We introduce a notion of ``hereditarily antisymmetric'' operator algebras and prove a structure theorem for them in finite dimensions. We also characterize those operator algebras in finite dimensions which can be made upper triangular and…

In this article, we extend a well known result about real rank zero C* Algebras to higher real rank C* Algebras. The main technique used here is similar to the method in which we approximate continuous functions using projections. What we…

We introduce the notion of almost finite dimensionality of algebras and study its connection with the classical finiteness conditions.

We initiate and study the theory of ``real decomposable maps" between real operator systems. Formally, this is new even in the complex case, which hitherto has restricted itself to the case where the systems are complex C*-algebras. We…

Given a state on an algebra of bounded quantum-mechanical observables (the self-adjoint part of a C*-algebra), we investigate those subalgebras that are maximal with respect to the property that the given state's restriction to the…

We study locally finite varieties (=primitive classes) of linear algebras over finite fields. We do not assume that our algebras are associative or Lie. We are interested in the basic properties of finite algebras in these varieties such…

We examine situations, where representations of a finite-dimensional $F$-algebra $A$ defined over a separable extension field $K/F$, have a unique minimal field of definition. Here the base field $F$ is assumed to be a $C_1$-field. In…

The set of linear, differential operators preserving the vector space of couples of polynomials of degrees n and n-2 in one real variable leads to an abstract associative graded algebra A(2). The irreducible, finite dimensional…

A universality of deformed Heisenberg algebra involving the reflection operator is revealed. It is shown that in addition to the well-known infinite-dimensional representations related to parabosons, the algebra has also finite-dimensional…

We generalize Loewner's method for proving that matrix monotone functions are operator monotone. The relation x \leq y on bounded operators is our model for a definition for C*-relations of being residually finite dimensional. Our main…

We develop a completely bounded counterpart to the non-commutative Choquet boundary of an operator space. We show how the class of completely bounded linear maps is too large to accommodate our purposes. To overcome this obstacle, we…

In this paper, we introduce a novel generalization of the classical property of algebras known as "being alternative," which we term "partially alternative." This new concept broadens the scope of alternative algebras, offering a fresh…

In this paper we study the C*-envelope of the (non-self-adjoint) tensor algebra associated via subproduct systems to a finite irreducible stochastic matrix $P$. Firstly, we identify the boundary representations of the tensor algebra inside…

The main purpose of this paper is to investigate some natural problems regarding the order structure of representable functionals on $^*$-algebras. We describe the extreme points of order intervals, and give a nontrivial sufficient…

We show that finitely generated subhomogeneous C*-algebras have finite decomposition rank. As a consequence, any separable ASH C*-algebra can be written as an inductive limit of subhomogeneous C*-algebras each of which has finite…

We use C*-algebra theory to provide a new method of decomposing the eseential spectra of self-adjoint and non-self-adjoint Schrodinger operators in one or more space dimensions.

We write arbitrary separable nuclear C*-algebras as limits of inductive systems of finite-dimensional C*-algebras with completely positive connecting maps. The characteristic feature of such CPC*-systems is that the maps become more and…

We show that group C*-algebras of finitely generated, nilpotent groups have finite nuclear dimension. It then follows, from a string of deep results, that the C*-algebra $A$ generated by an irreducible representation of such a group has…

We study operator algebras associated to integral domains. In particular, with respect to a set of natural identities we look at the possible nonselfadjoint operator algebras which encode the ring structure of an integral domain. We show…

We give a new very concrete description of the C*-envelope of the tensor algebra associated to multivariable dynamical system. In the surjective case, this C*-envelope is described as a crossed product by an endomorphism, and as a groupoid…
