Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring. We study tensor products involving a finitely generated $R$-module $M$ through the natural action of its endomorphism ring. In particular, we study torsion properties of self tensor products…

We study the involution of the real line induced by the outer automorphism of the extended modular group PGL(2,Z). This `modular' involution is discontinuous at rationals but satisfies a surprising collection of functional equations. It…

Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a $W^*$-factor and let $S\left( \mathcal{M} \right) $ be the space of all measurable operators affiliated with $\mathcal{M}$. It is shown that for any self-adjoint element $a\in S(\mathcal{M})$ there exists a scalar…

Let $H$ be a complex separable Hilbert space of dimension $\geq 2$, ${\mathcal B}_s(H)$ the space of all self-adjoint operators on $H$. We give a complete classification of non-linear surjective maps on $\mathcal B_s(H)$ preserving…

This paper is devoted to derivations on the algebra $S(M)$ of all measurable operators affiliated with a finite von Neumann algebra $M.$ We prove that if $M$ is a finite von Neumann algebra with a faithful normal semi-finite trace $\tau$,…

Researchers have identified complex matrices $A$ such that a bounded linear operator $B$ acting on a Hilbert space will admit a dilation of the form $A \otimes I$ whenever the numerical range inclusion relation $W(B) \subseteq W(A)$ holds.…

Let $A$ be a (non-unital, in general) C*-algebra with center $Z(M(A))$ of its multiplier algebra, and let $\{ X, \langle .,. \rangle \}$ be a full Hilbert $A$-module. Then any bijective bounded module morphism $T$, for which every…

Given a self-adjoint operator $T$ on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space we study the problem of characterizing the set $\mathcal D(T)$ of all possible diagonals of $T$. For compact operators $T$, we give a complete…

The principal theorem of Sz.-Nagy on dilation of a positive definite Hilbert space operator valued function has played a central role in the development of the non-self-adjoint operator theory. In this paper we introduce the positive…

We construct a weak dilation of a not necessarily unital CP-semigroup to an E-semigroup acting on the adjointable operators of a Hilbert module with a unit vector. We construct the dilation in such a way that the dilating E-semigroup has a…

We prove that every derivation acting on a von Neumann algebra $\mathcal{M}$ with values in a quasi-normed bimodule of locally measurable operators affiliated with $\mathcal{M}$ is necessarily inner.

We discuss representations of product systems (of $W^*$-correspondences) over the semigroup $\mathbb{Z}^n_+$ and show that, under certain pureness and Szego positivity conditions, a completely contractive representation can be dilated to an…

In this paper, we introduce the notion of invariant submodule in the theory of Hilbert C*-modules and study some basic properties of bounded adjointable operators and their generalized inverses which have nontrivial invariant submodules. We…

We consider contractive homomorphisms of a planar algebra ${\mathcal A}(\Omega)$ over a finitely connected bounded domain $\Omega \subseteq \C$ and ask if they are necessarily completely contractive. We show that a homomorphism…

We construct interpolating functions fully compatible with S-duality. We then consider the problem of resumming perturbative expansions for anomalous dimensions of low twist non-protected operators in N=4 super Yang-Mills theory. When the…

We consider the following question: Let $\mathcal{A}$ be an abelian self-adjoint algebra of bounded operators on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. Assume that $\mathcal{A}$ is invariant under conjugation by a unitary operator $U$, i.e., $U^*…

We introduce the notion of p-adic magic contraction on p-adic Hilbert space. We derive p-adic Halmos dilation, p-adic Egervary N-dilation, p-adic von Neumann inequality and p-adic Sz.-Nagy dilation for p-adic magic contraction.

We extend to infinite dimensional separable Hilbert spaces the Schur convexity property of eigenvalues of a symmetric matrix with real entries. Our framework includes both the case of linear, selfadjoint, compact operators, and that of…

We continue our study of the general theory of possibly nonselfadjoint algebras of operators on a Hilbert space, and modules over such algebras, developing a little more technology to connect `nonselfadjoint operator algebra' with the…
