We show that the notion of asymptotic lift generalizes naturally to normal positive maps $\phi$ acting on von Neumann algebras M. We focus on cases in which the domain of the asymptotic lift can be embedded as an operator subsystem of M,…

Let $\phi: A\to A$ be a (not necessarily linear, additive or continuous) map of a standard operator algebra. Suppose for any $a,b\in A$ there is an algebra automorphism $\theta_{a,b}$ of $ A$ such that \begin{align*} \phi(a)\phi(b) =…

Let $M_n$ denote the algebra of $n \times n$ complex matrices and let $\mathcal{A}\subseteq M_n$ be an arbitrary structural matrix algebra, i.e. a subalgebra of $M_n$ that contains all diagonal matrices. We consider injective maps $\phi :…

Let $M_n(\mathbb{F})$ be the algebra of $n \times n$ matrices over a field $\mathbb{F}$ of characteristic not equal to $2$. If $n\ge 2$, we show that an arbitrary map $\phi : M_n(\mathbb{F}) \to M_n(\mathbb{F})$ is Jordan multiplicative,…

We present the following reflexivity-like result concerning the automorphism group of the $C^*$-algebra B(H), H being a separable Hilbert space. Let $\phi:B(H)\to B(H)$ be a multiplicative map (no linearity or continuity is assumed) which…

Let $\eta\neq -1$ be a non-zero complex number, and let $\phi$ be a not necessarily linear bijection between two von Neumann algebras, one of which has no central abelian projections preserving the Jordan $\eta$-$\ast$-$n$-product. It is…

Every positive multilinear map between $C^*$-algebras is separately weak$^*$-continuous. We show that the joint weak$^*$-continuity is equivalent to the joint weak$^*$-continuity of the multiplications of $C^*$-algebras under consideration.…

Let $\mathfrak{A}$ and $\mathfrak{A}'$ be two $C^*$-algebras with identities $I_{\mathfrak{A}}$ and $I_{\mathfrak{A}'}$, respectively, and $P_1$ and $P_2 = I_{\mathfrak{A}} - P_1$ nontrivial projections in $\mathfrak{A}$. In this paper we…

Let $M_n(\mathbb{F})$ denote the algebra of $n \times n$ matrices over an algebraically closed field $\mathbb{F}$ of characteristic different from $2$. For $n \ge 2$, we classify all maps $\phi : M_n(\mathbb{F}) \to M_n(\mathbb{F})$…

Let $\mathscr{R}$ be a finite von Neumann algebra with a faithful tracial state $\tau $ and let $\Delta$ denote the associated Fuglede-Kadison determinant. In this paper, we characterize all unital bijective maps $\phi$ on the set of…

Let $W$ be a quasiprojective variety over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. Assume that $W$ is birational to a product of a smooth projective variety $A$ and the projective line. We prove that if $A$ contains no rational…

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,…

We prove that the family of all connected n-dimensional real Lie groups is uniformly Jordan for every n. This implies that all algebraic groups (not necessarily affine) over fields of characteristic zero and some transformation groups of…

Given a von Neumann algebra $M$ we consider the central extension $E(M)$ of $M.$ For type I von Neumann algebras $E(M)$ coincides with the algebra $LS(M)$ of all locally measurable operators affiliated with $M.$ In this case we show that an…

For von Neumann algebras M, N not isomorphic to C^2 and without type I_2 summands, we show that for an order-isomorphism f:AbSub(M)->AbSub(N) between the posets of abelian von Neumann subalgebras of M and N, there is a unique Jordan…

We study factorization and dilation properties of Markov maps between von Neumann algebras equipped with normal faithful states, i.e., completely positive unital maps which preserve the given states and also intertwine their automorphism…
