When $\varphi$ and $\psi$ are linear-fractional self-maps of the unit ball $B_N$ in ${\mathbb C}^N$, $N\geq 1$, we show that the difference $C_{\varphi}-C_{\psi}$ cannot be non-trivially compact on either the Hardy space $H^2(B_N)$ or any…

A C*-algebra $A$ is C*-reflexive if any countably generated Hilbert C*-module $M$ over $A$ is C*-reflexive, i.e. the second dual module $M''$ coincides with $M$. We show that a commutative C*-algebra $A$ is C*-reflexive if and only if for…

Let ${\sf CK}_{*}$ denote the C$^{*}$-algebra defined by the direct sum of all Cuntz-Krieger algebras. We introduce a comultiplication $\Delta_{\phi}$ and a counit $\epsilon$ on ${\sf CK}_{*}$ such that $\Delta_{\phi}$ is a nondegenerate…

K-theory for $ \sigma$-C*-algebras (countable inverse limits of C*-algebras) has been investigated by N. C. Phillips [{\it K-Theory} {\bf 3} (1989), 441--478]. We use his representable K-theory to show that the space of Fredholm modular…

We compute the K-theory of a collection of C*-algebras, which we refer to as boundary C*-algebras, arising as the crossed product C*-algebras of lattice actions on the maximal Furstenberg boundaries of symmetric spaces of noncompact type.…

A Hilbert $C^*$-quad module of finite type has a multi structure of Hilbert $C^*$-bimodules with two finite bases. We will construct a $C^*$-algebra from a Hilbert $C^*$-quad module of finite type and prove its universality subject to…

The universal C*-algebra generated by n projections has been described. As an immediate corollary one obtains structure theorem for a pair of projections and the solution to an associated index problem. This puts the study of a pair of…

Let H^2(D) denote the classical Hardy space of the open unit disk D in the complex plane. We obtain descriptions of both the spectrum and essential spectrum of composition operators on H^2(D) whose symbols belong to the class S(2)…

In this paper we study the structure of the $C^*$-algebra, generated by the representation of the paths semigroup on a partially ordered set (poset) and get the net of isomorphic $C^*$-algebras over this poset. We construct the extensions…

Let $P$ be a unital subsemigroup of a group $G$. We propose an approach to $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras associated to product systems over $P$. We call the $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebra of a given product system $\mathcal{E}$ its covariance algebra and…

We show that every point $x_0\in [0,1]$ carries a representation of a $C^*$-algebra that encodes the orbit structure of the linear mod 1 interval map $f_{\beta,\alpha}(x)=\beta x +\alpha$. Such $C^*$-algebra is generated by partial…

We show that the $C^*$-algebra of a countable directed graph is singly generated. As a consequence, any $C^*$-algebra generated by a countable family of projections and partial isometries satisfying Cuntz-Krieger relations is singly…

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a holomorphic self-map $\phi$ of the tridisc to induce a bounded composition operator on the associated Hardy space. This condition depends on the behaviour of the first and the second…

In a recent article, we gave a definition of partition C*-algebras. These are universal C*-algebras based on algebraic relations which are induced from partitions of sets. In this follow up article, we show that often we can associate a…

Suppose that H is a complex Hilbert space and that B(H) denotes the bounded linear operators on H. We show that every abelian, amenable operator algebra is similar to a C*-algebra. We do this by showing that if A is an abelian subalgebra of…

We show that certain C*-algebras which have been studied among others by Arzumanian, Vershik, Deaconu, and Renault in connection to a measure preserving transformation of a measure space and/or to a covering map of a compact space are…

We obtain two characterizations of the bi-inner Hopf *-automorphisms of a finite-dimensional Hopf C*-algebra, by means of an analysis of the structure of convolution products in this class of Hopf C*-algebra.

Let $\mathbb{D}$ denote the unit disc in $\mathbb{C}$. We define the generalized Ces\`aro operator as follows $$ C_{\omega}(f)(z)=\int_0^1 f(tz)\left(\frac{1}{z}\int_0^z B^{\omega}_t(u)\,du\right)\,\omega(t)dt,$$ where…

The composition operator $C_{\phi_a}f=f\circ\phi_a$ on the Hardy-Hilbert space $H^2(\mathbb{D})$ with affine symbol $\phi_a(z)=az+1-a$ and $0<a<1$ has the property that the Invariant Subspace Problem for complex separable Hilbert spaces…

In this paper, we characterize the C*-Algebra generated by partial isometries.
