We show that for a C*-algebra A and a discrete group G with an action of G on A, the reduced crossed product C*-algebra possesses a natural generalization of the convolution product, which we suggest should be named the Hadamard product. We…

A completely positive linear map $\varphi$ from a C*-algebra $A$ into $B(H)$ has a Stinespring representation as $\varphi(a) = X^*\pi(a)X,$ where $\pi$ is a *-representation of $A$ on a Hilbert space $K$ and $X$ is a bounded operator from…

Grothendieck's inequalities for operators and bilinear forms imply some factorization results for complex m x n matrices. Based on the theory of operator spaces and completely bounded mappings we present norm optimal versions of these…

The notion of completely positive invariant conjugate-bilinear map in a partial *-algebra is introduced and a generalized Stinespring theorem is proven. Applications to the existence of integrable extensions of *-representations of…

Given two m x n matrices A = (a_{ij}) and B=(b_{ij}) with entries in B(H), the Schur block product is the m x n matrix A \square B := (a_{ij}b_{ij}). There exists an m x n contraction matrix S = (s_{ij}), such that A \square B =…

For a $C^*$-algebra $A$ and a set $X$ we give a Stinespring-type characterisation of the completely positive Schur $A$-multipliers on $K(\ell^2(X))\otimes A$. We then relate them to completely positive Herz-Schur multipliers on…

For a self-adjoint unbounded operator D on a Hilbert space H, a bounded operator y on H and some complex Borel functions g(t) we establish inequalities of the type ||[g(D),y]|| \leq A|||y|| + B||[D,y]|| + ...+ X|[D, [D,...[D, y]...]]||. The…

W. Paschke's version of Stinespring's theorem associates a Hilbert $C^*$-module along with a generating vector to every completely positive map. Building on this, to every quantum dynamical semigroup (QDS) on a $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal A$…

In this paper, we characterize the multiple operator integrals mappings which are bounded on the Haagerup tensor product of spaces of compact operators. We show that such maps are automatically completely bounded and prove that this is…

Let $X$ be an operator space, let $\phi$ be a product on $X$, and let $(X,\phi)$ denote the algebra that one obtains. We give necessary and sufficient conditions on the bilinear mapping $\phi$ for the algebra $(X,\phi)$ to have a completely…

Given Hilbert spaces $H_1,H_2,H_3$, we consider bilinear maps defined on the cartesian product $S^2(H_2,H_3)\times S^2(H_1,H_2)$ of spaces of Hilbert-Schmidt operators and valued in either the space $B(H_1,H_3)$ of bounded operators, or in…

Given a pair of self-adjoint-preserving completely bounded maps on the same $C^*$-algebra, say that $\varphi \leq \psi$ if the kernel of $\varphi$ is a subset of the kernel of $\psi$ and $\psi \circ \varphi^{-1}$ is completely positive. The…

We introduce multidimensional Schur multipliers and characterise them generalising well known results by Grothendieck and Peller. We define a multidimensional version of the two dimensional operator multipliers studied recently by Kissin…

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…

In this paper, we prove that if $\mathcal{A}$ is a unital separable $C^*$-algebra, $\mathcal{M}$ is a von Neumann algebra which has the Kirchberg's quotient weak expectation property (QWEP), and $\phi:\, \mathcal{A}\rightarrow \mathcal{M}$…

We prove several versions of Grothendieck's Theorem for completely bounded linear maps $T\colon E \to F^*$, when E and F are operator spaces. We prove that if E,F are $C^*$-algebras, of which at least one is exact, then every completely…

We show how the proof of the Grothendieck Theorem for jointly completely bounded bilinear forms on C*-algebras by Haagerup and Musat can be modified in such a way that the method of proof is essentially C*-algebraic. To this purpose, we use…

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a C*-algebra and $\alpha:\mathcal{C} \rightarrow \mathcal{C}$ a unital *-endomorphism. There is a natural way to construct operator algebras which are called semicrossed products, using a convolution induced by the…

Suppose $A=[a_{ij}]\in \mathcal{M}_n(\mathbb{C})$ is a complex $n \times n$ matrix and $B\in \mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})$ is a bounded linear operator on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. We show that $w(A\otimes B)\leq w(C),$ where…
