In this paper, we equip a C*-algebra-valued b-metric spaces with a graph G = (V,E) and establish some common fixed point theorems. Also, some examples in support of our main results are provided. Finally, as applications, existence and…
A C*-algebra is n-homogeneous (where n is finite) if every its nonzero irreducible representation acts on an n-dimensional Hilbert space. An elementary proof of Fell's characterization of n-homogeneous C*-algebras (by means of their…
Motivated by the multivariate wavelet theory, and by the spectral theory of transfer operators, we construct an abstract affine structure and a multiresolution associated to a matrix-valued weight. We describe the one-to-one correspondence…
We study operator algebraic and function theoretic aspects of algebras of bounded nc functions on subvarieties of the nc domain determined by all levels of the unit ball of an operator space (nc operator balls). Our main result is the…
We look at various forms of spectrum and associated pseudospectrum that can be defined for noncommuting $d$-tuples of Hermitian elements of a $C^*$-algebra. The emphasis is on theoretical calculations of examples, in particular for…
Let $A$ be a $C^{*}$ algebra and $T: A\rightarrow A$ be a linear map which satisfies the functional equation $\begin{cases}T(x)T(y)=T^{2}(xy)\\T(x^{*})=T(x)^{*} \end{cases}$ We prove that under each of the following conditions, $T$ must be…
In this paper we provide a step towards the understanding of the O($n$) bulk operator algebra. By using a mixture of analytical and numerical methods, we compute (ratios of) structure constants, and analyse the logarithmic structure of the…
Operator-valued frames are natural generalization of frames that have been used in quantum computing, packets encoding, etc. In this paper, we focus on developing the theory about operator-valued frames for finite Hilbert spaces. Some…
We discuss some results concerning fixed point equations in the setting of topological *-algebras of unbounded operators. In particular, an existence result is obtained for what we have called {\em weak $\tau$ strict contractions}, and some…
Our initial data is a transfer operator $L$ for a continuous, countable-to-one map $\varphi:\Delta \to X$ defined on an open subset of a locally compact Hausdorff space $X$. Then $L$ may be identified with a `potential', i.e. a map…
The relation between representations and positive definite functions is a key concept in harmonic analysis on topological groups. Recently this relation has been studied on topological groupoids. This is the first in a series of papers in…
We consider commutative C* -algebras of Toeplitz operators in the weighted Bergman space on the unit ball in $\mathbb{C}^{\mathbf{n}}$. For the algebras of elliptic type we find a new representation, namely as the algebra of operators which…
This paper studies direct limits of full upper triangular matrix algebras with embeddings which are not *-extendible. A representation of the limit algebra is found so that the generated C*-algebra is the C*-envelope. Some examples are…
An AF C*-algebra has a natural filtration as an increasing sequence of finite dimensional C*-algebras. We show that it is possible to construct a Dirac operator which relates to this filtration in a natural way and which will induce a…
Let $\M=P\times{M}$ be a variable Mautner group. We describe the $C^*$-algebra $C^*(\M)$ of $\M$ in terms of an algebra of operator fields defined over $P\times{\C^2} $.
We present a formula for the norm of an elementary operator on a C*-algebra that seems to be new. The formula involves (matrix) numerical ranges and a kind of geometrical mean for positive matrices, the tracial geometric mean, which seems…
A C*-algebra is determined to a great extent by the partial order of its commutative C*-algebras. We study order-theoretic properties of this dcpo. Many properties coincide: the dcpo is, equivalently, algebraic, continuous, meet-continuous,…
We extend previous results on the exponential off-diagonal decay of the entries of analytic functions of banded and sparse matrices to the case where the matrix entries are elements of a $C^*$-algebra.
We discuss a synchronization property for subshifts, that we call $\lambda$-synchronization. Under an irreducibility assumption we associate to a $\lambda$-synchronizing subshift a simple and purely infinite $C^*$-algebra.
We use the boundary-path space of a finitely-aligned k-graph \Lambda to construct a compactly-aligned product system X, and we show that the graph algebra C^*(\Lambda) is isomorphic to the Cuntz-Nica-Pimsner algebra NO(X). In this setting,…
