We show that the core inclusion arising from a Cuntz-Pimsner algebra generated by a full, faithful and dualizable correspondence is C*-discrete, and express it as a crossed-product by an action of a unitary tensor category. In particular,…
Consider a unital C*-algebra A, a von Neumann algebra M, a unital sub-C*-algebra C of A and a unital *-homomorphism $\pi$ from C to M. Let u: A --> M be a decomposable map (i.e. a linear combination of completely positive maps) which is a…
For a compact Hausdorff space $X$, the space $SC(X\times X)$ of separately continuous complex valued functions on $X$ can be viewed as a $C^*$-subalgebra of $C(X)^{**}\overline\otimes C(X)^{**}$, namely those elements which slice into…
Hilbert modules over a $C^*$-category were first defined by Mitchener, who also proved that they form a $C^*$-category. An Eilenberg-Watts theorem for Hilbert modules over $C^*$-algebras was proved by Blecher. We follow a similar path to…
We will use commutators to provide decompositions of $3\times 3$ matrices as sums whose terms satisfy some polynomial identities, and we apply them to bounded linear operators and endomorphisms of free modules of infinite rank. In…
The aim of the present work is to study the Riesz decomposition relative to a C*-algebra homomorphism T : A --> B. We prove that under some conditions on T, T-Riesz elements can be decomposed into the sum of almost T-null element and…
We study the general structure of 2-C*-categories closed under conjugation, projections and direct sums. We do not assume units to be simple, i.e. for i_A the 1-unit corresponding to an object A, the space Hom(i_A, i_A) is a commutative…
We present a generalization of H\"older duality to algebra-valued pairings via $L^p$-modules. H\"older duality states that if $p \in (1, \infty)$ and $p^{\prime}$ are conjugate exponents, then the dual space of $L^p(\mu)$ is isometrically…
We will consider the set of all completely positive linear maps from a unital $C^*$-algebra to the $C^*$-algebra of all (bounded) adjointable right Hilbert $C^*$-module maps, which are automatically bounded, on a right Hilbert $C^*$-module…
The purpose of this note is to describe when a general complex algebraic $^*$-algebra is pre-$C^*$-normed, and to investigate their structure when the $^*$-algebras are Baer $^*$-rings in addition to algebraicity. As a main result we prove…
Let $M\subset N$ be Hilbert $C^*$-modules over a $C^*$-algebra $A$ with $M^\perp=0$. It was shown recently by J. Kaad and M. Skeide that there exists a non-zero $A$-valued functional on $N$ such that its restriction onto $M$ is zero. Here…
In this note we show that an unbounded regular operator $t$ on Hilbert $C^*$-modules over an arbitrary $C^*$ algebra $ \mathcal{A}$ has polar decomposition if and only if the closures of the ranges of $t$ and $|t|$ are orthogonally…
We recall first the analytic theory of the Hilbert modular varieties of level $\Gamma_1(\mathfrak{c},\mathfrak{n})$ and their compactifications. We construct arithmetic toroidal compactifications of the universal Hilbert-Blumenthal abelian…
C*-algebras generalizing Cuntz-Krieger algebras can be associated to hyperbolic homeomorphisms of compact metric spaces. They satisfy a non-commutative form of Spanier-Whitehead duality with respect to K-theory. We prove this for the case…
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…
We prove the following two results. \begin{enumerate} \item Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a unital commutative C*-algebra and $\mathcal{A}^d$ be the standard Hilbert C*-module over $\mathcal{A}$. Let $n\geq d$. If $\{\tau_j\}_{j=1}^n$ is any…
We show that the gluing construction for Hilbert modules introduced by Raeburn in his computation of the Picard group of a continuous-trace C*-algebra (Trans. Amer. Math. Soc., 1981) can be applied to arbitrary C*-algebras, via an algebraic…
We establish a factorisation theorem for invertible, cross-symmetric, totally nonnegative matrices, and illustrate the theory by verifying that certain cases of Holte's Amazing Matrix are totally nonnegative.
Let $k$ be a field of characteristic $p > 0$. For $G$ an elementary abelian $p$-group, there exist collections of permutation module such that if $C^*$ is any exact bounded complex whose terms are sums of copies of modules from the…
We introduce the notion of Hilbert $C^*$-module independence: Let $\mathscr{A}$ be a unital $C^*$-algebra and let $\mathscr{E}_i\subseteq \mathscr{E},\,\,i=1, 2$, be ternary subspaces of a Hilbert $\mathscr{A}$-module $\mathscr{E}$. Then…
