Let $W_+$ be the positive Witt algebra, which has a $C$-basis $\{e_n: n \in Z_{\geq 1}\}$, with Lie bracket $[ e_i, e_j] = (j-i) e_{i+j}$. We study the two-sided ideal structure of the universal enveloping algebra $U(W_+)$ of $W_+$. We show…

K\"onig's lemma is a fundamental result about trees with countless applications in mathematics and computer science. In contrapositive form, it states that if a tree is finitely branching and well-founded (i.e. has no infinite paths), then…

A key notion bridging the gap between {\it quantum operator algebras} \cite{LZ10} and {\it vertex operator algebras} \cite{Bor}\cite{FLM} is the definition of the commutativity of a pair of quantum operators (see section 2 below). This is…

We present a combinatorial model of configuration spaces and polytopes associated to the quotients of $\mathbb{C} A_n$, the path algebra of the linearly oriented $A_n$ quiver, i.e. the algebra of upper triangular matrices. These quotient…

We give the necessary and sufficient condition for a separated Cohn-Leavitt path algebra of a finite digraph to have IBN. As a consequence, separated Cohn path algebras have IBN. We determine the non-stable K-theory of a corner ring in…

Let $L$ be an affine Kac-Moody algebra, with central element $c$, and let $\lambda \in \mathbb C$. We study two-sided ideals in the central quotient $U_\lambda(L):= U(L)/(c-\lambda)$ of the universal enveloping algebra of $L$, and prove:…

Let $\mathbb{K}$ be a field of characteristic $p$ and $G$ be a cyclic $p$-group which acts on a finite acyclic quiver $Q$. The folding process associates a Cartan triple to the action. We establish a Morita equivalence between the skew…

The Graded Classification Conjecture states that for finite directed graphs $E$ and $F$, the associated Leavitt path algebras $L_\K(E)$ and $L_\K(F)$ are graded Morita equivalent, i.e., $\Gr L_\K(E) \approx_{\gr} \Gr L_\K(F)$, if and only…

We establish a description of the maximal C*-algebra of quotients of a unital C*-algebra $A$ as a direct limit of spaces of completely bounded bimodule homomorphisms from certain operator submodules of the Haagerup tensor product…

It is first pointed out that there is a common mathematical model for the universe and the quantum computer. The former is called the histories approach to quantum mechanics and the latter is called measurement based quantum computation.…

Let G be a graph obtained by taking r>=2 paths and identifying all first vertices and identifying all the last vertices. We compute the Castelnuovo--Mumford regularity of the quotient S/I(X), where S is the polynomial ring on the edges of G…

We prove that the enveloping algebra $U(\mathfrak q)$ of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra $\mathfrak q$ contains a commutative subalgebra of the maximal possible transcendence degree $(\dim\mathfrak q+ \mathrm{ind}\,\mathfrak q)/2$.

We prove a number of results having to do with equipping type-I $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras with compact quantum group structures, the two main ones being that such a compact quantum group is necessarily co-amenable, and that if the…

We show that every subset of vertices of a directed graph E gives a Morita equivalence between a subalgebra and an ideal of the associated Leavitt path algebra. We use this observation to prove an algebraic version of a theorem of Crisp and…

Let ${\cal O}_{{\cal H}^{A,B}_\kappa}$ be the $C^*$-algebra associated with the Hilbert $C^*$-quad module arising from commuting matrices $A,B$ with entries in $\{0,1\}$. We will show that if the associated tiling space $X_{A,B}^\kappa$ is…

We study algebras satisfying a two-term multilinear identity, namely one of the form $x_1 \cdots x_n= q x_{\sigma(1)} \cdots x_{\sigma(n)}$, where $q$ is a parameter from the base field. We show that such algebras with $q=1$ and $\sigma$…

After embedding the objects quasifolds into the category {Diffeology}, we associate a C*-agebra with every atlas of any quasifold, and show how different atlases give Morita equivalent algebras. This builds a new bridge between diffeology…

We introduce a new class of infinite-dimensional Lie algebras, which we refer to as continuum Kac-Moody algebras. Their construction is closely related to that of usual Kac-Moody algebras, but they feature a continuum root system with no…

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…

We show that the graph construction used to prove that a gauge-invariant ideal of a graph C*-algebra is isomorphic to a graph C*-algebra, and also used to prove that a graded ideal of a Leavitt path algebra is isomorphic to a Leavitt path…
