Certain $*$-semigroups are associated with the universal $C^*$-algebra generated by a partial isometry, which is itself the universal $C^*$-algebra of a $*$-semigroup. A fundamental role for a $*$-structure on a semigroup is emphasized, and…
The local converse theorem for Rankin-Selberg gamma factors of $\mathrm{GL}_2(\mathbb{F}_q)$ proved by Piatetski-Shapiro over $\mathbb{C}$ no longer holds after reduction modulo $\ell \neq p$. To remedy this, we construct new $\mathrm{GL}_n…
A characterization of the general linear equation in standard form admitting a maximal symmetry algebra is obtained in terms of a simple set of conditions relating the coefficients of the equation. As a consequence, it is shown that in its…
The Generalized Central Limit Theorem is a remarkable generalization of the Central Limit Theorem, showing that the sum of a large number of independent, identically-distributed (i.i.d) random variables with infinite variance may converge…
Given an irreducible lattice $\Gamma$ in the product of higher rank simple Lie groups, we prove a co-finiteness result for the $\Gamma$-invariant von Neumann subalgebras of the group von Neumann algebra $\mathcal{L}(\Gamma)$, and for the…
We consider two categories of C*-algebras; in the first, the isomorphisms are ordinary isomorphisms, and in the second, the isomorphisms are Morita equivalences. We show how these two categories, and categories of dynamical systems based on…
In this paper we consider shift operators, self-adjoint, unitary and normal operators on the standard module over a unital C*-algebra A. We define various generalized spectra in A of these operators, give description of such spectra of…
This paper contains a quite detailed description of the C*-algebra arising from the transformation groupoid of a rational map of degree at least two on the Riemann sphere. The algebra is decomposed stepwise via extensions of familiar…
For every moderate growth representation of a real Lie group G on a Frechet space E, we prove a factorization theorem of Dixmier--Malliavin type for the space of analytic vectors E^{\omega}. There exists a natural algebra of…
We show that certain factor rings of the group algebra of a symmetric group have natural bases of group elements. We also give generators for the annihilator of certain permutation modules for symmetric groups.
The uncovering of new structure on the Cuntz semigroup of a C*-algebra of stable rank one leads to several applications: We answer affirmatively, for the class of stable rank one C*-algebras, a conjecture by Blackadar and Handelman on…
We introduce P-graphs, which are generalisations of directed graphs in which paths have a degree in a semigroup P rather than a length in N. We focus on semigroups P arising as part of a quasi-lattice ordered group (G,P) in the sense of…
To a directed graph $E$ is associated a $C^*$-algebra $C^* (E)$ called a graph $C^*$-algebra. There is a canonical action $\gamma$ of ${\bf T}$ on $C^* (E)$, called the gauge action. In this paper we present necessary and sufficient…
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…
We study the von Neumann algebra generated by q--deformed Gaussian elements l_i+l_i^* where operators l_i fulfill the q--deformed canonical commutation relations l_i l_j^*-q l_j^* l_i=delta_{ij} for -1<q<1. We show that if the number of…
For a field $F$ of characteristic not 2 and a directed row-finite graph $\Gamma$ let $L(\Gamma)$ be the Leavitt path algebra with the standard involution $*.$ We study the Lie algebra $K=K(L(\Gamma),*)$ of $*-$skew-symmetric elements and…
Let $G=C_{p^n}$ be a finite cyclic p-group, and let $Hol(G)$ denote its holomorph. In this work, we find and characterize the regular subgroups of $Hol(G)$ that are mutually normalizing each other in the permutation group $Sym(G)$. We…
We find an expression for Gateaux derivative of the $C^*$-algebra norm. This gives us alternative proofs or generalizations of various known results on the closely related notions of subdifferential sets, smooth points and Birkhoff-James…
Non-standard quantum groups $C_R [GL(n)]$ and $C_R [SL(n)]$ are constructed for a two parameter version of the Cremmer-Gervais $R$-matrix. An epimorphism is constructed from $C_R [GL(n)]$ onto the restricted dual…
We consider a locally compact Hausdorff groupoid $G$, and twist by a more general locally compact Hausdorff abelian group $\Gamma$ rather than the complex unit circle $\mathbb{T}$. We investigate the construction of $C^*$-algebras in…
