We endow twisted tensor products with a natural notion of counit and comultiplication, and we provide sufficient and necessary conditions making the twisted tensor product a counital coassociative coalgebra. We then characterize when the…

Let $V$ be an operator space and $\iso(V)$ be the group of all completely isometric bijective linear mappings on $V$. Let $G$ act on $V$ via a strongly continuous group homomorphism $\alpha:G \to \iso (V)$. We define the full (and reduced)…

Algebras generated by strictly positive matrices are described up to similarity, including the commutative, simple, and semisimple cases. We provide sufficient conditions for some block diagonal matrix algebras to be generated by a set of…

In this paper we discuss the relationship between direct products of monounary algebras and their components, with respect to the properties of residual finiteness, strong/weak subalgebra separability, and complete separability. For each of…

We define the tensor product of filtered $A_\infty$-algebras. establish some of its properties and give a partial description of the space of bounding cochains in the tensor product. Furthermore we show that in the case of classical…

Motivated by Exel's inverse semigroup approach to combinatorial C*-algebras, in a previous work the authors defined an inverse semigroup associated with a labelled space. We construct a representation of the C*-algebra of a labelled space,…

We consider homogeneity properties of Boolean algebras that have nonprincipal ultrafilters which are countably generated.It is shown that a Boolean algebra B is homogeneous if it is the union of countably generated nonprincipal ultrafilters…

A coproduct on a vector space $A$ is defined as a linear map $\Delta:A\to A\otimes A$ satisfying coassociativity $(\Delta\otimes\iota)\Delta=(\iota\otimes\Delta)\Delta$. We use $\iota$ for the identity map. If $G$ is a finite group and if…

We prove that a nonzero idempotent is zero-diagonal if and only if it is not a Hilbert-Schmidt perturbation of a projection, along with other useful equivalences. Zero-diagonal operators are those whose diagonal entries are identically zero…

There is a long-standing problem of algebra to extend the symmetric monoidal structure of abelian groups, given by the tensor product, to a non abelian setting. In this paper we show that such an extension is possible. Morover our non…

We construct the tensor product for f-algebras, including proving a universal property for it, and investigate how it preserves algebraic properties of the factors.

Classically, an abelian group $G$ is said to be slender if every homomorphism from the countable product $\mathbb Z^{\mathbb N}$ to $G$ factors through the projection to some finite product $\mathbb Z^n$. Various authors have proposed…

Cuntz and Li have defined a C*-algebra associated to any integral domain, using generators and relations, and proved that it is simple and purely infinite and that it is stably isomorphic to a crossed product of a commutative C*-algebra. We…

Absolute algebras are a new type of algebraic structures, endowed with a meaningful notion of infinite sums of operations without supposing any underlying topology. Opposite to the usual definition of operadic calculus, they are defined as…

An algebraic category $\mathcal{C}$ is called balanced if the cotriple cohomology of any object of $\mathcal{C}$ vanishes in positive dimensions on injective coefficient modules. Important examples of balanced and of non-balanced categories…

We show that a unital ring is generated by its commutators as an ideal if and only if there exists a natural number $N$ such that every element is a sum of $N$ products of pairs of commutators. We show that one can take $N \leq 2$ for…

For any finite abelian group $G$ and commutative unitary ring $R$, by $R[G]$ we denote the group algebra over $R$. Let $T=(g_1,\ldots,g_{\ell})$ be a sequence over the group $G$. We say $T$ is algebraically zero-sum free over R if…

We prove that the category of abstract Cuntz semigroups is bicomplete. As a consequence, the category admits products and ultraproducts. We further show that the scaled Cuntz semigroup of the (ultra)product of a family of C*-algebras agrees…

We investigate free products of finite dimensional $C^*$-algebras with amalgamation over diagonal subalgebras. We look to determine under what circumstances a given free product is exact and/or nuclear. In some cases we find a description…

Hard to summarize concisely; here are the high points. The first two statements below are ring-theoretic; in these R is a nontrivial ring, R^\omega, and \bigoplus_\omega R are the direct product, respectively direct sum, of countably many…
