A completely positive linear map $\varphi$ from a C*-algebra $A$ into $B(H)$ has a Stinespring representation as $\varphi(a) = X^*\pi(a)X,$ where $\pi$ is a *-representation of $A$ on a Hilbert space $K$ and $X$ is a bounded operator from…

We find first structural background information about the reasons that for any C*-algebra $A$ and any two Hilbert $A$-modules $M \subseteq N$ with $M^\perp=\{0\}$, every bounded $A$-linear map $N \to A$ (or $N \to N)$ vanishing on $M$ might…

Based on the success of a well-known method for solving higher order linear differential equations, a study of two of the most important mathematical features of that method, viz. the null spaces and commutativity of the product of…

We consider positive semidefinite kernels valued in the $*$-algebra of continuous and continuously adjointable operators on a VH-space (Vector Hilbert space in the sense of Loynes) and that are invariant under actions of $*$-semigroups. For…

Given a C*-algebra A with a semicontinuous semifinite trace tau acting on the Hilbert space H, we define the family R of bounded Riemann measurable elements w.r.t. tau as a suitable closure, a la Dedekind, of A, in analogy with one of the…

We describe the multiplier algebra of the noncommutative Schwartz space. This multiplier algebra can be seen as the largest ${}^*$-algebra of unbounded operators on a separable Hilbert space with the classical Schwartz space of rapidly…

In this paper, we use a probabilistic approach to show that there exists a unique, bounded continuous solution to the Dirichlet boundary value problem for a general class of second order non-symmetric elliptic operators $L$ with singular…

The operator space generated by peripheral eigenvectors of a unital normal completely positive map $P$ on a von Neumann algebra has a C*-algebra structure. This C*-algebra is known as the \textit{peripheral Poisson boundary} of $P$. For a…

A unital $C^*$-algebra is called $N$-subhomogeneous if its irreducible representations are finite dimensional with dimension at most $N$. We extend this notion to operator systems, replacing irreducible representations by boundary…

Given a group G, we construct, in a canonical way, an inverse semigroup S(G) associated to G. The actions of S(G) are shown to be in one-to-one correspondence with the partial actions of G, both in the case of actions on a set, and that of…

We introduce unbounded strongly irreducible operators and transitive operators. These operators are related to a certain class of indecomposable Hilbert representations of quivers on infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces. We regard the theory…

Let $H$ be a real Hilbert space. In this short note, using some of the properties of bounded linear operators with closed range defined on $H$, certain bounds for a specific convex subset of the solution set of infinite linear…

We consider various quotients of the C*-algebra of bounded operators on a nonseparable Hilbert space, and prove in some cases that, consistently, there are many outer automorphisms.

We observe that for a large class of non-amenable groups $G$, one can find bounded representations of $A(G)$ on Hilbert space which are not completely bounded. We also consider restriction algebras obtained from $A(G)$, equipped with the…

The boundary operator is a linear operator that acts on a collection of high-dimensional binary points (simplices) and maps them to their boundaries. This boundary map is one of the key components in numerous applications, including…

In this paper, we prove that if $\mathcal{A}$ is a unital separable $C^*$-algebra, $\mathcal{M}$ is a von Neumann algebra which has the Kirchberg's quotient weak expectation property (QWEP), and $\phi:\, \mathcal{A}\rightarrow \mathcal{M}$…

In this article we show that there are branching systems (which induce representations of the graph algebra $C^*(E)$) associated to each row-countable graph $E$. For row-countable graphs, we characterize the condition $(L)$ via branching…

In this paper we investigate operator Hilbert systems and their separable morphisms. We prove that the operator Hilbert space of Pisier is an operator system, which possesses the self-duality property. It is established a link between…

Four possible definitions of the commutation relation $[S,T]=\Id$ of two closable unbounded operators $S,T$ are compared. The {\em weak} sense of this commutator is given in terms of the inner product of the Hilbert space $\H$ where the…

In this article we address the issue of uniqueness for differential and algebraic operator Riccati equations, under a distinctive set of assumptions on their unbounded coefficients. The class of boundary control systems characterized by…
