In this paper we describe all surjective isometries between open subgroups of the groups of invertible elements in unital $C^{*}$-algebras.
Gelfand-Naimark duality (Commutative $C^*$-algebras $\equiv$ Locally compact Hausdorff spaces) is extended to $C^*$-algebras $\equiv$ Quotient maps on locally compact Hausdorff spaces. Using this duality, we give for an \emph{arbitrary}…
We construct two superalgebras associated to a punctured Riemann surface. One of them is a Lie superalgebra of Krichever-Novikov type, the other one is a Jordan superalgebra. The constructed algebras are related in several ways (algebraic,…
Surface states are open string field configurations which arise from Riemann surfaces with a boundary and form a subalgebra of the star algebra. We find that a general class of star algebra projectors arise from surface states where the…
We give a structural characterisation of linear operators from one $C^\ast$% -algebra into another whose adjoints map extreme points of the dual ball onto extreme points. We show that up to a $\ast$-isomorphism, such a map admits of a…
We prove that if A is an infinite von Neumann algebra (i. e., the identity can be decomposed as a sum of a sequence of pairwise disjoint projections, all equivalent to the identity) then the cyclic cohomology of A vanishes. We show that the…
Let $K$ be a compact metric space and let $\varphi: K \to K$ be continuous. We study C*-algebra $\mathcal{MC}_\varphi$ generated by all multiplication operators by continuous functions on $K$ and a composition operator $C_\varphi$ induced…
We describe a method for associating a $C^{*}$-correspondence to a Mauldin-Williams graph and show that the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra of this $C^{*}$-correspondence is isomorphic to the $C^{*}$-algebra of the underlying graph. In addition, we…
We give a fresh account of the astonishing interplay between abelian von Neumann algebras, L^\infty-spaces and measure algebras, including an exposition of Maharam's theorem from the von Neumann algebra perspective.
We give a proof of the openness conjecture of Demailly and Koll\'ar for positively curved singular metrics on ample line bundles over projective varieties. As a corollary it follows that the openness conjecture for plurisubharmonic…
We formalize the quantum arithmetic, i.e. a relationship between number theory and operator algebras. Namely, it is proved that rational projective varieties are dual to the $C^*$-algebras with real multiplication. Our construction fits all…
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…
We connect generalizations of Poisson algebras with the classical and associative Yang-Baxter equations. In particular, we prove that solutions of the classical Yang-Baxter equation on a vector space V are equivalent to ``twisted'' Poisson…
We prove that a unital completely positive map between finite-dimensional C*-algebras is a homomorphism if and only if it is completely entropy-nonincreasing, where the relevant notion of entropy is a variant of von Neumann entropy. This…
We study bounded bilinear maps on a C$^*$-algebra $A$ having product property at $c\in A$. This leads us to the question of when a C$^*$-algebra is determined by products at $c.$ In the first part of our paper, we investigate this question…
C*-algebras form rather general and rich mathematical structures that can be studied with different morphisms (preserving multiplication, or not), and with different properties (commutative, or not). These various options can be used to…
Assuming that there exist operators which form an irreducible representation of the q-superoscillator algebra, it is proved that any two such representations are equivalent, related by a uniquely determined superunitary transformation. This…
We establish a computable version of Gelfand Duality. Under this computable duality, computably compact presentations of metrizable spaces uniformly effectively correspond to computable presentations of unital commutative $C^*$ algebras.
In this paper, we prove that Gorenstein projective conjecture is left and right symmetric and the co-homology vanishing condition can not be reduced in general. Moreover, the Gorenstein projective conjecture is proved to be true for…
The similarity problem is one of the most famous open problems in the theory of $C^*$-algebras. We say that a $C^*$-algebra $\cl A$ satisfies the similarity property ((SP) for short) if every bounded homomorphism $u\colon \cl A\to \cl B(H)$…
