Let A be an Artin algebra and e an idempotent in A. It is an interesting topic to compare the homological dimension of the algebras A,A/AeA and eAe. For example, in [2], the relation among the global dimension of these algebras is discussed…

P-algebras are a non-commutative, non-associative generalization of Boolean algebras that are for quantum logic what Boolean algebras are for classical logic. P-algebras have type <X, 0, ', .> where 0 is a constant, ' is unary and . is…

Let $\mathcal S$ be a semigroup of partial isometries acting on a complex, infinite-dimensional, separable Hilbert space. In this paper we seek criteria which will guarantee that the selfadjoint semigroup $\mathcal T$ generated by $\mathcal…

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…

It is shown that each positive map between matrix algebras is the sum of a maximal decomposable map and an atomic map which is both optimal and co-optimal. The result is analyzed in detail for the positive projection onto a spin factor.

Let A be a C*-algebra and A** its enveloping von Neumann algebra. C. Akemann suggested a kind of non-commutative topology in which certain projections in A** play the role of open sets. The adjectives "open", "closed", "compact", and…

Let ${\cal A}$ be a von Neumann algebra and ${\cal P}_{\cal A}$ the manifold of projections in ${\cal A}$. There is a natural linear connection in ${\cal P}_{\cal A}$, which in the finite dimensional case coincides with the the Levi-Civita…

Projection operators are central to the algebraic formulation of quantum theory because both wavefunction and hermitian operators(observables) have spectral decomposition in terms of the spectral projections. Projection operators are…

We prove some structure results for isometries between noncommutative Lp spaces associated to von Neumann algebras. We find that an isometry T: Lp(M_1) to Lp(M_2) (1 le p < infty, p not 2) can be canonically expressed in a certain simple…

Let $M$ be a type I von Neumann algebra with the center $Z,$ a faithful normal semi-finite trace $\tau.$ Let $L(M, \tau)$ be the algebra of all $\tau$-measurable operators affiliated with $M$ and let $S_0(M, \tau)$ be the subalgebra in…

Let $T$ be a self-adjoint operator on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. We give a sufficient and necessary condition for $T$ to be the pencil $\lambda P+Q$ of a pair $( P, Q)$ of projections at some point…

Recently, V.Ginzburg introduced the notion of a principal nilpotent pair (= pn-pair) in a semisimple Lie algebra {\frak g}. It is a double counterpart of the notion of a regular nilpotent element. A pair (e_1,e_2) of commuting nilpotent…

A subalgebra $\mathcal{A}$ of $\mathbb{M}_n(\mathbb{C})$ is said to be projection compressible if $P\mathcal{A}P$ is an algebra for all orthogonal projections $P\in\mathbb{M}_n(\mathbb{C})$. Likewise, $\mathcal{A}$ is said to be idempotent…

The aim of this paper is to show that there can be either only one or uncountably many contexts in any spectral effect algebra, answering a question posed in [S. Gudder, Convex and Sequential Effect Algebras, (2018), arXiv:1802.01265]. We…

We know that each effect algebra $E$ is isomorphic to $\pi(X)$ for some $E$-test spaces $(X,{\cal T})$.We describe when $\pi(x)\lor \pi(y)$ and $\pi(x)\land\pi(y)$ exists for $x,y\in{\cal E}(X,{\cal T})$. Moreover we give the formula for…

Let $E$ and $P$ be subsets of a Banach space $X$, and let us define the unit sphere around $E$ in $P$ as the set $$Sph(E;P) :=\left\{ x\in P : \|x-b\|=1 \hbox{ for all } b\in E \right\}.$$ Given a C$^*$-algebra $A$, and a subset $E\subset…

The coexistence of effects in a certain class of generalized probability theories is investigated. The effect space corresponding to an even-sided regular polygon state space has a central hyperplane that contains all the nontrivial…

To a weighted graph can be associated a bipartite graph planar algebra P. We construct and study the symmetric enveloping inclusion of P. We show that this construction is equivariant with respect to the automorphism group of P. The…

Explicit formulae for the projectors onto invariant subspaces of the $\operatorname{ad}^{\otimes 2}$ representation of the Lie algebras $so(N)$ and $sp(2r)$ have been found by means of the split Casimir operator. These projectors have also…

Effect algebras form a formal algebraic description of the structure of the so-called effects in a Hilbert space which serves as an event-state space for effects in quantum mechanics. This is why effect algebras are considered as logics of…
