In this survey paper we study parametric versions of writing a matrix in $SL_n (\mathbb{C})$ as a product of lower and upper unitriangular matrices in interchanging order as well as generalizations to other classical groups. We give an…

We investigate C^*-algebras generated by scaling elements. We generalize the Wold decomposition and Coburn's theorem on isometries to scaling elements. We also completely determine when the C^*-algebra generated by a scaling element…

We show that every logmodular subalgebra of $M_n(\mathbb{C})$ is unitary equivalent to an algebra of block upper triangular matrices, which was conjectured in \cite{VM}. In particular, this shows that every unital contractive representation…

We prove some results about closures of certain matrix varieties consisting of elements with the same centralizer dimension. This generalizes a result of Dixmier and has applications to topological generation of simple algebraic groups.

We describe the representation theory of C*-crossed-products of a unital C*-algebra A by the cyclic group of order 2. We prove that there are two main types of irreducible representations for the crossed-product: those whose restriction to…

We provide some background on the category of classifiable $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras, whose objects are infinite-dimensional, simple, separable, unital $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras that have finite nuclear dimension and satisfy the universal…

In this paper, we study closed convex hulls of unitary orbits in various C$^*$-algebras. For unital C$^*$-algebras with real rank zero and a faithful tracial state determining equivalence of projections, a notion of majorization describes…

Let $\mathscr{R}$ denote the ring of real polynomials on $\mathbb{R}^{n}$. Fix $m\geq 0$, and let $A_{1},\cdots ,A_{M}\in \mathscr{R}$. The $ C^{m}$-closure of $\left( A_{1},\cdots ,A_{M}\right) $, denoted here by $ \left[ A_{1},\cdots…

In this paper we prove that every recursively presented Lie algebra over a field which is a finite extention of its simple subfield can be embedded in a recursively presented Lie algebra defined by relations which are equalities of…

The study of open quantum systems relies on the notion of unital completely positive semigroups on $C^*$-algebras representing physical systems. The natural generalisation would be to consider the unital completely positive semigroups on…

We initiate the study of computable presentations of real and complex C*-algebras under the program of effective metric structure theory. With the group situation as a model, we develop corresponding notions of recursive presentations and…

The purpose of this work is to analyse a family of mutually orthogonal polynomials on the unit ball with respect to an inner product which includes an additional term on the sphere. First, we will get connection formulas relating classical…

We compute the K-theory of ring C*-algebras for polynomial rings over finite fields. The key ingredient is a duality theorem which we had obtained in a previous paper. It allows us to show that the K-theory of these algebras has a ring…

Although it is well-known that the complex cobordism ring is a polynomial ring $\Omega_{*}^{U}\cong\mathbb{Z}\left[\alpha_{1},\alpha_{2},\ldots\right]$, an explicit description for convenient generators $\alpha_{1},\alpha_{2},\ldots$ has…

We consider certain positive definite functions on a finitely generated free group G that are defined with respect to a given basis in terms of word length and the number of negative-to-positive generator exponent switches. Some of these…

Multiplicative Unitaries are described in terms of a pair of commuting shifts of relative depth two. They can be generated from ambidextrous Hilbert spaces in a tensor C*-category. The algebraic analogue of the Takesaki-Tatsuuma Duality…

Let $C^*(\cls)$ be the $C^*$ algebra generated by an operator system $\cls$ i.e. a unital $*$-closed subspace of a unital $C^*$ algebra $\cla$. We prove that any complete order isomorphism $\cli:\cls \raro \cls'$ between two such operator…

We investigate free products of finite dimensional $C^*$-algebras with amalgamation over diagonal subalgebras. We look to determine under what circumstances a given free product is exact and/or nuclear. In some cases we find a description…

The universal C*-algebra generated by n projections has been described. As an immediate corollary one obtains structure theorem for a pair of projections and the solution to an associated index problem. This puts the study of a pair of…

The main result of the paper is the construction of explicit uniformly bounded basis in the spaces of complex homogenous polynomials on the unit ball of $C^3$, extending an earlier result of the author in the $C^2$ case
