We compute the K-theory of a collection of C*-algebras, which we refer to as boundary C*-algebras, arising as the crossed product C*-algebras of lattice actions on the maximal Furstenberg boundaries of symmetric spaces of noncompact type.…

We generalise the notion of coherent states to arbitrary Lie algebras by making an analogy with the GNS construction in $C^*$-algebras. The method is illustrated with examples of semisimple and non-semisimple finite dimensional Lie algebras…

The Ahtekar-Isham C*-algebra known from Loop Quantum Gravity is the algebra of continuous functions on the space of (generalized) connections with a compact structure Lie group. The algebra can be constructed by some inductive techniques…

In this paper, we present a captivating construction by Grothendieck, originally formulated for algebraic varieties, and adapt it to the realm of C*-algebras. Our main objective is to investigate the conditions under which this particular…

The aim of this paper is to present the construction of a general family of C*-algebras which includes, as a special case, the "quantum spacetime algebra" introduced by Doplicher, Fredenhagen and Roberts. It is based on an extension of the…

A corollary to the Reeh-Schlieder theorem is proved: that the time-ordered Vacuum Expectation Values and the S-matrix of a regularized Lagrangian quantum theory can be approximated by a local operator that uses nonlinear functionals of a…

Any $C^*$-algebra can be regarded as a generalization of locally compact, Hausdorff topological space $\mathcal X$. From the commutative commutative Gelfand-Na\u{\i}mark theorem it follows that the spectrum of any commutative $C^*$-algebra…

The paper is a brief informal introduction to C*-algebraic foundations of causal contextual subquantum theories. In particular, it is explained how the contextuality property (which is a necessary consistency condition of all causal…

For decades, a lot of work has been devoted to the problem of constructing a non-trivial quantum field theory in four-dimensional space time. This letter addresses the attempts to construct an algebraic quantum field theory in the framework…

It is proved that the class of stable interatomic potentials admits an exact representation in the form of a finite or infinite superposition of Yukawa potentials. An auxiliary scalar field is introduced to describe the dynamics of a system…

To a domain with conical points \Omega, we associate a natural C*-algebra that is motivated by the study of boundary value problems on \Omega, especially using the method of layer potentials. In two dimensions, we allow \Omega to be a…

In this paper, we start the investigation of a new natural approach to "unifying" noncommutative gauge field theories (NCGFT) based on approximately finite-dimensional ($AF$) $C^*$-algebras. The defining inductive sequence of an $AF$…

Connectivity is a homotopy invariant property of separable C*-algebras which has three notable consequences: absence of nontrivial projections, quasidiagonality and a more geometric realization of KK-theory for nuclear C*-algebras using…

Haag's theorem states that if a quantum field theory is Lorentz invariant and irreducible, there is no interaction picture. But if we construct quantum field theory on a discrete lattice spacetime, its representation will be reducible and…
