Let A be a commutative unital C*-algebra and let S denote its Gelfand spectrum. We give some necessary and sufficient conditions for a nondegenerate representation of A to be unitarily equivalent to a multiplicative representation on a…
Let K be any compact set. The C^*-algebra C(K) is nuclear and any bounded homomorphism from C(K) into B(H), the algebra of all bounded operators on some Hilbert space H, is automatically completely bounded. We prove extensions of these…
A semi-computable set S in a computable metric space need not be computable. However, in some cases, if S has certain topological properties, we can conclude that S is computable. It is known that if a semi-computable set S is a compact…
Based on empirical evidence, quantum systems appear to be strictly linear and gauge invariant. This work uses concise mathematics to show that quantum eigenvalue equations on a one dimensional ring can either be gauge invariant or have a…
Spherical codes, with a rich history spanning nearly five centuries, remain an area of active mathematical exploration and are far from being fully understood. These codes, which arise naturally in problems of geometry, combinatorics, and…
The generalized state space of a commutative C*-algebra, denoted S_H(C(X)), is the set of positive unital maps from C(X) to the algebra B(H) of bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space H. C*-convexity is one of several non-commutative…
Characterization of the *-subalgebras in the algebra of bounded operators acting on Hilbert space is presented. Sufficient conditions for the existence of a faithful representation in pre-Hilbert space of a *-algebra in terms of its…
In this paper, we study $C^*$-envelopes of finite-dimensional operator algebras arising from constrained interpolation problems on the unit disc. In particular, we consider interpolation problems for the algebra $H^\infty_{\text{node}}$…
Let $\sS$ be a countable, abelian semigroup of continuous surjections on a compact metric space $X$. Corresponding to this dynamical system we associate two operator algebras, the tensor algebra, and the semicrossed product. There is a…
Given a separable unital C*-algebra A, let E denote the Banach-space completion of the A-valued Schwartz space on Rn with norm induced by the A-valued inner product $<f,g>=\int f(x)^*g(x) dx$. The assignment of the pseudodifferential…
We continue our study of topological partial *-algebras, focusing our attention to *-semisimple partial *-algebras, that is, those that possess a {multiplication core} and sufficiently many *-representations. We discuss the respective roles…
Let $S = S_g$ be a closed orientable surface of genus $g \geq 2$ and $Mod(S)$ be the mapping class group of $S$. In this paper, we show that the boundary representation of $Mod(S)$ is ergodic using statistical hyperbolicity, which…
We introduce a general algebraic setting for describing linear boundary problems in a symbolic computation context, with emphasis on the case of partial differential equations. The general setting is then applied to the Cauchy problem for…
Given any separable complex Hilbert space, any trace-class operator $B$ which does not have purely imaginary trace, and any generator $L$ of a norm-continuous one-parameter semigroup of completely positive maps we prove that there exists a…
Given a class of nonautonomous elliptic operators $\A(t)$ with unbounded coefficients, defined in $\overline{I \times \Om}$ (where $I$ is a right-halfline or $I=\R$ and $\Om\subset \Rd$ is possibly unbounded), we prove existence and…
We study boundary value problems for linear elliptic differential operators of order one. The underlying manifold may be noncompact, but the boundary is assumed to be compact. We require a symmetry property of the principal symbol of the…
We study positivity in C*-modules and operator spaces using open tripotents, and an ordered version of the `noncommutative Shilov boundary'. Because of their independent interest, we also systematically study open tripotents and their…
Let $S \subset \mathbb{Z}^{d}$ be a finitely generated subsemigroup. Let $E$ be a product system over $S$. We show that there exists an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ and a semigroup $\alpha:=\{\alpha_x\}_{x \in…
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…
The main purpose of this article is to explore the possibility of extending the notion of peripheral Poisson boundary of unital completely positive (UCP) maps to contractive completely positive (CCP) maps and to unital and non-unital…
