In a previous paper the second author introduced a compact topology on the space of closed ideals of a unital Banach algebra A. If A is separable then this topology is either metrizable or else neither Hausdorff nor first countable. Here it…

In this paper we introduce and study a certain intricate Cantor-like set $C$ contained in unit interval. Our main result is to show that the set $C$ itself, as well as the set of dissipative points within $C$, both have Hausdorff dimension…

Given any irreducible inclusion $\mB \subset \mA$ of unital $C^*$-algebras with a finite-index conditional expectation $E: \mA \to \mB$, we show that the set of $E$-compatible intermediate $C^*$-subalgebras is finite, thereby generalizing a…

Given a sequence converging to zero, we consider the set of numbers which are sums of (infinite, finite, or empty) subsequences. When the original sequence is not absolutely summable, the subsum set is an unbounded closed interval which…

In this paper, we consider a family of random Cantor sets on the line and consider the question of whether the condition that the sum of the Hausdorff dimensions is larger than one implies the existence of interior points in the difference…

Given a positive, non-increasing sequence $a$ with finite sum equal to $1$, we consider the family of all closed subsets of $[0,1]$ whose complementary open intervals have lengths given by a rearrangement of the sequence $a$. We study the…

We show that all values in the interval $[0,\frac{\pi}{2}]$ can be attained as the interior angle between intermediate subalgebras (as introduced in [3]) of a certain inclusion of simple unital C*-algebras. We also calculate the interior…

We study uniform perturbations of intermediate C*-subalgebras of inclusions of simple C*-algebras. If a unital simple C*-algebra has a simple C*-subalgebra of finite index, then sufficiently close simple intermediate C*-subalgebras are…

For a sequence $x \in l_1 \setminus c_{00}$, one can consider the set $E(x)$ of all subsums of series $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} x(n)$. Guthrie and Nymann proved that $E(x)$ is one of the following types of sets: (I) a finite union of closed…

We prove that the central sequence algebra of a separable C*-algebra is either subhomogeneous or non-exact, confirming a conjecture of Enders and Shulman. We also prove analogous dichotomy for other massive C*-algebras.

In this paper, we give two properties of C*-algebra that could be deduced from the properties of its large subalgebra. Let A be an infinite dimensional simple unital C*-algebra and let B be a centrally large subalgebra of A, we prove that A…

In this paper we introduce a row version of Kadison and Kastler's metric on the set of C*-subalgebras of $\mathbb{B}(\mathcal{H})$. By showing C*-algebras have row length (in the sense of Pisier) of at most 2 we show that the row metric is…

In this paper we consider the conjugacy classes of diffeomorphisms of the interval, endowed with the $C^1$-topology. We present several results in the spirit of the one below : Given two diffeomorphisms $f,g$ of the interval $[0;1]$ without…

A classification is given of certain separable nuclear C*-algebras not necessarily of real rank zero, namely, the class of separable simple C*-algebras which are inductive limits of continuous-trace C*-algebras whose building blocks have…

An $(a,b)$-difference necklace of length $n$ is a circular arrangement of the integers $0, 1, 2, \ldots , n-1$ such that any two neighbours have absolute difference $a$ or $b$. We prove that, subject to certain conditions on $a$ and $b$,…

If ${\mathcal C}\simeq 2^{\mathbb N}$ denotes the Cantor set realized as the infinite product of two-point groups, then a folklore result says the Cantor map from ${\mathcal C}$ into $[0,1]$ sends Haar measure to Lebesgue measure on the…

Given a continuous function $f:[a,b]\to\mathbb{R}$ such that $f(a)=f(b)$, we investigate the set of distances $|x-y|$ where $f(x)=f(y)$. In particular, we show that the only distances this set must contain are ones which evenly divide…

Let C be a Cantor set. For a real number t let C+t be the translate of C by t, We say two real numbers s,t are equivalent if the intersection of C and C+s is a translate of the intersection of C and C+t. We consider a class of Cantor sets…

We show that if $A=\{a_1,a_2,..., a_k\}$ is a monotone increasing set of numbers, and the differences of the consecutive elements are all distinct, then $|A+B|\geq c|A|^{1/2}|B|$ for any finite set of numbers $B$. The bound is tight up to…

Below, by space we mean a separable metrizable zero-dimensional space. It is studied when the space can be embedded in a Cantor set while maintaining the algebraic structure. Main results of the work: every space is an open retract of a…
