We assign a relational structure to any finite algebra in a canonical way, using solution sets of equations, and we prove that this relational structure is polymorphism-homogeneous if and only if the algebra itself is…

Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a von Neumann algebra with a normal semifinite faithful trace $\tau$. We prove that every continuous $m$-homogeneous polynomial $P$ from $L^p(\mathcal{M},\tau)$, with $0<p<\infty$, into each topological linear space $X$…

Let $\Hol_{x_0}^{{\bf n}} (\C\P^1, X)$ be the space of based holomorphic maps of degree ${\bf n}$ from $\C\P^1$ into a simply connected algebraic variety $X$. Under some condition we prove that the map $\map \Hol_{x_0}^{{\bf n}} (\C\P^1,…

Homotopy is an important feature of associative and Jordan algebraic structures: such structures always come in families whose members need not be isomorphic among other, but still share many important properties. One may regard homotopy as…

In this paper, we give an explicit chain map, which induces the algebra isomorphism between the Hochschild cohomology ${\bf HH}^{\bullet}(B)$ and the $H$-invariant subalgebra ${\bf H}^{\bullet}(A, B)^{H}$ under two mild hypotheses, where…

Let $A$ and $B$ be unital complex Banach algebras having no quotients isomorphic to $\mathbb{C}$ or $M_2(\mathbb{C})$. Assume additionally that $B$ is semisimple. If a surjective additive mapping $\Phi\colon A\to B$ satisfies…

We present some properties of (not necessarily linear) positive maps between $C^*$-algebras. We first extend the notion of Lieb functions to that of Lieb positive maps between $C^*$-algebras. Then we give some basic properties and…

Let $A$ be a separable $C^*$-algebra and let $B$ be a stable $C^*$-algebra with a strictly positive element. We consider the (semi)group $\Ext^{as}(A,B)$ (resp. $\Ext(A,B)$) of homotopy classes of asymptotic (resp. of genuine) homomorphisms…

Let $X, Y$ be smooth algebraic varieties of the same dimension. Let $f, g : X \to Y$ be finite polynomial mappings. We say that $f, g$ are equivalent if there exists a regular automorphism $\Phi \in Aut(X)$ such that $f = g\circ \Phi$. Of…

Let $\phi: A\to A$ be a (not necessarily linear, additive or continuous) map of a standard operator algebra. Suppose for any $a,b\in A$ there is an algebra automorphism $\theta_{a,b}$ of $ A$ such that \begin{align*} \phi(a)\phi(b) =…

Let X be a smooth projective complex variety, of dimension 3, whose Hodge numbers h^{3,0}(X), h^{1,0}(X) both vanish. Let f: X--> X be a birational map that induces an isomorphism on (dense) open subvarieties U,V of X. Then we show that the…

We regard a right Hilbert C*-module X over a C*-algebra A endowed with an isometric *-homomorphism \phi: A\to L_A(X) as an object X_A of the C*-category of right Hilbert A-modules. Following a construction by the first author and Roberts,…

Recently, the question of whether surjective maps preserving the norm of a symmetric Kubo-Ando mean can be extended to Jordan $\ast$-isomorphisms has been tackled. The question was affirmatively answered for surjective maps between…

Let \( A_i \) be a commutative \( C^{*} \)-algebra for \( i = 1, 2 \), and denote by \( A_i^{+} \) its positive cone, consisting of all positive elements of \( A_i \). In this paper, we investigate surjective, not necessarily continuous…

We study C*-algebras generated by two partitions of unity with orthogonality relations governed by hypercubes $Q_n$ for $n \in \mathbb{N} \setminus \{0\}$. These "hypercube C*-algebras'' are special cases of bipartite graph C*-algebras…

We generalize the Serre-Swan theorem to non-commutative C$^{*}$-algebras. For a Hilbert C$^{*}$-module $X$ over a C$^{*}$-algebra ${\cal A}$, we introduce a hermitian vector bundle $\exx$ associated to $X$. We show that there is a linear…
