We consider characterisations of unitary dilations and approximations of irreversible classical dynamical systems on a Hilbert space. In the commutative case, building on the work in [9], one can express well known approximants (e.g. Hille-…

For a representation of a connected compact Lie group G in a finite dimensional real vector space U and a subspace V of U, invariant under a maximal torus of G, we obtain a sufficient condition for V to meet all G-orbits in U, which is also…

Let $b\geq2$ be an integer and $A=(a_{n})_{n=1}^{\infty}$ be a strictly increasing subsequence of positive integers with $\eta:=\limsup\limits_{n\to\infty}\frac{a_{n+1}}{a_{n}}<+\infty$. For each irrational real number $\xi$, we denote by…

Let ${\cal A}_1$ be the class of all unital separable simple $C^*$-algebras $A$ such that $A\otimes U$ has tracial rank at most one for all UHF-algebras of infinite type. It has been shown that amenable ${\cal Z}$-stable $C^*$-algebras in…

We consider the equations $u_{yy} = u_y u_{xx} - (u_x + u)u_{xy} + u_x u_y$ and $u_{yy} = (u_x + x)u_{xy} - (u_{xx} + 2)u_y$ that arise as reductions of the universal hierarchy and rdDym equations, respectively, and describe the Lie…

This paper introduces a canonical Polish groupoid associated to any separable unital C*-algebra, termed the unitary conjugation groupoid. It is defined as the semidirect product of the algebra's dual space by its unitary group, acting by…

Let $A$ and $C$ be two unital simple C*-algebas with tracial rank zero. Suppose that $C$ is amenable and satisfies the Universal Coefficient Theorem. Denote by ${{KK}}_e(C,A)^{++}$ the set of those $\kappa$ for which…

Consider the real space D_U of directions moving into which from a unitary N x N matrix U we do not disturb its unitarity and the moduli of its entries in the first order. dim( D_U ) is called the defect of U and denoted D(U). We give an…

A closed real subspace V of a complex Hilbert space H is called standard if V intersects iV trivially and and V + i V is dense in H. In this note we study several aspects of the geometry of the space Stand(H) of standard subspaces. In…

Consider the Lie group of n x n complex unitary matrices U(n) endowed with the bi-invariant Finsler metric given by the spectral norm, ||X||_U = ||U*X||_{sp} = ||X||_{sp} for any X tangent to a unitary operator U. Given two points in U(n),…

Let $T: A\to B$ be a (not necessarily surjective) linear isometry between two real JB$^*$-triples. Then for each $a\in A$ there exists a tripotent $u_a$ in the bidual, $B'',$ of $B$ such that \begin{enumerate}[$(a)$] \item…

Given a contractive tuple of Hilbert space operators satisfying certain $A$-relations we show that there exists a unique minimal dilation to generators of Cuntz-Krieger algebras or its extension by compact operators. This Cuntz-Krieger…

Following Robert's [26], we study the structure of unitary groups and groups of approximately inner automorphisms of unital $C^*$-algebras, taking advantage of the former being Banach-Lie groups. For a given unital $C^*$-algebra $A$, we…

We study the class $HQ(\mathbb{D})$, the set of harmonic quasiconformal automorphisms of the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ in the complex plane, endowed with the topology of uniform convergence. Several important topological properties of this…

We introduce $C^*$-pseudo-multiplicative unitaries and (concrete) Hopf $C^*$-bimodules, which are $C^*$-algebraic variants of the pseudo-multiplicative unitaries on Hilbert spaces and the Hopf-von Neumann-bimodules studied by Enock,…

We verify the Upper Bound Conjecture (UBC) for a class of odd-dimensional simplicial complexes that in particular includes all Eulerian simplicial complexes with isolated singularities. The proof relies on a new invariant of simplicial…

Weyl's unitary matrices, which were introduced in Weyl's 1927 paper on group theory and quantum mechanics, are $p\times p$ unitary matrices given by the diagonal matrix whose entries are the $p$-th roots of unity and the cyclic shift…

In the theory of C*-algebras, interesting noncommutative structures arise as deformations of the tensor product. For instance, the rotation algebra may be seen as a scalar twist deformation of the tensor product of the functions on the…

When $\mathcal D$ is strongly self-absorbing we say an inclusion $B \subseteq A$ is $\mathcal D$-stable if it is isomorphic to the inclusion $B \otimes \mathcal D \subseteq A \otimes \mathcal D$. We give ultrapower characterizations and…

A collection of orthonormal bases for a complex dXd Hilbert space is called mutually unbiased (MUB) if for any two vectors v and w from different bases the square of the inner product equals 1/d: |<v,w>| ^{2}=1/d. The MUB problem is to…
