roots of unity and investigate its structure and representations. We first show that when $r$ and $s$ are roots of unity, the algebra becomes a PI algebra, and we…

Let $R$ be an associative unital algebra over a field $k,$ let $p$ be an element of $R,$ and let $R'=R\langle q\mid pqp= p\rangle.$ We obtain normal forms for elements of $R',$ and for elements of $R'$-modules arising by extension of…

Let $a$ be a regular element of a ring $R$. If either $K:=\rm{r}_R(a)$ has the exchange property or every power of $a$ is regular, then we prove that for every positive integer $n$ there exist decompositions $$ R_R = K \oplus X_n \oplus Y_n…

We introduce the notion of finite right (respectively left) numerical index on a bimodule $X$ over C*-algebras A and B with a bi-Hilbertian structure. This notion is based on a Pimsner-Popa type inequality. The right (respectively left)…

Let $\mathscr{C}_{+}(a,b)$ be the submonoid of the bicyclic monoid which is studied in \cite{Makanjuola-Umar=1997}. We describe monoid endomorphisms of the semigroup $\mathscr{C}_{+}(a,b)$ which are generated by the family of all…

We establish a description of the maximal C*-algebra of quotients of a unital C*-algebra $A$ as a direct limit of spaces of completely bounded bimodule homomorphisms from certain operator submodules of the Haagerup tensor product…

Let R be a commutative ring with identity and M be an R-module. The purpose of this paper is to introduced the dual notion of z-submodules of M and some of extensions. Moreover, we investigate some properties of these classes of modules…

In this paper we consider algebras with involution over a ring C which is given by the quadratic extension by i of an ordered ring R. We discuss the *-representation theory of such *-algebras on pre-Hilbert spaces over C and develop the…

We say that a ring $R$ is t-unital if the natural map $R\otimes_RR\rightarrow R$ is an isomorphism, and a left $R$-module $P$ is c-unital if the natural map $P\rightarrow\operatorname{Hom}_R(R,P)$ is an isomorphism. For a t-unital ring $R$,…

We prove that every rigid C*-bicategory with finite-dimensional centers (finitely decomposable horizontal units) can be realized as Connes' bimodules over finite direct sums of II$_1$ factors. In particular, we realize every multitensor…

We start with observing that the only connected finite dimensional algebras with finitely many isomorphism classes of indecomposable bimodules are the quotients of the path algebras of uniformly oriented $A_n$-quivers modulo the radical…

It was shown recently by M. Lorentz and R. Willett that all bounded derivations of the uniform Roe algebras of metric spaces of bounded geometry are inner. Here we calculate the space of outer derivations of the uniform Roe algebras with…

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…

In previous work we introduced the notion of binomial cup-one algebras, which are differential graded algebras endowed with Steenrod $\cup_1$-products and compatible binomial operations. In this paper we show that binomial cup-one algebras…
