Let $L$ be a positive self-adjoint operator on $L^2(X)$, where $X$ is a $\sigma$-finite metric measure space. When $\alpha \in (0,1)$, the subordinated semigroup $\{\exp(-tL^{\alpha}):t \in \mathbb{R}^+\}$ can be defined on $L^2(X)$ and…

We say that a nonselfadjoint operator algebra is partly free if it contains a free semigroup algebra. Motivation for such algebras occurs in the setting of what we call free semigroupoid algebras. These are the weak operator topology closed…

This paper is the first in a series of papers developing a functional-analytic theory of vertex (operator) algebras and their representations. For an arbitrary Z-graded finitely-generated vertex algebra (V, Y, 1) satisfying the standard…

We study the fixed point subalgebra of a certain class of lattice vertex operator algebras by an automorphism of order 3, which is a lift of a fixed-point-free isometry of the underlying lattice. We classify the irreducible modules for the…

We study the properties of shifted vertex operator algebras, which are vertex algebras derived from a given theory by shifting the conformal vector. In this way, we are able to exhibit large numbers of vertex operator algebras which are…

On finite dimensional spaces, it is apparent that an operator is the product of two positive operators if and only if it is similar to a positive operator. Here, the class ${\mathcal L}^{+2}$ of bounded operators on separable infinite…

A well-known theorem of Paulsen says that if $\mathcal{A}$ is a unital operator algebra and $\phi:\mathcal{A}\to B(\mathcal{H})$ is a unital completely bounded homomorphism, then $\phi$ is similar to a completely contractive map $\phi'$.…

A free semigroup algebra S is the weak-operator-closed (non-self-adjoint) operator algebra generated by n isometries with pairwise orthogonal ranges. A unit vector x is said to be wandering for S if the set of images of x under…

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded open subset with $C^{1+\kappa}$-boundary for some $\kappa > 0$. Consider the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator associated to the elliptic operator $- \sum \partial_l ( c_{kl} \, \partial_k ) + V$, where the $c_{kl} =…

This note presents an analysis of a class of operator algebras constructed as cross-sectional algebras of flat holomorphic matrix bundles over a finitely bordered Riemann surface. These algebras are partly inspired by the bundle shifts of…

This paper focuses on the cohomology of operator algebras associated with the free semigroup generated by the set $\{z_{\alpha}\}_{\alpha\in\Lambda}$, with the left regular free semigroup algebra $\mathfrak{L}_{\Lambda}$ and the…

We investigate the general structure of the automorphism group and the Lie algebra of derivations of a finitely generated vertex operator algebra. The automorphism group is isomorphic to an algebraic group. Under natural assumptions, the…

We consider the Fr\'echet ${}^*$-algebra $L(s',s)$ of the so-called smooth operators, i.e. continuous linear operators from the dual $s'$ of the space $s$ of rapidly decreasing sequences into $s$. This algebra is a non-commutative analogue…

In this dissertation I establish that a broad class of Banach *-algebras of infinite integral operators, defined by the property that the kernels of the elements of the algebras possess subexponential off-diagonal decay, is inverse closed…

Let $G$ be a finite group. There is a standard theorem on the classification of $G$-equivariant finite dimensional simple commutative, associative, and Lie algebras (i.e., simple algebras of these types in the category of representations of…

We investigate some new classes of operator algebras which we call semi-$\sigma$-finite subdiagonal and Riesz approximable. These constitute the most general setting to date for a noncommutative Hardy space theory based on Arveson's…

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…

A general notion of a quasi-finite algebra is introduced as an algebra graded by the set of all integers equipped with topologies on the homogeneous subspaces satisfying certain properties. An analogue of the regular bimodule is introduced…

The operator algebra is introduced based on the framework of logarithmic representation of infinitesimal generators. In conclusion a set of generally-unbounded infinitesimal generators is characterized as a module over the Banach algebra.

In this paper we study a series of vertex operator algebras of integer level associated to the affine Lie algebra $A_{\ell}^{(1)}$. These vertex operator algebras are constructed by using the explicit construction of certain singular…
