We study how tensor products of representations decompose when restricted from a compact Lie algebra to one of its subalgebras. In particular, we are interested in tensor squares which are tensor products of a representation with itself. We…
In this paper we study amenability, nuclearity and tensor products of $C^{\ast}$-Fell bundles by the method of induced representation theory.
Let $A$ be a separable, unital and exact $C^*$-algebra satisfying the universal coefficient theorem. We prove uniqueness theorems up to unitary conjugacy for unital, full and nuclear maps from $A$ into ultraproducts of finite von Neumann…
We give axioms in the language of rings augmented by a 1-ary predicate symbol $Fin(x)$ with intended interpretation in the Boolean algebra of idempotents as the ideal of finite elements, i.e. finite unions of atoms. We prove that any…
Let $X$ be an integral affine or projective hypersurface over a field $F$ of characteristic $p>0$, and let $F(X)$ denote its function field. In a recent article, Dolphin and Hoffmann obtained an explicit description of the kernel of the…
We prove that it is consistent with ZFC that every unital endomorphism of the Calkin algebra $\mathcal{Q}(H)$ is unitarily equivalent to an endomorphism of $\mathcal{Q}(H)$ which is liftable to a unital endomorphism of $\mathcal{B}(H)$. We…
The Cuntz semigroup of a C*-algebra is an important invariant in the structure and classification theory of C*-algebras. It captures more information than K-theory but is often more delicate to handle. We systematically study the lattice…
The spectral functor of an ergodic action of a compact quantum group G on a unital C*-algebra is quasitensor, in the sense that the tensor product of two spectral subspaces is isometrically contained in the spectral subspace of the tensor…
Let $R$ be an associative unital algebra over a field $k,$ let $p$ be an element of $R,$ and let $R'=R\langle q\mid pqp= p\rangle.$ We obtain normal forms for elements of $R',$ and for elements of $R'$-modules arising by extension of…
We prove a general result that relates certain pushouts of $E_k$-algebras to relative tensors over $E_{k+1}$-algebras. Specializations include a number of established results on classifying spaces, resolutions of modules, and (co)homology…
Let $G$ be a discrete group. Given unital $G$-$C^*$-algebras $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$, we give an abstract condition under which every $G$-subalgebra $\mathcal{C}$ of the form $\mathcal{A}\subset \mathcal{C}\subset…
We obtain a faithful representation of the twisted tensor product $B\otimes_{\chi} A$ of unital associative algebras, when $B$ is finite dimensional. This generalizes the representations of [C] where $B=K[X]/<X^2-X>$, [GGV] where…
Quivers (directed graphs) and species (a generalization of quivers) and their representations play a key role in many areas of mathematics including combinatorics, geometry, and algebra. Their importance is especially apparent in their…
We develop a functorial framework for the ideal theory of commutative semirings using coherent frames and spectral spaces. Two central constructions-the radical ideal functor and the $k$-radical ideal functor-are shown to yield coherent…
We prove a few results about the map $Spc(F)$ induced on tensor-triangular spectra by a tensor-triangulated functor $F$. First, $F$ is conservative if and only if $Spc(F)$ is surjective on closed points. Second, if $F$ detects…
Let $G$ be a connected complex Lie group. A real form of $G$ is a closed subgroup $H\subset G$ whose Lie algebra $\mathfrak{h}$ is a real form of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ of $G$. A pair $(G,H)$ of this type is reductive, and the…
We consider the space of tensor densities on the n-dimensional sphere with degree lambda (or, equivalently, of conformal densities with degree lambda). This space is a module over the group of diffeomorphisms, and consequently over the Lie…
For each object in a tensor triangulated category, we construct a natural continuous map from the object's support---a closed subset of the category's triangular spectrum---to the Zariski spectrum of a certain commutative ring of…
Let K be an abelian extension of a totally real number field k, K^+ its maximal real subfield and G=Gal(K/k). We have previously used twisted zeta-functions to define a meromorphic CG-valued function Phi_{K/k}(s) in a way similar to the use…
This paper is centered around the classical problem of extracting properties of a finite group $G$ from the ring isomorphism class of its integral group ring $\mathbb{Z} G$. This problem is considered via describing the unit group…
