The Naimark problem asks whether $C^*$-algebras with singleton spectra are necessarily elementary. The separable case was solved affirmatively in 1953 by Rosenberg. In 2004, Akemann and Weaver gave a counterexample to the Naimark problem…

Given a directed graph, there exists a universal operator algebra and universal C*-algebra associated to the directed graph. In this paper we give intrinsic constructions of these objects. We provide an explicit construction for the maximal…

Let $\cal M$ be a Banach C*-module over a C*-algebra $A$ carrying two $A$-valued inner products $< .,. >_1$, $<.,. >_2$ which induce equivalent to the given one norms on $\cal M$. Then the appropriate unital C*-algebras of adjointable…

We obtain a description of the C*-algebras which can occur as a simple quotient of the C*-algebra of a locally injective surjection on a compact metric space of finite covering dimension.

Let $\lambda$ be a large enough cardinal number (assuming GCH it suffices to let $\lambda=\aleph_\omega$). If $X$ is a Banach space with $\text{dens}(X)\ge\lambda$, which admits a coarse (or uniform) embedding into any $c_0(\Gamma)$, then…

Given a separable Banach space $E$, we construct an extremely non-complex Banach space (i.e. a space satisfying that $\|Id + T^2\|=1+\|T^2\|$ for every bounded linear operator $T$ on it) whose dual contains $E^*$ as an $L$-summand. We also…

For a locally compact Hausdorff space $L$, we denote by $C_0(L,\mathbb{R})$ the Banach space of all continuous real-valued functions on $L$ vanishing at infinity equipped with the supremum norm. We prove that every surjective phase-isometry…

Any $C^*$-algebra can be regarded as a generalization of locally compact, Hausdorff topological space $\mathcal X$. From the commutative commutative Gelfand-Na\u{\i}mark theorem it follows that the spectrum of any commutative $C^*$-algebra…

Let $p\in(1,\infty)\backslash\{2\}$. We show that every homomorphism from a $C^{*}$-algebra $\mathcal{A}$ into $B(l^{p}(J))$ satisfies a compactness property where $J$ is any set. As a consequence, we show that a $C^{*}$-algebra…

We investigate the problem of classifying the Banach spaces $\mathrm{Lip}_0(C(K))$ for Hausdorff compacta $K$. In particular, sufficient conditions are established for a space $\mathrm{Lip}_0(C(K))$ to be isomorphic to…

The following topics are presented in these notes: Elements of Banach algebras, Banach algebras of the form $L^1(G)$, where $G$ is a locally compact group, spectrum of elements of Banach algebras, the spectral theory of compact operators on…

Let $\Omega$ be a locally compact Hausdorff space. We show that any local $\mathbb{C}$-linear map (where "local" is a weaker notion than $C_0(\Omega)$-linearity) between Banach $C_0(\Omega)$-modules are "nearly $C_0(\Omega)$-linear" and…

It has been a longstanding problem whether every amenable operator algebra is isomorphic to a (necessarily nuclear) C*-algebra. In this note, we give a nonseparable counterexample. The existence of a separable counterexample remains an open…

Given a compact metric space X and a unital C*-algebra A, we introduce a family of seminorms on the C*-algebra of continuous functions from X to A, denoted C(X, A), induced by classical Lipschitz seminorms that produce compact quantum…

In this paper, we study the notion of a separability idempotent in the C*-algebra framework. This is analogous to the notion in the purely algebraic setting, typically considered in the case of (finite-dimensional) algebras with identity,…

It is shown that every nonsingular continuous representation of the group algebra $L^{1}(G)$ in Banach spaces is completely reducible if and only if $G$ is a compact group.

We show that for a large class of C*-algebras $\mathcal{A}$, containing arbitrary direct limits of separable type I C*-algebras, the following statement holds: If $A\in \mathcal{A}$ and $B$ is a simple projectionless C*-algebra with trivial…

We study the range of a classifiable class ${\cal A}$ of unital separable simple amenable $C^*$-algebras which satisfy the Universal Coefficient Theorem. The class ${\cal A}$ contains all unital simple AH-algebras. We show that all unital…

The diadic $C^*$-algebra $\cQ_2$ contains canonically a copy of the Cuntz algebra $\cO_2$. It is shown that the inclusion $\cO_2 \subset \cQ_2$ is $C^*$-irreducible and rigid. It follows that the injective envelopes of these two…

Denote by $[0,\omega_1)$ the set of countable ordinals, equipped with the order topology, let $L_0$ be the disjoint union of the compact ordinal intervals $[0,\alpha]$ for $\alpha$ countable, and consider the Banach spaces $C_0[0,\omega_1)$…
