Let $\phi$ be a positive unital normal map of a von Neumann algebra $M$ into itself, and assume there is a family of normal $\phi$-invariant states which is faithful on the von Neumann algebra generated by the image of $\phi$. It is shown…

Let J and J' be Jordan rings. We prove under some conditions that if J contains a nontrivial idempotent, then n-multiplicative maps and n-multiplicative derivations from J to J' are additive maps.

We show that a map between projection lattices of semi-finite von Neumann algebras can be extended to a Jordan $*$-homomorphism between the von Neumann algebras if this map is defined in terms of the support projections of images (under the…

Let $A$ and $A'$ be two alternative $*$-algebras with identities 1_A and 1_A', respectively, and e_1 and e_2 = 1_A - e_1 nontrivial symmetric idempotents in A. In this paper we study the characterization of multiplicative *-Lie-type maps.…

We show that every ring isomorphism between the algebras of locally measurable operators for type II$_\infty$ von Neumann algebras is similar to a real $^*$-isomorphism. This together with previous results by the author and…

It is shown that every linear strong Birkhoff-James isomorphism between unital $C^*$-algebras is a $*$-isomorphism followed by a unitary multiplication. Moreover, as a partial extension of this result to the non-unital case, the form of…

The literature contains interesting examples of inclusions of simple C$^*$-algebras with the property that all intermediate C$^*$-algebras likewise are simple. In this article we take up a systematic study of such inclusions, which we refer…

Let $M_n$ denote the algebra of $n \times n$ complex matrices and let $\mathcal{A}\subseteq M_n$ be an arbitrary structural matrix algebra, i.e. a subalgebra of $M_n$ that contains all diagonal matrices. We consider injective maps $\phi :…

Let $\mathfrak{A}$ be a unital ring with a nontrivial idempotent. In this paper, it is shown that under certain conditions every multiplicative generalized Jordan $n$-derivation $\Delta:\mathfrak{A}\rightarrow\mathfrak{A}$ is additive. More…

Let A be a C*-algebra and d from A into A** be a continuous linear map. We assume that d acts like derivation or anti-derivation at orthogonal elements for several types of orthogonality conditions such as ab=0, ab*=0, ab=ba=0 and…

Let $A$ be a unital $C^*$-algebra and let $U_0(A)$ be the group of unitaries of $A$ which are path connected to the identity. Denote by $CU(A)$ the closure of the commutator subgroup of $U_0(A).$ Let $i_A^{(1, n)}\colon…

Jordan isomorphisms of rings are defined by two equations. The first one is the equation of additivity while the second one concerns multiplicativity with respect to the so-called Jordan product. In this paper we present results showing…

We present geometric characterizations of the partial isometries, unitaries, and invertible operators in C*-algebras and von Neumann algebras.

We prove that every surjective unital linear mapping which preserves invertible elements from a Banach algebra onto a C*-algebra carrying a faithful tracial state is a Jordan homomorphism thus generalising Aupetit's 1998 result for finite…

It is proved that every separable $C^*$-algebra of real rank zero contains an AF-sub-$C^*$-algebra such that the inclusion mapping induces an isomorphism of the ideal lattices of the two $C^*$-algebras and such that every projection in a…

We show that any order isomorphism between ordered structures of associative unital JB-subalgebras of JBW algebras is implemented naturally by a Jordan isomorphism. Consequently, JBW algebras are determined by the structure of their…

We study the structure of certain classes of homologically trivial locally C*-algebras. These include algebras with projective irreducible Hermitian A-modules, biprojective algebras, and superbiprojective algebras. We prove that, if A is a…

H. Dye defined the projections $P_{i,j}(a)$ of a $C^*$-matrix algebra by {eqnarray*} P_{i,j}(a) &=& (1+aa^*)^{-1}\otimes E_{i,i} + (1+aa^*)^{-1}a \otimes E_{i,j} + a^*(1+aa^*)^{-1} \otimes E_{j,i} + a^*(1+aa^*)^{-1}a\otimes E_{j,j},…

It is well known that a measured groupoid G defines a von Neumann algebra W*(G), and that a Lie groupoid G canonically defines both a C*-algebra C*(G) and a Poisson manifold A*(G). We show that the maps G -> W*(G), G -> C*(G) and G -> A*(G)…
