We prove a quantized version of a theorem by M. V. Sheinberg: A uniform algebra equipped with its canonical, i.e. minimal, operator space structure is operator amenable if and only if it is a commutative $C^\ast$-algebra.

A large literature specifies conditions under which the information complexity for a sequence of numerical problems defined for dimensions $1, 2, \ldots$ grows at a moderate rate, i.e., the sequence of problems is tractable. Here, we focus…

A truncated Toeplitz operator is the compression $A_{\phi}:\K_{\Theta} \to \K_{\Theta}$ of a Toeplitz operator $T_{\phi}:H^2\to H^2$ to a model space $\K_{\Theta} := H^2 \ominus \Theta H^2$. For $\Theta$ inner, let $\T_{\Theta}$ denote the…
