The dilatation generator measures the scaling dimensions of local operators in a conformal field theory. In this thesis we consider the example of maximally supersymmetric gauge theory in four dimensions and develop and extend techniques to…

In a previous paper we showed how the main theorems characterizing operator algebras and operator modules, fit neatly into the framework of the `noncommutative Shilov boundary', and more particularly via the left multiplier operator algebra…

Let $\mathcal{T}_{+}(E)$ be the tensor algebra of a $W^{*}$-correspondence $E$ over a $W^{*}$-algebra $M$. In earlier work, we showed that the completely contractive representations of $\mathcal{T}_{+}(E)$, whose restrictions to $M$ are…

In this article, we aim to provide a satisfactory algebraic description of the set of affiliated operators for von Neumann algebras. Let $\mathscr{M}$ be a von Neumann algebra acting on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, and let…

We extend Ueda's peak set theorem for subdiagonal subalgebras of tracial finite von Neumann algebras, to sigma-finite von Neumann algebras (that is, von Neumann algebras with a faithful state; which includes those on a separable Hilbert…

We apply Arveson's non-commutative boundary theory to dilate every Toeplitz-Cuntz-Krieger family of a directed graph $G$ to a full Cuntz-Krieger family for $G$. We do this by describing all representations of the Toeplitz algebra…

We suppose that $G$ is a locally compact abelian group, $Y$ is a measure space, and $H$ is a reproducing kernel Hilbert space on $G\times Y$ such that $H$ is naturally embedded into $L^2(G\times Y)$ and it is invariant under the…

An operator $T$ on a Hilbert space $\mathcal H$ is called expansive, if $\|Tx\|\geq \|x\|$ ($x\in\mathcal H$). Expansive operators $T$ quasisimilar to the unilateral shift $S_N$ of finite multiplicity $N$ are studied. It is proved that…

For a tuple $T$ of Hilbert space operators, the 'commuting dilation constant' is the smallest number $c$ such that the operators of $T$ are a simultaneous compression of commuting normal operators of norm at most $c$. We present numerical…

Given a von Neumann algebra $M$ we consider the central extension $E(M)$ of $M.$ We describe class of von Neumann algebras $M$ for which the algebra $E(M)$ coincides with the algebra $S(M)$ -- the algebra of all measurable operators with…

We will give an outline of the main results in our recent AMS Memoir, and include some new results, exposition and open problems. In that memoir we developed a general dilation theory for operator valued measures acting on Banach spaces…

In this paper we develop the method of double operator integrals to prove trace formulae for functions of contractions, dissipative operators, unitary operators and self-adjoint operators. To establish the absolute continuity of spectral…

We construct a weak dilation of a not necessarily unital CP-semigroup to an E-semigroup acting on the adjointable operators of a Hilbert module with a unit vector. We construct the dilation in such a way that the dilating E-semigroup has a…

Assuming that there exist operators which form an irreducible representation of the q-superoscillator algebra, it is proved that any two such representations are equivalent, related by a uniquely determined superunitary transformation. This…

A conjecture of Kadison and Kastler from 1972 asks whether sufficiently close operator algebras in a natural uniform sense must be small unitary perturbations of one another. For $n\geq 3$ and a free ergodic probability measure preserving…

A topological group $G$ is called extremely amenable if every continuous action of $G$ on a compact space has a fixed point. This concept is linked with geometry of high dimensions (concentration of measure). We show that a von Neumann…

For $\alpha$ a positive irrational, let $\mathcal{A}_{\alpha}$ be the subalgebra of continuous functions on the two-torus whose Fourier transform vanishes at $(m, n)$ if $m + \alpha n < 0.$ These algebras were studied by Wermer and others,…

Let A be a positive operator in an infinite sigma-finite von Neumann factor M and let B_j be a sequence of positive elements in M. We give sufficient conditions for decomposing A into a sum of elements C_j equivalent to B_j for all j ( C…

A famous theorem due to Weyl and von Neumann asserts that two bounded self-adjoint operators are unitarily equivalent modulo the compacts, if and only if their essential spectrum agree. The above theorem does not hold for unbounded…

Let $M$ be a type I von Neumann algebra with the center $Z,$ a faithful normal semi-finite trace $\tau.$ Let $L(M, \tau)$ be the algebra of all $\tau$-measurable operators affiliated with $M$ and let $S_0(M, \tau)$ be the subalgebra in…
