Let $p$ be an idempotent ultrafilter over $\mathbb{N}$. For a positive integer $N$, let ${\cal P}_{\leq N}$ denote the additive group of polynomials $P\in\mathbb{Z}[x]$ with ${\rm deg}\, P\leq N$ and $P(0)=0$. Given a unitary operator $U$…
The article establishes a long list of rigidity properties of lattices in G = SO(n,1) with n>=3 and G = SU(n,1) with n>=2 that are analogous to superrigidity of lattices in higher-rank Lie groups. The arguments are set in the context of…
Let $\phi$ be an analytic map taking the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ into itself. We establish that the class of composition operators $f \mapsto C_\phi(f) = f \circ \phi$ exhibits a rather strong rigidity of non-compact behaviour on the Hardy…
The C*-envelope of a non self-adjoint operator algebra is known to encode many properties of the underlying subalgebra. However, the C*-envelope does not always encode the residual finite-dimensionality of an operator algebra. To elucidate…
The diadic $C^*$-algebra $\cQ_2$ contains canonically a copy of the Cuntz algebra $\cO_2$. It is shown that the inclusion $\cO_2 \subset \cQ_2$ is $C^*$-irreducible and rigid. It follows that the injective envelopes of these two…
We show via an application of techniques from complex interpolation theory how the $L^p$-pseudofunction algebras of a locally compact group $G$ can be understood as sitting between $L^1(G)$ and $C^*(G)$. Motivated by this, we collect and…
In this paper we pose and answer the following question in a few different contexts: Given a homomorphism f:L_1 --> L_2 of a ``lattices'' that ``reduces mod p'' for almost all primes p, is f ``algebraic''? For instance the lattices may be…
We consider systems of elliptic equations, possibly coupled up to the second-order, on the L^p(R^d;C^m)-scale. Under suitable assumptions we prove that the minimal realization in L^p(R^d;C^m)$ generates a strongly continuous analytic…
We study existence of linear isometric embedding of $\ell_p^m$ into $S_\infty,$ for $1\leq p< \infty$ and unique operator space structure on two dimensional Banach spaces. For $p\in(2,\infty)\cup\{1\},$ we show that indeed $\ell_p^2$ does…
This note is motivated by Kirchberg's conjecture that the local lifting property (LLP) implies the lifting property (LP) for $C^*$-algebras. The author recently constructed by a "local" method an example of $C^*$-algebra with the LLP and…
We generalize the recent result of Erdo{\u g}an, Goldberg and Green on the $L^p$-boundedness of wave operators for two dimensional Schr\"odinger operators and prove that they are bounded in $L^p(\R^2)$ for all $1<p<\infty$ if and only if…
Supplying the missing necessary conditions, we complete the characterisation of the $L^p\to L^q$ boundedness of commutators $[b,T]$ of pointwise multiplication and Calder\'on-Zygmund operators, for arbitrary pairs of $1<p,q<\infty$ and…
To every one-sided shift space $\mathsf{X}$ we associate a cover $\tilde{\mathsf{X}}$, a groupoid $\mathcal{G}_{\mathsf{X}}$ and a $\mathrm{C^*}$-algebra $\mathcal{O}_{\mathsf{X}}$. We characterize one-sided conjugacy, eventual conjugacy…
In this paper we focus on algebraic aspects of contractions of Lie and Leibniz algebras. The rigidity of algebras plays an important role in the study of their varieties. The rigid algebras generate the irreducible components of this…
Given a unital $\boldsymbol{C}^{*}$-algebra $\mathcal{A}$, we prove the existence of the coproduct of two faithful operator $\mathcal{A}$-systems. We show that we can either consider it as a subsystem of an amalgamated free product of…
Motivated by the recent approach of Milman, Shabelman, and Yehudayoff \cite{MilmanShabelmanYehudayoff2025}, we establish, for $p\geq 1$, a complete characterization of the fixed points of the composition of the $L_p$-centroid operator and…
We prove that the realization $A_p$ in $L^p(\mathbb{R}^N),\,1<p<\infty$, of the Schr\"odinger type operator $A=(1+|x|^{\alpha})\Delta-|x|^{\beta}$ with domain $D(A_p)=\{u\in W^{2,p}(\mathbb{R}^N): Au\in L^p(\mathbb{R}^N)\}$ generates a…
We construct several new classes of bifunctors $(A,B)\mapsto A\otimes_{\alpha} B$, where $A\otimes_\alpha B$ is a cross norm completion of $A\odot B$ for each pair of C*-algebras $A$ and $B$. For the first class of bifunctors considered…
We prove the operator space Grothendieck inequality for bilinear forms on subspaces of noncommutative $L_p$-spaces with $2<p<\infty$. One of our results states that given a map $u: E\to F^*$, where $E, F\subset L_p(M)$ ($2<p<\infty$, $M$…
Given two unital C*-algebras $A$ and $B$, we study, when it exists, the universal unital $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal{U}(A,B)$ generated by the coefficients of a unital $*$-homomorphism $\rho\,:\, A\rightarrow B\otimes\mathcal{U}(A,B)$. When $B$…
