We give characterizations of unital uniform topological algebras and saturated locally multiplicatively convex algebras by means of multiplicative linear functionals. Some automatic continuity theorems in advertibly complete uniform…

A notion of unique ergodicity relative to the fixed-point subalgebra is defined for automorphisms of unital C*-algebras. It is proved that the free shift on any reduced amalgamated free product C*-algebra is uniquely ergodic relative to its…

We compare two known methods of extending a complex, unital, commutative normed algebra so as to include solutions to sets of monic polynomials over the original algebra. (One of these is a generalisation of a construction from the thesis…

This short note refines nc Oka-Weil theorem by using a characterization of free compact nc sets based on the notion of dilation hulls. A consequence of it is that any free holomorphic function can be represented as a free polynomial on each…

A proof using the theory of completely positive maps is given to the fact that if $A \in M_2$, or $A \in M_3$ has a reducing eigenvalue, then every bounded linear operator $B$ with $W(B) \subseteq W(A)$ has a dilation of the form $I \otimes…

Bundles of C*-algebras can be used to represent limits of physical theories whose algebraic structure depends on the value of a parameter. The primary example is the $\hbar\to 0$ limit of the C*-algebras of physical quantities in quantum…

We investigate the deformation of involution and multiplication in a unital $C^*$-algebra when its norm is fixed. Our main result is to present all multiplications and involutions on a given $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal{A}$ under which…

The paper presents a construction of the crossed product of a C*-algebra by a commutative semigroup of bounded positive linear maps generated by partial isometries. In particular, it generalizes Antonevich, Bakhtin, Lebedev's crossed…

Motivated by Cuntz-Krieger-Toeplitz systems associated to undirected graphs and representations of groupoids, we obtain a generalisation of the Sz-Nagy's Dilation Theorem for operator valued partially positive semidefinite maps on…

For any reduced amalgamated free product $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebra $(A,E)=(A_1, E_1) \ast_D (A_2,E_2)$, we introduce and study a canonical ambient $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebra $\Delta\mathbf{T}(A,E)$ of $A$ which generalizes the crossed product…

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…

Let $A$ be a $C^*$-algebra acting on a Hilbert space $H$, $\sigma:A\to B(H)$ be a linear mapping and $d:A\to B(H)$ be a $\sigma$-derivation. Generalizing the celebrated theorem of Sakai, we prove that if $\sigma$ is a continuous $*$-mapping…

In this paper, we give a study of the $\mathbb{C}[\partial]$-split extending structures problem for associative conformal algebras. Using the unified product as a tool, which includes interesting products such as bicrossed product, cocycle…

We pose a conjecture on the K-theory of the self-similar $k$-graph C*-algebra of a standard product of odometers. We generalize the C*-algebra $\mathcal{Q}_S$ to any subset of $\mathbb{N}^\times \setminus \{1\}$ and then realize it as the…

This paper characterizes the unital C*-algebra generated by a single invertible element as the unital free product of C[0,1] and C(T). To do this, I develop techniques to split and merge presentations of C*-algebras using free products in…

We define and investigate properties of universal operator algebras of directed graphs. Results include free products decomposition and continuity of the construction with respect to direct limits. Lastly we prove some K-theoretic results…

We prove unit-free versions of both the associative and the non-associative Vidav-Palmer theorems. Then these results are applied to prove a unit-free version of the Blecher-Ruan-Sinclair non-associative characterization of unital…

Let X be a product system over a quasi-lattice ordered group. Under mild hypotheses, we associate to X a C*-algebra which is co-universal for injective Nica covariant Toeplitz representations of X which preserve the gauge coaction. Under…

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…

We prove a reduction theorem for capacity of positive maps of finite dimensional C*-algebras, thus reducing the computation of capacity to the case when the image of a nonscalar projection is never a projection.
