We consider problems associated with the computation of spectra of self-adjoint operators in terms of the eigenvalue distributions of their n x n sections. Under rather general circumstances, we show how these eigenvalues accumulate near…
This work is concerned with the notion of {eigenstates} for $C^*$-algebras. After reviewing some basic and structural results, we explore the possibility of reinterpreting certain typical concepts of quantum mechanics (\eg dynamical…
Motivated by some recent results, we consider the notion of eigenstate (and eigenvalue) for an element $X$ of a CQ*-algebras and the consequences on algebraic quantum dynamics and on its related derivations are investigated.
In this paper, we construct, for a certain class of semigroup dynamical systems, two operator algebras that are universal with respect to their corresponding covariance conditions: one being self-adjoint, and another being non-self-adjoint.…
In this paper we consider shift operators, self-adjoint, unitary and normal operators on the standard module over a unital C*-algebra A. We define various generalized spectra in A of these operators, give description of such spectra of…
We consider a class of C*-algebras C(X) associated with quantum spaces such as spheres, projective spaces, and lens spaces. We introduce a non-self-adjoint operator algebra A together with an explicit functor from the category of…
We show that the following conditions on a C*-algebra are equivalent: (i) it has the fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings, (ii) the spectrum of every self adjoint element is finite, (iii) it is finite dimensional. We prove that…
RO*-algebras are defined and studied. For RO*-algebra T, using properties of partial order, it is established that the set of bounded elements can be endowed with C*-norm. The structure of commutative subalgebras of T is considered and the…
We use C*-algebra theory to provide a new method of decomposing the eseential spectra of self-adjoint and non-self-adjoint Schrodinger operators in one or more space dimensions.
In [J. Math. Phys. 51 (2010) 022104] a self-adjoint operator was introduced that has the property that it indicates the direction of time within the framework of standard quantum mechanics, in the sense that as a function of time its…
Order unit property of a positive element in a $C^{*}$-algebra is defined. It is proved that precisely projections satisfy this order theoretic property. This way, unital hereditary $C^{*}$-subalgebras of a $C^{*}$-algebra are…
An operator *-algebra is a non-selfadjoint operator algebra with completely isometric involution. We show that any operator *-algebra admits a faithful representation on a Hilbert space in such a way that the involution coincides with the…
We look at various forms of spectrum and associated pseudospectrum that can be defined for noncommuting $d$-tuples of Hermitian elements of a $C^*$-algebra. The emphasis is on theoretical calculations of examples, in particular for…
All operator algebras have (not necessarily irreducible) boundary representations. A unital operator algebra has enough such boundary representations to generate its C*-envelope.
In the first part of this manuscript a relationship between the spectrum of self-adjoint operator matrices and the spectra of their diagonal entries is found. This leads to enclosures for spectral points and in particular, enclosures for…
Suppose that H is a complex Hilbert space and that B(H) denotes the bounded linear operators on H. We show that every abelian, amenable operator algebra is similar to a C*-algebra. We do this by showing that if A is an abelian subalgebra of…
We initiate a mathematically rigorous study of Klein-Gordon position operators in single-particle relativistic quantum mechanics. Although not self-adjoint, these operators have real spectrum and enjoy a limited form of spectral…
A theorem that is of aid in computing the domain of the adjoint operator is provided. It may serve e.g. as a criterion for selfadjointness of a symmetric operator, for normality of a formally normal operator or for $H$--selfadjointness of…
We prove that an operator space is completely isometric to a ternary ring of operators if and only if the open unit balls of all of its matrix spaces are bounded symmetric domains. From this we obtain an operator space characterization of…
We consider the variety of spectral measures that are induced by quasitraces on the spectrum of a self-adjoint operator in a simple separable unital and Z-stable C$^*$-algebra. This amounts to a continuous map from the simplex of…
