In the first part of the paper, we use states on $C^*$-algebras in order to establish some equivalent statements to equality in the triangle inequality, as well as to the parallelogram identity for elements of a pre-Hilbert $C^*$-module. We…
We consider pairs of operators $A,B\in B(H)$, where $H$ is a Hilbert space, such that there exist a linear isometry $f$ from the span of $\{A,B\}$ into $\mathbb{C}^2$ mapping $A,B$ into orthonormal vectors. We prove some necessary…
By computing the completely bounded norm of the flip map on the Haagerup tensor product $C_0 Y_1\otimes_{C_0 X} C_0 Y_2$ associated to a pair of continuous mappings of locally compact Hausdorff spaces $Y_1\rightarrow X\leftarrow Y_2$, we…
From the mid-1970s, Eberhard Kirchberg undertook a remarkable extensive study of $C^*$-algebras exactness whose applications spread out to many branches of analysis. In this review we focus on the case of groupoid $C^*$-algebras for which…
Motivated by the decidability question for the theory of real exponentiation and by the Transfer Conjecture for o-minimal exponential fields, we show that, under the assumption of Schanuel's Conjecture, the prime model of real…
We introduce a new class of operator algebras -- tracially complete C*-algebras -- as a vehicle for transferring ideas and results between C*-algebras and their tracial von Neumann algebra completions. We obtain structure and classification…
Given a separable unital C*algebra $C$, let $E_n$ denote the Hilbert module equal to the completion of the Schwartz space of rapidly decreasing smooth functions from $R^n$ to $C$ equipped with the $C$-valued inner product given by…
We study in this paper the infinite-dimensional orthogonal Lie algebra $\mathcal{O}_C$ which consists of all bounded linear operators $T$ on a separable, infinite-dimensional, complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ satisfying $CTC=-T^*$, where…
We initiate and study the theory of ``real decomposable maps" between real operator systems. Formally, this is new even in the complex case, which hitherto has restricted itself to the case where the systems are complex C*-algebras. We…
Recent research has shown that the properties of overcomplete Gabor frames and frames arising from shift-invariant systems form a precise match with certain conditions that are necessary for a frame in $L^2(\mathbf R)$ to have a…
For $A$ a $C^*$-algebra, $E_1, E_2$ two Hilbert bimodules over $A$, and a fixed isomorphism $\chi : E_1\otimes_AE_2\to E_2\otimes_AE_1$, we consider the problem of computing the $K$-theory of the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra ${\mathcal…
We consider positive semidefinite kernels valued in the $*$-algebra of continuous and continuously adjointable operators on a VH-space (Vector Hilbert space in the sense of Loynes) and that are invariant under actions of $*$-semigroups. For…
We prove an orbifold conjecture for a solvable automorphism group. Namely, we show that if V is a C_2-cofinite simple vertex operator algebra and G is a finite solvable automorphism group of V, then the fixed point vertex operator…
Let $\Omega \subset {\bf R}^d$ be open. We investigate conditions under which an operator $T$ on $L_2(\Omega)$ has a continuous kernel $K \in C(\overline \Omega \times \overline \Omega)$. In the centre of our interest is the condition $T…
We study computable embeddings for pairs of structures, i.e. for classes containing precisely two non-isomorphic structures. Surprisingly, even for some pairs of simple linear orders, computable embeddings induce a non-trivial degree…
In this paper, we study {\it operator spaces\/} in the sense of the theory developed recently by Blecher-Paulsen [BP] and Effros-Ruan [ER1]. By an operator space, we mean a closed subspace $E\subset B(H)$, with $H$ Hilbert. We will be…
We first generalize the logarithmic tensor category theory of Huang-Lepowsky-Zhang to the more general case that the module category for a vertex operator algebra $V$ (more generally a M\"{o}bius vertex algebra) might not be closed under…
We study restriction and extension properties for states on C$^*$-algebras with an eye towards hyperrigidity of operator systems. We use these ideas to provide supporting evidence for Arveson's hyperrigidity conjecture. Prompted by various…
We present an optimal O*(n^2) time algorithm for deciding if a metric space (X,d) on n points can be isometrically embedded into the plane endowed with the l_1-metric. It improves the O*(n^2 log^2 n) time algorithm of J. Edmonds (2008).…
We use product systems of $C^*$-correspondences to introduce twisted $C^*$-algebras of topological higher-rank graphs. We define the notion of a continuous $\mathbb{T}$-valued $2$-cocycle on a topological higher-rank graph, and present…
