Assuming a unitarily invariant norm $|||\cdot|||$ is given on a two-sided ideal of bounded linear operators acting on a separable Hilbert space, it induces some unitarily invariant norms $|||\cdot|||$ on matrix algebras $\mathcal{M}_n$ for…
Let $E$ be a Banach space that does not contain any copy of $\ell^1$ and $\A$ be a non commutative $C^*$-algebra. We prove that every absolutely summing operator from $\A$ into $E^*$ is compact, thus answering a question of Pe\l czynski. As…
The study of open quantum systems relies on the notion of unital completely positive semigroups on $C^*$-algebras representing physical systems. The natural generalisation would be to consider the unital completely positive semigroups on…
We prove that if an amenable operator algebra is nearly contained in a complemented dual operator algebra, then it can be embedded inside this dual operator algebra via a similarity. The proof relies on a B.E. Johnson Theorem on…
We study self-adjoint semigroups of partial isometries on a Hilbert space. These semigroups coincide precisely with faithful representations of abstract inverse semigroups. Groups of unitary operators are specialized examples of…
Let $C^*(\cls)$ be the $C^*$ algebra generated by an operator system $\cls$ i.e. a unital $*$-closed subspace of a unital $C^*$ algebra $\cla$. We prove that any complete order isomorphism $\cli:\cls \raro \cls'$ between two such operator…
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…
We investigate isomorphic embeddings $T: C(K)\to C(L)$ between Banach spaces of continuous functions. We show that if such an embedding $T$ is a positive operator then $K$ is an image of $L$ under a upper semicontinuous set-function having…
We characterise absolutely dilatable completely positive maps on the space of all bounded operators on a Hilbert space that are also bimodular over a given von Neumann algebra as rotations by a suitable unitary on a larger Hilbert space…
We prove that for a bijective, unital, linear map between absolute order unit spaces is an isometry if, and only if, it is absolute value preserving. We deduce that, on (unital) $JB$-algebras, such maps are precisely Jordan isomorphisms.…
We prove that a unital completely positive map between finite-dimensional C*-algebras is a homomorphism if and only if it is completely entropy-nonincreasing, where the relevant notion of entropy is a variant of von Neumann entropy. This…
We show that for every "locally finite" unit-preserving completely positive map P acting on a C*-algebra, there is a corresponding *-automorphism \alpha of another unital C*-algebra such that the two sequences P, P^2,P^3,... and \alpha,…
Let $C$ be a conjugation on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. A densely defined linear operator $A$ on $\mathcal{H}$ is called $C$-symmetric if $CAC\subseteq A^*$ and $C$-self-adjoint if $CAC=A^*$. Our main results describe all…
We prove essential self-adjointness for semi-bounded below magnetic Schr\"odinger operators on complete Riemannian manifolds with a given positive smooth measure which is fixed independently of the metric. Some singularities of the scalar…
We prove several versions of Grothendieck's Theorem for completely bounded linear maps $T\colon E \to F^*$, when E and F are operator spaces. We prove that if E,F are $C^*$-algebras, of which at least one is exact, then every completely…
In this article we prove that quasi-multiplicative (with respect to the usual length function) mappings on the permutation group $\SSn$ (or, more generally, on arbitrary amenable Coxeter groups), determined by self-adjoint contractions…
We shall consider a double infinite, hermitian, complex entry matrix $A=[a_{x,y}]_{x,y\in\mathbb Z}$, with $a_{x,y}^*=a_{y,x}$, $x,y\in\mathbb Z$. Assuming that the matrix is almost of a finite bandwidth, i.e. there exists an integer $n> 0$…
We consider symmetry operators a from the group ring C[S_N] which act on the Hilbert space H of the 1D spin-1/2 Heisenberg magnetic ring with N sites. We investigate such symmetry operators a which are self-adjoint (in a sence defined in…
We consider the convex set of ( unital ) positive ( completely ) maps from a $C^*$ algebra $\cla$ to a von-Neumann sub-algebra $\clm$ of $\clb(\clh)$, the algebra of bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space $\clh$ and study its extreme…
We define the notions of a compact perception pair, compactification of a perception pair, and compactification of a space of group equivariant non-expansive operators. We prove that every perception pair with totally bounded space of…
