Let $A$ be a unital $C^*$-algebra generated by some separable operator system $S$. More than a decade ago, Arveson conjectured that $S$ is hyperrigid in $A$ if all irreducible representations of $A$ are boundary representations for $S$.…
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 prove that for every compact, convex subset $K\subset\mathbb{R}^2$ the operator system $A(K)$, consisting of all continuous affine functions on $K$, is hyperrigid in the C*-algebra $C(\mathrm{ex}(K))$. In particular, this result implies…
Motivated by Arveson's conjecture, we introduce a notion of hyperrigidity for a partial order on the state space of a $C^*$-algebra $B$. We show how this property is equivalent to the existence of a boundary: a subset of the pure states…
Given an essential ideal $J\subset A$ of a C*-algebra $A$, and a Hilbert C*-module $M$ over $A$, we place $M$ between two other Hilbert C*-modules over $A$, $M_J\subset M\subset M^J$, in such a way that each submodule here is thick, i.e.…
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.…
We study restriction and extension properties for states on C$^*$-algebras with an eye towards hyperrigidity of operator systems. We use these ideas to provide supporting evidence for Arveson's hyperrigidity conjecture. Prompted by various…
We investigate the hyperrigidity of subsets of unital $C^*$-algebras annihilated by states (or, more generally, by completely positive maps). This is closely related to the concept of rigidity at $0$ introduced by G. Salomon, who studied…
We revisit the results of Kim, and of Katsoulis and Ramsey concerning hyperrigidity for non-degenerate C*-correspondences. We show that the tensor algebra is hyperrigid, if and only if Katsura's ideal acts non-degenerately, if and only if…
We construct an operator system generated by $4$ operators that is not hyperrigid, although all restrictions of irreducible representations have the unique extension property.
We show that if K is a compact spectrahedron whose set of extreme points is closed, then the operator system of continuous affine functions on K is hyperrigid in the C*-algebra C(ex(K)).
Let $S$ be a concrete operator system represented on some Hilbert space $H$. A $C^*$-support of $S$ is the $C^*$-algebra generated (via the Choi--Effros product) by $S$ inside an injective operator system acting on $H$. By leveraging…
A complete contraction on a C*-algebra A, which preserves all closed two sided ideals J, can be approximated pointwise by elementary complete contractions if and only if the induced map on the tensor product of B with A/J is contractive for…
We construct some separable infinite dimensional homogeneous Hilbertian operator spaces which generalize the row and column spaces R and C. We show that separable infinite-dimensional Hilbertian JC*-triples are completely isometric to an…
In this paper we give a decomposition of a state on a $C^*$-algebra into a family of pure states and a decomposition of a representation into a family of irreducible representation. Then, we use it to solve the following three problems…
We consider projectivity and injectivity of Hilbert C*-modules in the categories of Hilbert C*-(bi-)modules over a fixed C*-algebra of coefficients (and another fixed C*-algebra represented as bounded module operators) and bounded…
We say that a contractive Hilbert space operator is universal if there is a natural surjection from its generated C*-algebra to the C*-algebra generated by any other contraction. A universal contraction may be irreducible or a direct sum of…
We establish a dilation-theoretic characterization of the Choquet order on the space of measures on a compact convex set using ideas from the theory of operator algebras. This yields an extension of Cartier's dilation theorem to the…
We examine rigidity phenomena for representations of amenable operator algebras which have an ideal of compact operators. We establish that a generalized version of Kadison's conjecture on completely bounded homomorphisms holds for the…
Let $A$ be a $C^*$-algebra. We say that $A$ satisfies the SP if every bounded homomorphism $A\to B(K)$, with $K$ a Hilbert space, is similar to a $*$-homomorphism. We introduce three hypotheses that relate to extending hyperreflexive…
