The theory of Toeplitz quantization presented in our previous paper is extended and further developed to include diverse and interesting non-commutative realizations of the classical Euclidean plane. This is done using Hilbert spaces of…

In this paper we give an example of a proper standard C*-algebra (a proper C*-subalgebra of B(H) containing C(H)) whose automorphism and isometry groups are topologically reflexive. Furthermore, we prove that in the case of extensions of…

Let $\lambda$ be a complex number in the closed unit disc $\overline{\Bbb D}$, and $\cal H$ be a separable Hilbert space with the orthonormal basis, say, ${\cal E}=\{e_n:n=0,1,2,\cdots\}$. A bounded operator $T$ on $\cal H$ is called a {\em…

We study the elementary C*-algebra whose elements are the sum of a diagonal plus a compact operator. We describe the structure of the unitary group, the sets of ideals, automorhisms and projections.

We determine the ideal structure of the Toeplitz C*-algebra on the bidisk.

To a graph $\Gamma$ one can associate a C^*-algebra $C^*(\Gamma)$ generated by isometries. Such $C^*$-algebras were studied recently by Crisp and Laca. They are a special case of the Toeplitz C^*-algebras $\mathcal{T}(G, P)$ associated to…

The algebra of Dirichlet series $\mathcal{A}(\mathcal{C}_{+})$ consists on those Dirichlet series convergent in the right half-plane $\mathcal{C}_{+}$ and which are also uniformly continuous there. This algebra was recently introduced by…

In the present paper we study the structure of C^*-algebras generated by the components of the polar decompositions of operators in Hilbert space satisfying certain commutation relations.

We present and study C*-algebras generated by "periodic weighted creation operators" on the Fock space associated with an automorphism $\alpha$ on a C*-algebra $A$. These algebras can be viewed as generalized Bunce-Deddens algebras…

Motivated by the work of Nazarov and Shapiro on the unit disk, we study asymptotic Toeplitzness of composition operators on the Hardy space of the unit sphere in C^n. We extend some of their results but we also show that new phenomena…

We associate with the ring $R$ of algebraic integers in a number field a C*-algebra $\cT[R]$. It is an extension of the ring C*-algebra $\cA[R]$ studied previously by the first named author in collaboration with X.Li. In contrast to…

The (abstract) Cuntz algebra is generated by non-unitary isometries and has therefore no intrinsic finiteness properties. To approximate the elements of the Cuntz algebra by finite-dimensional objects, we thus consider a spatial…

In this work we study the essential spectra of composition operators on Hardy spaces of analytic functions which might be termed as "quasi-parabolic". This is the class of composition operators on H^{2} with symbols whose conjugate with the…

We say that a contractive Hilbert space operator is universal if there is a natural surjection from its generated C*-algebra to the C*-algebra generated by any other contraction. A universal contraction may be irreducible or a direct sum of…

Suppose $\mathcal{H}$ is a weighted Hardy space of analytic functions on the unit ball $\mathbb{B}_n\subset\mathbb{C}^n$ such that the composition operator $C_\psi$ defined by $C_{\psi}f=f\circ\psi$ is bounded on $\mathcal{H}$ whenever…

The C*-algebra generated by the left-regular representation of $\mathbb{N}^n$ twisted by a $2$-cocycle is a Toeplitz extension of an $n$-dimensional noncommutative torus, on which each vector $r \in [0,\infty)^n$ determines a one-parameter…

In this article, we completely characterize the complex symmetry, cyclicity and hypercyclicity of composition operators $C_\phi f=f\circ\phi$ induced by affine self-maps $\phi$ of the right half-plane $\mathbb{C}_+$ on the Hardy-Hilbert…

We study multivariate generalisations of the classical Wiener--Hopf algebra, which is the C$^*$-algebra generated by the Wiener--Hopf operators, given by the convolutions restricted to convex cones. By the work of Muhly and Renault, this…

The non-commutative analytic Toeplitz algebra is the weak operator topology closed algebra generated by the left regular representation of the free semigroup on $n$ generators. The structure theory of contractions in these algebras is…

We introduce certain $C^*$-algebras and $k$-graphs associated to $k$ finite dimensional unitary representations $\rho_1,...,\rho_k$ of a compact group $G$. We define a higher rank Doplicher-Roberts algebra $\mathcal{O}_{\rho_1,...,\rho_k}$,…
