This is a survey of the theory of complex projective (CP^1) structures on compact surfaces. After some preliminary discussion and definitions, we concentrate on three main topics: (1) Using the Schwarzian derivative to parameterize the…
Using computations in the bidual of $\mathbb{B}(L^2M)$ we develop a new technique at the von Neumann algebra level to upgrade relative proper proximality to full proper proximality. This is used to structurally classify subalgebras of…

We define and study the notion of hyper-K\"ahler category. On the theoretical side, we focus on construction techniques and deformation theory of such categories. We also study in details some examples : non-commutative Hilbert schemes of…
We use non-standard analysis to define a category $^\star\!\operatorname{Hilb}$ suitable for categorical quantum mechanics in arbitrary separable Hilbert spaces, and we show that standard bounded operators can be suitably embedded in it. We…
Let $A$ be a $C^*$-algebra. It is shown that every absolutely summing operator from $A$ into $\ell_2$ factors through a Hilbert space operator that belongs to the 4-Schatten- von Neumann class. We also provide finite dimensinal examples…
Bialgebroids, separable bialgebroids, and weak Hopf algebras are compared from a categorical point of view. Then properties of weak Hopf algebras and their applications to finite index and finite depth inclusions of von Neumann algebras are…
We study a class of quantum channels describing a quantum system, split into the direct sum of an excited and a ground sector, undergoing a one-way transfer of population from the former to the latter; this construction, which provides a…
Expansion of the categorical point of view on many areas of the mathematics and mathematical physics will cause to deeper understanding of genuine features of these problems. New applications of categorical methods are connected with new…
We give a unified description of our recent results on the the inter-relationship between the integrable infinite KP hierarchy, nonlinear $\hat{W}_{\infty}$ current algebra and conformal noncompact $SL(2,R)/U(1)$ coset model both at the…
We represent minimal upper gradients of Newtonian functions, in the range $1\le p<\infty$, by maximal directional derivatives along "generic" curves passing through a given point, using plan-modulus duality and disintegration techniques. As…
We initiate a study of local operator algebras at the boundary of infinite tensor networks, using the mathematical theory of inductive limits. In particular, we consider tensor networks in which each layer acts as a quantum code with…
A countable class of integrable dynamical systems, with four dimensional phase space and conserved quantities in involution (H\_n,I\_n) are exhibited. For $n=1$ we recover Neumann sytem on T*S^2. All these systems are also integrable at the…
The structure of the commutator algebra for conformal quantum mechanics is considered. Specifically, it is shown that the emergence of a dimensional scale by renormalization implies the existence of an anomaly or quantum-mechanical symmetry…
As a laboratory for loop quantum gravity, we consider the canonical quantization of the three-dimensional Chern-Simons theory on a noncompact space with the topology of a cylinder. Working within the loop quantization formalism, we define…
Convex sets of completely positive maps and positive semidefinite kernels are considered in the most general context of modules over $C^*$-algebras and a complete charaterization of their extreme points is obtained. As a byproduct, we…
We study dilations of finite tuples of normal, completely positive and completely contractive maps (which we call CP-maps) acting on a von Neumann algebra, and commuting according to a graph G. We show that if G is acyclic, then a tuple…
The paper introduces a (universal) C*-algebra of continuous functions vanishing at infinity on the n-dimensional quantum complex space. To this end, the well-behaved Hilbert space representations of the defining relations are classified.…

Divisibility of dynamical maps is visualized by trajectories in the parameter space and analyzed within the framework of collision models. We introduce ultimate completely positive (CP) divisible processes, which lose CP divisibility under…
