We introduce a notion of a uniform structure on the set of all representations of a given separable, not necessarilly commutative $C^*$-algebra $\mathfrak{A}$ by introducing a suitable family of metrics on the set of representations of…

We say a completely positive contractive map between two C*-algebras has order zero, if it sends orthogonal elements to orthogonal elements. We prove a structure theorem for such maps. As a consequence, order zero maps are in one-to-one…

Let $H$ be a finite-dimensional Hilbert space, $\dim H \ge 2$. We prove that every continuous coexistency preserving map on the effect algebra $E(H)$ is either a standard automorphism of $E(H)$, or a standard automorphism of $E(H)$ composed…

We prove various results connecting structural or algebraic properties of graphs and groups to conditions on their spaces of harmonic functions. In particular: we show that a group with a finitely supported symmetric measure has a…

We study a family of C*-algebras generalizing both Katsura algebras and certain algebras introduced by Nekrashevych in terms of self-similar groups.

In this study, it is proven that the universal equivalence of general linear groups (admitting the inverse-transpose automorphism) of orders greater than $2$, over local, not necessarily commutative rings with $1/2$, is equivalent to the…

We give a brief survey of recent results on word maps on simple groups and polynomial maps on simple associative and Lie algebras. Our focus is on parallelism between these theories, allowing one to state many new open problems and giving…

We examine rigidity phenomena for representations of amenable operator algebras which have an ideal of compact operators. We establish that a generalized version of Kadison's conjecture on completely bounded homomorphisms holds for the…

The notion of a regular operator with compact supports between function spaces is introduced. On that base we obtain a characterization of absolute extensors for zero-dimensional spaces in terms of regular extension operators having compact…

For actions with a dense orbit of a connected noncompact simple Lie group $G$, we obtain some global rigidity results when the actions preserve certain geometric structures. In particular, we prove that for a $G$-action to be equivalent to…

Let L^1(G) and M(G) be group algebra and measure algebra of a locally compact group G, respectively and D:L^1(G)-->M(G) be a continuous linear map. We consider D behaving like derivation or anti-derivation at orthogonal elements for several…

Let p be a prime, K a field of characteristic p, G a locally finite p-group, KG the group algebra, and V the group of the units of KG with augmentation 1. The anti-automorphism g\mapsto g^{-1} of G extends linearly to KG; this extension…

Classical algebraic structures require exact satisfaction of their defining axioms. We propose similarity algebra, a framework extending algebraic and Lie structures to settings where operations satisfy quantitative bounds up to a tolerance…

Let $H$ be an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space, $B(H)$ the $C^*$-algebra of all bounded linear operators on $H,$ $U(B(H))$ the unitary group of $B(H)$ and ${\cal K}\subset B(H)$ the ideal of compact operators. Let $G$ be a…

The calculus of classes and closure operations has proved to be a useful tool in group theory and has led to a deep theory in the study of finite soluble groups. More recently, parallel theories have started to be developed in various…

The Tate-Shafarevich set of a group G defined by Takashi Ono coincides, in the case where G is finite, with the group of outer class-preserving automorphisms of G introduced by Burnside. We consider analogues of this important…

Continuous groups of the form: $G+a_0G$ are defined, where $G$ denotes a Lie group and $a_0$ denotes an antilinear operation which fullfils the condition $a^2_0=\pm 1$. The matrix algebras connected with the groups $G+a_0G$ are defined. The…

Based on the concept and properties of $C^{*}$-algebras, the paper introduces a concept of $C_{*}$-class functions. Then by using these functions in $C^{*}$-algebra- valued modular metric spaces of moeini et al. [14], some common fixed…

We show that coincidence of the full and reduced crossed product $C^\ast$-algebras of a group action on a unital commutative $C^\ast$-algebra implies amenability of the action whenever the group is exact. This is a partial answer to a…

Given an action by a finite quantum group $\mathbb{G}$ on a von Neumann algebra $M$, we prove that a number of familiar $W^*$ properties are equivalent for $M$ and the fixed-point algebra $M^{\mathbb{G}}$ (i.e. hold or not simultaneously…
