We show that $B(H)$ for an infinite dimensional Hilbert space $H$ cannot be realized as the reduced twisted $C^*$-algebra of any locally compact Hausdorff \'etale groupoid. The proof is based on the canonical conditional expectation…
We study the validity of the Blackadar-Kirchberg conjecture for extensions of separable, nuclear, quasidiagonal $C^*$-algebras that satisfy the UCT. More specifically, we show that the conjecture for the extension has an affirmative answer…
This paper addresses the problem of describing the structure of tensor C*-categories M with conjugates and irreducible tensor unit. No assumption on the existence of a braided symmetry or on amenability is made. Our assumptions are…
Consider the Deligne-Simpson problem: {\em give necessary and sufficient conditions for the choice of the conjugacy classes $C_j\subset GL(n,{\bf C})$ (resp. $c_j\subset gl(n,{\bf C})$) so that there exist irreducible $(p+1)$-tuples of…
The main goal of this paper is to find operator algebra variants of certain deep results of Stormer, Friedman and Russo, Choi and Effros, Effros and Stormer, Robertson and Youngson, Youngson, and others, concerning projections on…
We derive a general obstruction to the existence of Riemannian metrics of positive scalar curvature on closed spin manifolds in terms of hypersurfaces of codimension two. The proof is based on coarse index theory for Dirac operators that…
We investigate various notions of peaking behaviour for states on a $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebra, where the peaking occurs within an operator system. We pay particularly close attention to the existence of sequences of elements forming an…
We use techniques from both real and complex algebraic geometry to study K-theoretic and related invariants of the algebra C(X) of continuous complex-valued functions on a compact Hausdorff topological space X. For example, we prove a…
Let $B$ be a $C^{*}$-algebra, $X$ a Hilbert $C^{*}$-module over $B$ and $M,N\subset X$ a pair of complemented submodules. We prove the $C^{*}$-module version of von Neumann's alternating projections theorem: the sequence $(P_{N}P_{M})^{n}$…
Arveson's extension theorem asserts that B(H) is an injective object in the category of operator systems. Calling every self adjoint unital subspace of a unital *-algebra, a quasi operator system, we show that Arveson's theorem remains…
In this article, we define operator algebras internal to a rigid C*-tensor category $\mathcal{C}$. A C*/W*-algebra object in $\mathcal{C}$ is an algebra object $\mathbf{A}$ in $\operatorname{ind}$-$\mathcal{C}$ whose category of free…
We single out the concept of concrete Hilbert module over a locally $C^*$-algebra by means of locally bounded operators on certain strictly inductive limits of Hilbert spaces. Using this concept, we construct an operator model for all…
In this article, we introduce the notions of weak boundary repre- sentation, quasi hyperrigidity and weak peak points in the non-commutative setting for operator systems in C* algebras. An analogue of Saskin theorem relating quasi…
The closed one-sided ideals of a C*-algebra are exactly the closed subspaces supported by the orthogonal complement of a closed projection. Let A be a (not necessarily selfadjoint) subalgebra of a unital C*-algebra B which contains the unit…
We consider several natural ways of expressing the idea that a one-sided ideal in a C*-algebra (or a submodule in a Hilbert C*-module) is large, and show that they differ, unlike the case of two-sided ideals in C*-algebras. We then show how…
A semiregular operator on a Hilbert C^*-module, or equivalently, on the C^*-algebra of `compact' operators on it, is a closable densely defined operator whose adjoint is also densely defined. It is shown that for operators on extensions of…
Given a C*-algebra $A$, a discrete abelian group $X$ and a homomorphism $\Theta: X\to$ Out$A$ defining the dual action group $\Gamma\subset$ aut$A$, the paper contains results on existence and characterization of Hilbert $\{A,\Gamma\}$,…
We give a solution, via operator spaces, of an old problem in the Morita equivalence of C*-algebras. Namely, we show that C*-algebras are strongly Morita equivalent in the sense of Rieffel if and only if their categories of left operator…
Parallel to the study of finite dimensional Banach spaces, there is a growing interest in the corresponding local theory of operator spaces. We define a family of Hilbertian operator spaces H_n^k,0< k < n+1, generalizing the row and column…
We continue our study of the general theory of possibly nonselfadjoint algebras of operators on a Hilbert space, and modules over such algebras, developing a little more technology to connect `nonselfadjoint operator algebra' with the…
