Absolutely separable states $\varrho$ remain separable under arbitrary unitary transformations $U \varrho U^{\dag}$. By example of a three qubit system we show that in multipartite scenario neither full separability implies bipartite…

We consider inductive systems of C*-algebras with completely positive contractive connecting maps. We define a condition, called C*-encoding, which is sufficient for the limit of the system to be completely order isomorphic to a C*-algebra…

We study two classes of operator algebras associated with a unital subsemigroup $P$ of a discrete group $G$: one related to universal structures, and one related to co-universal structures. First we provide connections between universal…

We show that nuclear C*-algebras have a refined version of the completely positive approximation property, in which the maps that approximately factorize through finite dimensional algebras are convex combinations of order zero maps. We use…

We introduce the CP*-construction on a dagger compact closed category as a generalisation of Selinger's CPM-construction. While the latter takes a dagger compact closed category and forms its category of "abstract matrix algebras" and…

Let $A$ be a separable unital C*-algebra and let $\pi : A \ra \Lc(\Hf)$ be a faithful representation of $A$ on a separable Hilbert space $\Hf$ such that $\pi(A) \cap \Kc(\Hf) = \{0 \}$. We show that $\Oc_E$, the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra…

A generalization of the Choi-Jamiolkowski isomorphism for completely positive maps between operator algebras is introduced. Particular emphasis is placed on the case of normal unital completely positive maps defined between von Neumann…

In the present article we review an approximation procedure for amenable traces on unital and separable C*-algebras acting on a Hilbert space in terms of F\o lner sequences of non-zero finite rank projections. We apply this method to…

We propose the notion of countable decomposability of maps on C*-algebras: a bounded linear map $\varphi : \mathscr{A}\to B(\mathcal{H})$, where $\mathscr{A}$ is a C*-algebra and $\mathcal{H}$ a Hilbert space, will be called countably…

Let $\Phi$ be a trace-preserving, positivity-preserving (but not necessarily completely positive) linear map on the algebra of complex $2 \times 2$ matrices, and let $\Omega$ be any finite-dimensional completely positive map. For $p=2$ and…

We write arbitrary separable nuclear C*-algebras as limits of inductive systems of finite-dimensional C*-algebras with completely positive connecting maps. The characteristic feature of such CPC*-systems is that the maps become more and…

As a partial generalisation of the Uhlhorn theorem to Hilbert $C^*$-modules, we show in this article that the module structure and the orthogonality structure of a Hilbert $C^*$-module determine its Hilbert $C^*$-module structure. In fact,…

We define E-theory for separable C*-algebras over second countable topological spaces and establish its basic properties. This includes an approximation theorem that relates the E-theory over a general space to the E-theories over finite…

We shall prove the following Stinespring-type theorem: there exists a triple $(\pi,\mathcal{H},\mathbf{V})$ associated with an unital completely positive map $\Phi:\mathfrak{A}\rightarrow \mathfrak{A}$ on C* algebra $\mathfrak{A}$ with…

Let $\mathcal A$ be a separable, unital, approximately divisible C$^*$-algebra. We show that $\mathcal A$ is generated by two self-adjoint elements and the topological free entropy dimension of any finite generating set of $\mathcal A$ is…

We answer a question of Takesaki by showing that the following can be derived from the thesis of N-T Shen: If A and B are sigma-unital hereditary C*-subalgebras of C such that ||p - q|| < 1, where p and q are the corresponding open…

In an attempt to propose more general conditions for decoherence to occur, we study spectral and ergodic properties of unital, completely positive maps on not necessarily unital $C^*$-algebras, with a particular focus on gapped maps for…

Let $A$ and $C$ be two unital simple C*-algebas with tracial rank zero. Suppose that $C$ is amenable and satisfies the Universal Coefficient Theorem. Denote by ${{KK}}_e(C,A)^{++}$ the set of those $\kappa$ for which…

We present some properties of (not necessarily linear) positive maps between $C^*$-algebras. We first extend the notion of Lieb functions to that of Lieb positive maps between $C^*$-algebras. Then we give some basic properties and…

Let $\gamma = (\gamma_1,...,\gamma_N)$, $N \geq 2$, be a system of proper contractions on a complete metric space. Then there exists a unique self-similar non-empty compact subset $K$. We consider the union ${\mathcal G} = \cup_{i=1}^N…
