Let $\mathcal G$ be a Hilbert space and $\mathfrak B(\mathcal G)$ the algebra of bounded operators, $\mathcal H=L_2([0,\infty);\mathcal G)$. An operator-valued function $Q\in L_{\infty,\rm loc}\left([0,\infty);\mathfrak B(\mathcal…

We describe how self-adjoint ordered operator spaces, also called non-unital operator systems in the literature, can be understood as $*$-vector spaces equipped with a matrix gauge structure. We explain how this perspective has several…

In 1972, B. E. Johnson proved that a locally compact group $G$ is amenable if and only if certain Hochschild cohomology groups of its convolution algebra $L^1(G)$ vanish. Similarly, $G$ is compact if and only if $L^1(G)$ is biprojective: In…

We construct non-exact operator spaces satisfying the Weak Expectation Property (WEP) and the Operator space version of the Local Lifting Property (OLLP). These examples should be compared with the example we recently gave of a…

An operator *-algebra is a non-selfadjoint operator algebra with completely isometric involution. We show that any operator *-algebra admits a faithful representation on a Hilbert space in such a way that the involution coincides with the…

We show that the category OS of operator spaces, with complete contractions as morphisms, is locally countably presentable. This result, together with its symmetric monoidal closed structure with respect to the projective tensor product of…

The Segal algebra $\mathbf{S}_{0}(G)$ is well defined for arbitrary locally compact Abelian Hausdorff (LCA) groups $G$. It is a Banach space that exhibits a kernel theorem similar to the well-known Schwartz kernel theorem. Specifically, we…

Operator algebras generated by partial isometries and their adjoints form the basis for some of the most well studied classes of C*-algebras. The primary object of this paper is the norm-closed operator algebra generated by a left…

We consider the Fourier-Stietljes algebra B(G) of a locally compact group G. We show that operator amenablility of B(G) implies that a certain semitolpological compactification of G admits only finitely many idempotents. In the case that G…

The additive structure of $\mathbb{F}_1$-modules (in the sense of Segal's $\Gamma$-sets) differs fundamentally from that of abelian groups: addition is encoded through a family of $n$-ary hyper-operations that are multivalued and do not…

We show that an E_0-semigroup acting on the algebra of all adjointable operators on a Hilbert module, which has a spatial product system, arises as the the restriction of a semigroup inner automorphisms.

For 0 < s < 1, let phi_s(z)=sz+(1-s). We investigate the unital C*-algebra generated by the semigroup {C_{phi_s} : 0 < s < 1} of composition operators acting on the Hardy space of the unit disk. We determine the joint approximate point…

We give an example of a non-compact, locally compact group $G$ such that its Fourier-Stieltjes algebra $B(G)$ is operator amenable. Furthermore, we characterize those $G$ for which $A^*(G)$ - the spine of $B(G)$ as introduced by M. Ilie and…

Let $G$ be a compact connected Lie group. The question of when a weighted Fourier algebra on $G$ is completely isomorphic to an operator algebra will be investigated in this paper. We will demonstrate that the dimension of the group plays…

The conjectures of Alday, Gaiotto and Tachikawa and its generalizations have been mathematically formulated as the existence of an action of a $W$-algebra on the cohomology or $K$-theory of the instanton moduli space, together with a…

We consider an algebra $\mathscr A$ of Fourier integral operators on $\mathbb R^n$. It consists of all operators $D: \mathscr S(\mathbb R^n)\to \mathscr S(\mathbb R^n)$ on the Schwartz space $\mathscr S(\mathbb R^n)$ that can be written as…

The notion of operator amenability was introduced by Z.-J. Ruan in 1995. He showed that a locally compact group G is amenable if and only if its Fourier algebra A(G) is operator amenable. In this paper, we investigate the operator…

Let ${\cal S}(\mathcal{H})$ denote the set of all self-adjoint operators (not necessarily bounded) on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, which is the set of all physical quantities on a quantum system $\mathcal{H}$. We introduce a binary…

We develop further our fibre bundle construct of non-commutative space-time on a Minkowski base space. We assume space-time is non-commutative due to the existence of additional non-commutative algebraic structure at each point x of…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $H$ a normal subgroup. Starting from $G$-spin models, in which a non-Abelian field ${\mathcal{F}}_H$ w.r.t. $H$ carries an action of the Hopf $C^*$-algebra $D(H;G)$, a subalgebra of the quantum double $D(G)$,…
