An example is given of a simple, unital C*-algebra which contains an infinite and a non-zero finite projection. This C*-algebra is also an example of an infinite simple C*-algebra which is not purely infinite. A corner of this C*-algebra is…

We derive faithful inclusions of C*-algebras from a coend-type construction in unitary tensor categories. This gives rise to different potential notions of discreteness for an inclusion in the non-irreducible case, and provides a unified…

It has been a longstanding problem whether every amenable operator algebra is isomorphic to a (necessarily nuclear) C*-algebra. In this note, we give a nonseparable counterexample. The existence of a separable counterexample remains an open…

Entropic uncertainty relations express the quantum mechanical uncertainty principle by quantifying uncertainty in terms of entropy. Central questions include the derivation of lower bounds on the total uncertainty for given observables, the…

We show that the class of unital $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras is an elementary class in the language of operator systems. As a result, we have that there is a definable predicate in the language of operator systems that defines the…

We prove that faithful traces on separable and nuclear C*-algebras in the UCT class are quasidiagonal. This has a number of consequences. Firstly, by results of many hands, the classification of unital, separable, simple and nuclear…

Using a result of Robertson \textit{[Proc. Edinburgh Math. Soc. (2), 1976]}, we introduce a notion of differentiation of maps on certain classes of unital commutative C*-algebras. We then derive C*-algebraic Gauss-Lucas theorem and…

We introduce the category of C*-discrete inclusions of C*-algebras $A\subset B$ with a faithful conditional expectation $E:B\twoheadrightarrow A$. This class includes many examples such as finite Watatani index inclusions, and also abundant…

We show that the following properties of unital ${\rm C^*}$-algebra in a class of $\Omega$ are preserved by unital simple ${\rm C^*}$-algebra in the class of $\rm WTA\Omega$: $(1)$ uniform property $\Gamma$, $(2)$ a certain type of tracial…

We present a generalization of Hirschman's entropic uncertainty principle for locally compact abelian groups to unimodular locally compact quantum groups. As a corollary, we strengthen a well-known uncertainty principle for compact groups,…

Order unit property of a positive element in a $C^{*}$-algebra is defined. It is proved that precisely projections satisfy this order theoretic property. This way, unital hereditary $C^{*}$-subalgebras of a $C^{*}$-algebra are…

Arveson's hyperrigidity conjecture predicts that if the non-commutative Choquet boundary of a separable operator system $\mathcal{S}$ is the entire spectrum of its generated C*-algebra $\mathcal{B}$ then $\mathcal{S}$ is hyperrigid in…

We study the C*-algebras of Fell bundles. In particular, we prove the analogue of Renault's disintegration theorem for groupoids. As in the groupoid case, this result is the key step in proving a deep equivalence theorem for the C*-algebras…

The field of C*-algebras over the interval [0,2] for which the fibers are the Soft Tori is shown to be continuous. This result is applied to show that any pair of non-commuting unitary operators can be perturbed (in a weak sense) in such a…

The extended commutation relations for a generalized uncertainty principle have been based on the assumption of the minimal length in position. Instead of this assumption, we start with a constrained Hamiltonian system described by the…

A C*-algebra is determined to a great extent by the partial order of its commutative C*-algebras. We study order-theoretic properties of this dcpo. Many properties coincide: the dcpo is, equivalently, algebraic, continuous, meet-continuous,…

We describe representations of groupoid C*-algebras on Hilbert modules over arbitrary C*-algebras by a universal property. For Hilbert space representations, our universal property is equivalent to Renault's Integration-Disintegration…

Although Arveson's hyperrigidity conjecture was recently resolved negatively by B. Bilich and A. Dor-On, the problem remains open for commutative $C^*$-algebras. Relatively few examples of hyperrigid sets are known in the commutative case.…
