We study $C^*$-algebras generated by Toeplitz operators acting on the standard weighted Bergman space $\mathcal{A}_{\lambda}^2(\mathbb{B}^n)$ over the unit ball $\mathbb{B}^n$ in $\mathbb{C}^n$. The symbols $f_{ac}$ of generating operators…

Let $X$ be a zero-dimensional space and $C_c(X)$ be the set of all continuous real valued functions on $X$ with countable image. In this article we denote by $C_c^K(X)$ (resp., $C_{c}^{\psi}(X)$) the set of all functions in $C_c(X)$ with…

For a Banach space $X$, let $\mathcal{L}(X)$ denote the algebra of all bounded linear operators on $X$ and let $\mathcal{K}(X)$ denote the compact operator ideal in $\mathcal{L}(X)$. The quotient algebra $\mathcal{L}(X)/\mathcal{K}(X)$ is…

Let $E$ be a Banach space that does not contain any copy of $\ell^1$ and $\A$ be a non commutative $C^*$-algebra. We prove that every absolutely summing operator from $\A$ into $E^*$ is compact, thus answering a question of Pe\l czynski. As…

For 0 < s < 1, let phi_s(z)=sz+(1-s). We investigate the unital C*-algebra generated by the semigroup {C_{phi_s} : 0 < s < 1} of composition operators acting on the Hardy space of the unit disk. We determine the joint approximate point…

We prove the Plancherel formula for spherical Schwartz functions on a reductive symmetric space. Our starting point is an inversion formula for spherical smooth compactly supported functions. The latter formula was earlier obtained from the…

A surjective endomorphism or, more generally, a polymorphism in the sense of \cite{SV}, of a compact abelian group $H$ induces a transformation of $L^2(H)$. We study the C*-algebra generated by this operator together with the algebra of…

Let $G$ be a real reductive connected Lie group and $\sigma$ an involution of $G$. Let $H$ denote the identity component of the group of fixed points of $\sigma$, $\mathfrak g$ the Lie algebra of $G$ and $\mathfrak q$ the -1 eigenspace of…

This paper contains computations of the Cuntz semigroup of separable C*-algebras of the form C_0(X,A), where A is a unital, simple, Z-stable ASH algebra. The computations describe the Cuntz semigroup in terms of Murray-von Neumann…

We prove a characterization of profinite algebras, i.e., topological algebras that are isomorphic to a projective limit of finite discrete algebras. In general profiniteness concerns both the topological and algebraic characteristics of a…

The partition algebras are algebras of diagrams (which contain the group algebra of the symmetric group and the Brauer algebra) such that the multiplication is given by a combinatorial rule and such that the structure constants of the…

Let $\Gamma$ be a countable discrete group. Given any sequence $(f_n)_{n\geq 1}$ of $\ell^p$-normalized functions ($p\in [1,2)$), consider the associated positive definite matrix coefficients $\langle f_n, \rho(\cdot) f_n\rangle$ of the…

We examine several classical concepts from topology and functional analysis, using methods of commutative algebra. We show that these various concepts are all controlled by BC R-rings and their maximal spectra. A BC R-ring is a ring A that…

We show that the tangle space of a graph, which compactifies it, is a quotient of its Stone-\v{C}ech remainder obtained by contracting the connected components.

The paper introduces a (universal) C*-algebra of continuous functions vanishing at infinity on the n-dimensional quantum complex space. To this end, the well-behaved Hilbert space representations of the defining relations are classified.…
