We show that a $C^*$-algebra $A$ is nuclear iff there is a constant $K$ and $\alpha<3$ such that, for any bounded homomorphism $u\colon A \to B(H)$, there is an isomorphism $\xi\colon H\to H$ satisfying $\|\xi^{-1}\|\|\xi\| \le…

Let $A$ and $C$ be two unital simple C*-algebas with tracial rank zero. Suppose that $C$ is amenable and satisfies the Universal Coefficient Theorem. Denote by ${{KK}}_e(C,A)^{++}$ the set of those $\kappa$ for which…

We show that each Jordan homomorphism $R\to R'$ of rings gives rise to a harmonic mapping of one connected component of the projective line over $R$ into the projective line over $R'$. If there is more than one connected component then this…

It is proved that every separable $C^*$-algebra of real rank zero contains an AF-sub-$C^*$-algebra such that the inclusion mapping induces an isomorphism of the ideal lattices of the two $C^*$-algebras and such that every projection in a…

A linear map $\phi:{\mathcal A}\to {\mathcal B} $ between (Banach) algebras is called 3-homomorphism if $\phi(abc)=\phi(a)\phi(b)\phi(c)$ for each $a, b, c \in {\mathcal A}$. We investigate 3-homomorphisms on Banach algebras with bounded…

We consider the problem of identifying exactly which AF-algebras are isomorphic to a graph C*-algebra. We prove that any separable, unital, Type I C*-algebra with finitely many ideals is isomorphic to a graph C*-algebra. This result allows…

By using a variation of a theorem on $n$-Jordan homomorphisms due to Herstein, we deduce the following G. An's result: Let $ A $ and $ B $ be two rings where $ A $ has a unit and $ char(B)> n. $ If every Jordan homomorphism from $ A $ into…

This paper is, in a first stage, devoted to establish a topological--algebraic characterization of the principal component, $\mathcal{U}^0 (M)$, of the set of unitary elements, $\mathcal{U} (M)$, in a unital JB$^*$-algebra $M$. We arrive to…

Consider a unital C*-algebra A, a von Neumann algebra M, a unital sub-C*-algebra C of A and a unital *-homomorphism $\pi$ from C to M. Let u: A --> M be a decomposable map (i.e. a linear combination of completely positive maps) which is a…

In this paper, we investigate Jordan *-homomorphisms on $C^*$-algebras associated with the following functional inequality $\|f(\frac{b-a}{3})+f(\frac{a-3c}{3})+f(\frac{3a+3c-b}{3})\| \leq \|f(a)\|.$ We moreover prove the superstability and…

We discuss when a unital homomorphism {\phi} : C(X) \rightarrow A can be approximated by finite-dimensional homomorphisms, where X is a compact metric space and A is unital simple C*-algebra with tracial rank one. In this paper, we will…

We provide a complete description of the order isomorphisms between the self-adjoint parts of $C^*$-algebras. Furthermore, we characterize such isomorphisms between general operator intervals in $AW^*$-algebras. For the description, we use…

We define a tracial analogue of the sequentially split $*$-homomorphism between $C^*$-algebras of Barlak and Szab\'{o} and show that several important approximation properties related to the classification theory of $C^*$-algebras pass from…

In this paper an automorphism of a unital C*-algebra is said to be /locally inner/ if on any element it agrees with some inner automorphism. We make a fairly complete study of local innerness in von Neumann algebras, incorporating…

A C*-algebra is n-homogeneous (where n is finite) if every its nonzero irreducible representation acts on an n-dimensional Hilbert space. An elementary proof of Fell's characterization of n-homogeneous C*-algebras (by means of their…

Let $A \subset C$ and $B \subset D$ be unital inclusions of unital $C^*$-algebras. Let ${}_A \mathbf{B}_A (C, A)$ (resp. ${}_B \mathbf{B}_B (D, B)$) be the space of all bounded $A$-bimodule (resp. $B$-bimodule) linear maps from $C$ (resp.…

We characterize completely bounded normal Jordan $*$-homomorphisms acting on von Neumann algebras. We also characterize completely positive isometries acting on noncommutative $\mathrm{L}^p$-spaces.

Let $A$ and $B$ be C*-algebras and $\varphi\colon A\to B$ be a $*$-homomorphism. We discuss the properties of the kernel and (co-)image of the induced map $\mathrm{K}_{0}(\varphi)\colon \mathrm{K}_{0}(A) \to \mathrm{K}_{0}(B)$ on the level…

We study the structure of certain classes of homologically trivial locally C*-algebras. These include algebras with projective irreducible Hermitian A-modules, biprojective algebras, and superbiprojective algebras. We prove that, if A is a…

Let ${\cal A}_1$ be the class of all unital separable simple $C^*$-algebras $A$ such that $A\otimes U$ has tracial rank at most one for all UHF-algebras of infinite type. It has been shown that amenable ${\cal Z}$-stable $C^*$-algebras in…
