Given two C*-algebras A and B, abstract A-B bimodules that can be isometrically represented as operator bimodules are characterised in terms of their norm. Various properties of such bimodules are given. Their theory is very similar to…

Let $\cal M$ be a Banach C*-module over a C*-algebra $A$ carrying two $A$-valued inner products $< .,. >_1$, $<.,. >_2$ which induce equivalent to the given one norms on $\cal M$. Then the appropriate unital C*-algebras of adjointable…

Let $A$ be a unital Banach algebra. We give a characterization of the left Banach $A$-modules $X$ for which there exists a commutative unital $C^*$-algebra $C(K)$, a linear isometry $i\colon X\to C(K)$, and a contractive unital homomorphism…

For an operator bimodule $X$ over von Neumann algebras $A\subseteq\bh$ and $B\subseteq\bk$, the space of all completely bounded $A,B$-bimodule maps from $X$ into $\bkh$, is the bimodule dual of $X$. Basic duality theory is developed with a…

We give a new Banach module characterization of $W^*$-modules, also known as selfdual Hilbert $C^*$-modules over a von Neumann algebra. This leads to a generalization of the notion, and the theory, of W*-modules, to the setting where the…

We introduce a uniform structure on any Hilbert $C^*$-module $\mathcal N$ and prove the following theorem: suppose, $F:{\mathcal M}\to {\mathcal N}$ is a bounded adjointable morphism of Hilbert $C^*$-modules over $\mathcal A$ and $\mathcal…

For a couple $\mathcal M$, $\mathcal N$ of Hilbert $C^*$-modules over a $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal A$, one has two notions of ``$\mathcal A$-rank 1 operators'': $\theta_{x,y}:\mathcal M\to\mathcal N$, $\theta_{x,y}(z)=x\langle y,z\rangle$,…

The following topics are presented in these notes: Elements of Banach algebras, Banach algebras of the form $L^1(G)$, where $G$ is a locally compact group, spectrum of elements of Banach algebras, the spectral theory of compact operators on…

We give orthonormal characterizations of collectively compact (limited) sets of linear operators from a Hilbert space to a Banach space.

The theory of multiplier modules of Hilbert C*-modules is reconsidered to obtain more properties of these special Hilbert C*-modules. The property of a Hilbert C*-module to be a multiplier C*-module is shown to be an invariant with respect…

A Banach space characterization of simple real or complex $C^*$-algebras is given which even characterizes the underlying field. As an application, it is shown that if $\mathfrak A_1$ and $\mathfrak A_2$ are Birkhoff-James isomorphic simple…

We introduce C*-algebras over C_{\infty}(Q,C) as Banach-Kantorovich *-algebras over the algebra C_{\infty}(Q,C) of extended continuous complex-valued functions, defined on comeager subsets of Stonean compact Q, whose norm satisfies…

We prove that, under rather general conditions, the 1-cohomology of a von Neumann algebra $M$ with values in a Banach $M$-bimodule satisfying a combination of smoothness and operatorial conditions, vanishes. For instance, we show that if…

We study such Hilbert C*-modules over a C*-algebra $A$, that the Banach $A$-dual module carries a natural structure of Hilbert $A$-module. In this direction we prove that if $A$ is monotone complete, $M$ and $N$ are Hilbert $A$-modules, $M$…

We consider modules E over a C*-algebra A which are equipped with a map into A_+ that has the formal properties of a norm. We completely determine the structure of these modules. In particular, we show that if A has no nonzero commutative…

We consider group-valued cocycles over dynamical systems with hyperbolic behavior. The base system is either a hyperbolic diffeomorphism or a mixing subshift of finite type. The cocycle $A$ takes values in the group of invertible bounded…

Assume that $A$, $B$ are Banach algebras and $m:A\times B\to B$, $m^\prime:A\times A\to B$ are bounded bilinear mappings. We will study the relation between Arens regularities of $m$, $m^\prime$ and the Banach algebras $A$, $B$. For Banach…

We investigate the category of ``matricial order operator spaces,'' which generalize operator systems, being equipped with both matricial norms and matricial order. For these objects, we develop duality theory. Taking a cue from the theory…

We prove a spectral theorem for bimodules in the context of graph C*-algebras. A bimodule over a suitable abelian algebra is determined by its spectrum (i.e., its groupoid partial order) iff it is generated by the Cuntz-Krieger partial…

We show three Hahn-Banach type extension criteria for (sets of) bounded C*-linear maps of Hilbert C*-modules to the underlying C*-algebras of coefficients. One criterion establishes an alternative description of the property of (AW*-)…
