We introduce and study weak-2-local symmetric maps between C$^*$-algebras $A$ and $B$ as non necessarily linear nor continuous maps $\Delta: A\to B$ such that for each $a,b\in A$ and $\phi\in B^{*}$, there exists a symmetric linear map…

An n-homomorphism between algebras is a linear map $\phi : A \to B$ such that $\phi(a_1 ... a_n) = \phi(a_1)... \phi(a_n)$ for all elements $a_1, >..., a_n \in A.$ Every homomorphism is an n-homomorphism, for all n >= 2, but the converse is…

Let A be a C*-algebra and d from A into A** be a continuous linear map. We assume that d acts like derivation or anti-derivation at orthogonal elements for several types of orthogonality conditions such as ab=0, ab*=0, ab=ba=0 and…

We study bounded bilinear maps on a C$^*$-algebra $A$ having product property at $c\in A$. This leads us to the question of when a C$^*$-algebra is determined by products at $c.$ In the first part of our paper, we investigate this question…

Let $\xi:C^*(E)\to C^*(F)$ be a unital $*$-homomorphism between simple purely infinite Cuntz-Krieger algebras of finite graphs. We prove that there exists a unital $*$-homomorphism $\phi:L(E)\to L(F)$ between the corresponding Leavitt…

We classify $^*$-homomorphisms from nuclear $C^*$-algebras into uniform tracial sequence algebras of nuclear $\mathcal Z$-stable $C^*$-algebras via tracial data.

We prove that a unital completely positive map between finite-dimensional C*-algebras is a homomorphism if and only if it is completely entropy-nonincreasing, where the relevant notion of entropy is a variant of von Neumann entropy. This…

We characterise when the Leavitt path algebras over $\mathbb{Z}$ of two arbitrary countable directed graphs are $*$-isomorphic by showing that two Leavitt path algebras over $\mathbb{Z}$ are $*$-isomorphic if and only if the corresponding…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ be two factor von Neumann algebras and $\eta$ be a non-zero complex number. A nonlinear bijective map $\phi:\mathcal A\rightarrow\mathcal B$ has been demonstrated to satisfy…

We give a structural characterisation of linear operators from one $C^\ast$% -algebra into another whose adjoints map extreme points of the dual ball onto extreme points. We show that up to a $\ast$-isomorphism, such a map admits of a…

We study maps between positive definite or positive semidefinite cones of unital $C^*$-algebras. We describe surjective maps that preserve (1) the norm of the quotient or multiplication of elements; (2) the spectrum of the quotient or…

We introduce and study a notion of pureness for *-homomorphisms and, more generally, for cpc. order-zero maps. After providing several examples of pureness, such as "$\mathcal{Z}$-stable"-like maps, we focus on the question of when pure…

There exists a generalization of the concept, completely bounded norm for multilinear maps on C*-algebras. We will use the word, Jordan norm, for this norm. The Jordan norm of a multilinear map is obtained via factorizations of the map,…

Let $\Omega$ be a compact subset of $\mathbb{C}$ and let $A$ be a unital simple, separable $C^*$-algebra with stable rank one, real rank zero and strict comparison. We show that, given a Cu-morphism $\alpha:{\rm Cu}(C(\Omega))\to {\rm…

In this paper, we prove that unital homomorphisms from continuous functions on a compact metric space to matrices over a C*-algebra with tracial rank at most one are approximately diagonalizable. We also consider some generalizations of…

Let $\mathfrak{A}$ and $\mathfrak{A}'$ be two $C^*$-algebras with identities $I_{\mathfrak{A}}$ and $I_{\mathfrak{A}'}$, respectively, and $P_1$ and $P_2 = I_{\mathfrak{A}} - P_1$ nontrivial projections in $\mathfrak{A}$. In this paper we…

Let $A$ and $B$ be commutative algebras and $n\geqslant 2$ an integer. Then each $n-$ Jordan homomorphism $h:A\rightarrow B$ is an $n-$homomorphism.

Let $X$ be a finite CW complex and let $h_1, h_2: C(X)\to A$ be two unital \hm s, where $A$ is a unital C*-algebra. We study the problem when $h_1$ and $h_2$ are approximately homotopic. We present a $K$-theoretical necessary and sufficient…

A C*-metric algebra consists of a unital C*-algebra and a Leibniz Lip-norm on the C*-algebra. We show that if the Lip-norms concerned are lower semicontinuous, then any unital *-homomorphism from a C*-metric algebra to another one is…

The purpose of this short note is to prove that if $A$ and $B$ are unital C*-algebras and $\phi : A \to B$ is a unital *-preserving ring homomorphism, then $\phi$ is contractive; i.e., $\| \phi (a) \| \leq \| a \|$ for all $a \in A$. (Note…
