We display methods that allow for computations of spectra, pseudospectra and resolvents of linear operators on Hilbert spaces and also elements in unital Banach algebras. The paper considers two different approaches, namely, pseudospectral…

Let $F$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, and $G$ be a finite abelian group. If $A=\oplus_{g\in G} A_g$ is a $G$-graded algebra, we study degree-inverting involutions on $A$, i.e., involutions $*$ on $A$ satisfying…

We introduce a concept of approximately invertible elements in non-unital normed algebras which is, on one side, a natural generalization of invertibility when having approximate identities at hand, and, on the other side, it is a direct…

In this paper, we introduce the notion of a (generalized) right core inverse and give its characterizations and expressions. Then, we provide the relation schema of (one-sided) core inverses, (one-sided) pseudo core inverses and EP…

Let $\mathbb{H}$ be the general, reduced Heisenberg group. Our main result establishes the inverse-closedness of a class of integral operators acting on $L^{p}(\mathbb{H})$, given by the off-diagonal decay of the kernel. As a consequence of…

This note aims to highlight the link between representable functionals and derivations on a Banach quasi *-algebra, i.e. a mathematical structure that can be seen as the completion of a normed *-algebra in the case the multiplication is…

In the present work, we demonstrate how the pseudoinverse concept from linear algebra can be used to represent and analyze the boundary conditions of linear systems of partial differential equations. This approach has theoretical and…

A convolution algebra is a topological vector space $\mathcal{X}$ that is closed under the convolution operation. It is said to be inverse-closed if each element of $\mathcal{X}$ whose spectrum is bounded away from zero has a convolution…

We investigate two systematic constructions of inverse-closed subalgebras of a given Banach algebra or operator algebra A, both of which are inspired by classical principles of approximation theory. The first construction requires a closed…

We define two non-linear operations with random (not necessarily closed) sets in Banach space: the conditional core and the conditional convex hull. While the first is sublinear, the second one is superlinear (in the reverse set inclusion…

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…

We prolonge the list of C*-algebras for which all extensions by any stable separable C*-algebra are semi-invertible. In particular, we handle certain amalgamations, both of C*-algebras and of groups. Concerning groups we consider both…

The Bannai-Ito algebra is presented together with some of its applications. Its relations with the Bannai-Ito polynomials, the Racah problem for the $sl_{-1}(2)$ algebra, a superintegrable model with reflections and a Dirac-Dunkl equation…

Let $\mathscr{C}$ be an additive category with an involution $\ast$. Suppose that $\varphi : X \rightarrow X$ is a morphism of $\mathscr{C}$ with core inverse $\varphi^{\co} : X \rightarrow X$ and $\eta : X \rightarrow X$ is a morphism of…

We continue our investigation, from \cite{dh}, of the ring-theoretic infiniteness properties of ultrapowers of Banach algebras, studying in this paper the notion of being purely infinite. It is well known that a $C^*$-algebra is purely…

We establish a characterization of doubly power-bounded elements with finite spectrum in Banach algebras. In particular, we present a spectral decomposition for such elements, extending a classical theorem of Gelfand concerning doubly…

Let $A$ and $B$ be unital complex Banach algebras having no quotients isomorphic to $\mathbb{C}$ or $M_2(\mathbb{C})$. Assume additionally that $B$ is semisimple. If a surjective additive mapping $\Phi\colon A\to B$ satisfies…

We introduce the notion of Johnson pseudo-Connes amenability for dual Banach algebras. We study the relation between this new notion with the various notions of Connes amenability like Connes amenability, approximate Connes amenability and…

In an earlier paper, Dawson and the second author asked whether or not a Banach function algebra with dense invertible group can have a proper Shilov boundary. We give an example of a uniform algebra showing that this can happen, and…

As a follow-up to a paper of D. Petz and J. Zem\'anek [4], a number of equivalent conditions which characterize the trace among linear functionals on matrix algebras, finite rank operators and the socle elements of semisimple Banach…
