A Dirichlet operator algebra is a nonself-adjoint operator algebra $\mathcal{A}$ with the property that $\mathcal{A} + \mathcal{A}^*$ is norm-dense in the C$^*$-envelope of $\mathcal{A}.$ We show that, under certain restrictions,…
We introduce in non-coordinate presentation the notions of a quantum algebra and of a quantum module over such an algebra. Then we give the definition of a projective quantum module and of a free quantum module, the latter as a particular…
An operatorial polynomial polyhedron is a set of the form $$B_{\delta}(\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H}))=\{X\in \mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})^d : \Vert\delta(X)\Vert<1\}$$ where $\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})$ denotes the space of bounded operators on a…
For $\lambda\ge0$, a $C^2$ function $f$ defined on the unit disk ${{\mathbb D}}$ is said to be $\lambda$-analytic if $D_{\bar{z}}f=0$, where $D_{\bar{z}}$ is the (complex) Dunkl operator given by…
This article, addressed to a general audience of functional analysts, is intended to be an illustration of a few basic principles from `noncommutative functional analysis', more specifically the new field of {\em operator spaces.} In our…
We define possibly unsaturated, upper semicontinuous Fell bundles over Hausdorff, locally compact groupoids and establish a universal property for representations of their full section C*-algebras on Hilbert modules over arbitrary…
We study the multiplier algebras $A(\mathcal{H})$ obtained as the closure of the polynomials on certain reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces $\mathcal{H}$ on the ball $\mathbb{B}_d$ of $\mathbb{C}^d$. Our results apply, in particular, to the…
We consider subsemimodules and convex subsets of semimodules over semirings with an idempotent addition. We introduce a nonlinear projection on subsemimodules: the projection of a point is the maximal approximation from below of the point…
We say that a contractive Hilbert space operator is universal if there is a natural surjection from its generated C*-algebra to the C*-algebra generated by any other contraction. A universal contraction may be irreducible or a direct sum of…
The Dirichlet--Hardy space $\Ht$ consists of those Dirichlet series $\sum_n a_n n^{-s}$ for which $\sum_n |a_n|^2<\infty$. It is shown that the Blaschke condition in the half-plane $\operatorname{Re} s>1/2$ is a necessary and sufficient…
Recently a new kind of approximation to continuum topological spaces has been introduced, the approximating spaces being partially ordered sets (posets) with a finite or at most a countable number of points. The partial order endows a poset…
The concept of covariant coordinates on noncommutative spaces leads directly to gauge theories with generalized noncommutative gauge fields of the type that arises in string theory with background B-fields. The theory is naturally expressed…
We exhibit a singly generated, semisimple commutative operator algebra with a contractive approximate identity, such that the spectrum of the generator is a null sequence and zero, but the algebra is not the closed linear span of the…
Two results are proved for $\mathrm{nul} \mathbb{P}_A$, the dimension of the kernel of the Pauli operator $\mathbb{P}_A = \bigl\{\bbf{\sigma} \cdotp \bigl(\frac{1}{i} \bbf{\nabla} + \vec{A} \bigr) \bigr\} ^2 $ in $[L^2 (\mathbb{R}^3)]^2$:…
Let $I \subset \mathbb C[z_1,...,z_d]$ be a radical homogeneous ideal, and let $\mathcal A_I$ be the norm-closed non-selfadjoint algebra generated by the compressions of the $d$-shift on Drury-Arveson space $H^2_d$ to the co-invariant…
In this paper, we consider a continuum class of continuous nowhere monotonic functions that generalize certain non-differentiable functions, including the Bush function, Wunderlich function, continuous Cantor projectors, Tribin function,…
We give an alternative proof of a Marcinkiewicz interpolation theorem for non commutative maximal functions and positive maps, slightly refining earlier versions of the statement. The main novelty is that it provides a substitute for the…
The existence of ideal objects, such as maximal ideals in nonzero rings, plays a crucial role in commutative algebra. These are typically justified using Zorn's lemma, and thus pose a challenge from a computational point of view. Giving a…
In the current paper, we generalize the "compact operator" part of the Voiculescu's non-commutative Weyl-von Neumann theorem on approximate equivalence of unital $*$-homomorphisms of an commutative C$^*$ algebra $\mathcal{A}$ into a…
We give new proofs for many injectivity results in analysis that make more careful use of the duality between unital abelian C*-algebras and compact Hausdorff spaces. We then extend many of these results to incorporate group actions. Our…
