We consider differential operators over a noncommutative algebra $A$ generated by vector fields. These are shown to form a unital associative algebra of differential operators, and act on $A$-modules $E$ with covariant derivative. We use…

An operator system modulo the kernel of a completely positive linear map of the operator system gives rise to an operator system quotient. In this paper, operator system quotients and quotient maps of certain matrix algebras are considered.…

In this paper, we show that the lattice of C*-covers of a non-selfadjoint operator algebra is either one point or uncountable. We prove that there are non-selfadjoint operator algebras with a one-point lattice in two ways: as an explicit…

The classical Gelfand--Naimark theorems provide important insight into the structure of general and of commutative C*-algebras. It is shown that these can be generalized to certain ordered *-algebras. More precisely, for $\sigma$-bounded…

A quasi-Hermitian operator is an operator that is similar to its adjoint in some sense, via a metric operator, i.e., a strictly positive self-adjoint operator. Whereas those metric operators are in general assumed to be bounded, we analyze…

We study non-commutative real algebraic geometry for a unital associative *-algebra A viewing the points as pairs ({\pi},v) where {\pi} is an unbounded *-representation of A on an inner product space which contains the vector v. We first…

Let $K$ be a compact metric space and let $\gamma = (\gamma_1, \dots, \gamma_n)$ be a system of proper contractions on $K$. We study a C*-algebra $\mathcal{MC}_{\gamma_1, \dots, \gamma_n}$ generated by all multiplication operators by…

We study subproduct systems in the sense of Shalit and Solel arising from stochastic matrices on countable state spaces, and their associated operator algebras. We focus on the non-self-adjoint tensor algebra, and Viselter's generalization…

Given a C*-algebra B, a closed *-subalgebra A contained in B, and a partial isometry S in B which "interacts" with A in the sense that S*aS = H(a)S*S and SaS* = V(a)SS*, where V and H are positive linear operators on A, we derive a few…

Given a unital $\boldsymbol{C}^{*}$-algebra $\mathcal{A}$, we prove the existence of the coproduct of two faithful operator $\mathcal{A}$-systems. We show that we can either consider it as a subsystem of an amalgamated free product of…

In this paper we give an example of a proper standard C*-algebra (a proper C*-subalgebra of B(H) containing C(H)) whose automorphism and isometry groups are topologically reflexive. Furthermore, we prove that in the case of extensions of…

Let V be a vertex operator algebra and g an automorphism of order T. We construct a sequence of associative algebras A_{g,n}(V) with n\in\frac{1}{T}\Z nonnegative such that A_{g,n}(V) is a quotient of A_{g,n+1/T}(V) and a pair of functors…

We prove that every bounded self-adjoint operator in Hilbert space is a real linear combination of $4$ orthoprojections. Also we show that operators of the form identity minus compact positive operator can not be decomposed in a real linear…

The conformal transformations with respect to the metric defining the orthogonal Lie algebra o(n) give rise to a one-parameter (c) family of inhomogeneous first-order differential operator representations of the orthogonal Lie algebra…

In a previous paper we showed how the main theorems characterizing operator algebras and operator modules, fit neatly into the framework of the `noncommutative Shilov boundary', and more particularly via the left multiplier operator algebra…

We examine the semicrossed products of a semigroup action by $*$-endomorphisms on a C*-algebra, or more generally of an action on an arbitrary operator algebra by completely contractive endomorphisms. The choice of allowable representations…

We introduce $p$-adic operator algebras, which are nonarchimedean analogues of $C^*$-algebras. We demonstrate that various classical examples of operator algebras - such as group(oid) $C^*$-algebras - have nonarchimedean counterparts. The…

We study non-selfadjoint representations of a finite dimensional real Lie algebra $\fg$. To this end we embed a non-selfadjoint representation of $\fg$ into a more complicated structure, that we call a $\fg$-operator vessel and that is…

We describe a method for associating a $C^{*}$-correspondence to a Mauldin-Williams graph and show that the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra of this $C^{*}$-correspondence is isomorphic to the $C^{*}$-algebra of the underlying graph. In addition, we…

The theory of multiplier modules of Hilbert C*-modules is reconsidered to obtain more properties of these special Hilbert C*-modules. The property of a Hilbert C*-module to be a multiplier C*-module is shown to be an invariant with respect…
