Let $T\in B(H)$ be a bounded linear operator on a Hilbert space $H$, let $T = V|T|$ be its polar decomposition of $T$ and let $\lambda\in [0,1]$. The $\lambda$-Aluthge transform $\Delta_{\lambda}(T)$ and the mean transforms $M(T)$ are…

We study new classes of linear preservers between C$^*$-algebras and JB$^*$-triples. Let $E$ and $F$ be JB$^*$-triples with $\partial_{e} (E_1)$. We prove that every linear map $T:E\to F$ strongly preserving Brown-Pedersen quasi-invertible…

We prove that for all 1 \le p \le \infty, p not 2, the Lp spaces associated to two von Neumann algebras M,N are isometrically isomorphic if and only if M and N are Jordan *-isomorphic. This follows from a noncommutative Lp Banach-Stone…

We prove that if $\mathcal M$ is a properly infinite von Neumann algebra and $LS(\mathcal M)$ is the local measurable operator algebra affiliated with $\mathcal M$, then every Jordan derivation from $LS(\mathcal M)$ into itself is…

Let $M_n(\mathbb{F})$ denote the algebra of $n \times n$ matrices over an algebraically closed field $\mathbb{F}$ of characteristic different from $2$. For $n \ge 2$, we classify all maps $\phi : M_n(\mathbb{F}) \to M_n(\mathbb{F})$…

A nonpolycyclic nilpotent-by-cyclic group Gamma can be expressed as the HNN extension of a finitely-generated nilpotent group N. The first main result is that quasi-isometric nilpotent-by-cyclic groups are HNN extensions of quasi-isometric…

Let $B$ be a nilpotent matrix and suppose that its Jordan canonical form is determined by a partition $\lambda$. Then it is known that its nilpotent commutator $N_B$ is an irreducible variety and that there is a unique partition $\mu$ such…

Let ${\mathcal M}$ be a von Neumann algebra without central summands of type $I_1$ and $\xi\in{\mathbb C}$ a scalar. It is shown that an additive map $L$ on $\mathcal M$ satisfies $L(AB-\xi BA)=L(A)B-\xi BL(A)+L(B)A-\xi AL(B)$ whenever…

The article exhibits certain relations between the injective envelope I(A) of a C*-algebra A and the von Neumann algebra generated by a representation lambda of A provided it is injective. More specifically we show that there exist positive…

Let $H$ be either a complex inner product space of dimension at least two, or a real inner product space of dimension at least three. Let us fix an $\alpha\in \left(0,\tfrac{\pi}{2}\right)$. The purpose of this paper is to characterize all…

Let $M$ be a von Neumann algebra with a faithful normal finite trace $t$, and $H^\infty$ be a finite, maximal, subdiagonal of $M$. Fundamental theorems on conjugate functions for weak* Dirichlet algebras are shown to be a bounded linear map…

We prove that for a bijective, unital, linear map between absolute order unit spaces is an isometry if, and only if, it is absolute value preserving. We deduce that, on (unital) $JB$-algebras, such maps are precisely Jordan isomorphisms.…
