We consider three quantum algebras: the q-oscillator algebra, the Podles' sphere and the q-deformed enveloping algebra of $su(2).$ To each of these *-algebras we associate certain partial dynamical system and perform the "Mackey analysis"…

We introduce a class of Banach algebras that we call anti-C*-algebras. We show that the normed standard embedding of a C*-ternary ring is the direct sum of a C*-algebra and an anti-C*-algebra. We prove that C*-ternary rings and…

In this article, we study a commutative Banach algebra structure on the space $L^1(\mathbb{R}^{2n})\oplus \mathcal{T}^1$, where the $\mathcal{T}^1$ denotes the trace class operators on $L^2(\mathbb{R}^{n})$. The product of this space is…

This paper is the first of several parts introducing a new powerful algebra: the algebra of the pseudo-observables. This is a C*-algebra whose set is formed by formal expressions involving observables. The algebra is constructed by applying…

This research notes is intended to provide a quick introduction to the subject. We expose a K-theoretic approach to study group C*-algebras: started in the elementary part, with one example of description of the structure of C*-algebras of…

We investigate the structure of the commutative Banach algebra formed as the direct sum of integrable radial functions on the disc and the radial operators on the Bergman space, endowed with the convolution from quantum harmonic analysis as…

We introduce C*-algebras over C_{\infty}(Q,C) as Banach-Kantorovich *-algebras over the algebra C_{\infty}(Q,C) of extended continuous complex-valued functions, defined on comeager subsets of Stonean compact Q, whose norm satisfies…

Motivated by deformation quantization we investigate the algebraic GNS construction of *-representations of deformed *-algebras over ordered rings and compute their classical limit. The question if a GNS representation can be deformed leads…

Let $\mathcal{G}$ be an ultragraph and let $C^*(\mathcal{G})$ be the associated $C^*$-algebra introduced by Mark Tomforde. For any gauge invariant ideal $I_{(H,B)}$ of $C^*(\mathcal{G})$, we analyze the structure of the quotient…

In this thesis we explore the the possibility of characterising C* algebras by their (non-isometric) Banach algebra structure alone. We introduce a property of Banach algebras, the Total Reduction Property, and conjecture that a Banach…

We construct commutative algebra spectra that represent the operator $K$-theory of $C^*$-algebras, which are algebras over the commutative ring spectra that represent topological $K$-theory. The spectral multiplicative structure introduces…

We consider the boundary-path groupoids of topological higher-rank graphs. We show that the all such groupoids are topologically amenable. We deduce that the C*-algebras of topological higher-rank graphs are nuclear and prove versions of…

We prove that if a conditional expectation from a simple $C^*$-algebra onto its $C^*$-subalgebra satisfies the Pimsner-Popa inequality, there exists a quasi-basis. As an application, we establish the Galois correspondence for outer actions…

A duality is discussed for Lie group bundles vs. certain tensor categories with non-simple identity, in the setting of Nistor-Troitsky gauge-equivariant K-theory. As an application, we study C*-algebra bundles with fibre a fixed-point…

This paper explores some important aspects of the theory of rearrangement-invariant quasi-Banach function spaces. We focus on two main topics. Firstly, we prove an analogue of the Luxemburg representation theorem for rearrangement-invariant…

The twisted product of functions on $R^{2N}$ is extended to a $*$-algebra of tempered distributions which contains the rapidly decreasing smooth functions, the distributions of compact support, and all polynomials, and moreover is invariant…

We will introduce the notion of inductive limits of compact quantum groups as $W^*$-bialgebras equipped with some additional structures. We also formulate their unitary representation theories. Those give a more explicit…

Much of the work in loop quantum gravity and quantum geometry rests on a mathematically rigorous integration theory on spaces of distributional connections. Most notably, a diffeomorphism invariant representation of the algebra of basic…

We analyze certain algebraic structures of the Banach space projective tensor product of $C^*$-algebras which are comparable with their known counterparts or the Haagerup tensor product and the operator space projective tensor product of…

In this article we give a short and informal overview of some aspects of the theory of C*- and von Neumann algebras. We also mention some classical results and applications of these families of operator algebras.
