The paper is devoted to 2-local derivations on matrix algebras over commutative regular algebras. We give necessary and sufficient conditions on a commutative regular algebra to admit 2-local derivations which are not derivations. We prove…

We prove that the multiplication map L^a(M)\otimes_M L^b(M)\to L^{a+b}(M) is an isometric isomorphism of (quasi)Banach M-M-bimodules. Here L^a(M)=L_{1/a}(M) is the noncommutative L_p-space of an arbitrary von Neumann algebra M and \otimes_M…

Let G be a locally compact group. Consider the Banach algebra L_1(G)^**, equipped with the first Arens multiplication, as well as the algebra LUC(G)^*, the dual of the space of bounded left uniformly continuous functions on G, whose product…

Let $\mathcal A$ be a von Neumann algebra and $\mathcal M$ be a Banach $\mathcal A-$module. It is shown that for every homomorphisms $\sigma, \tau$ on $\mathcal A$, every bounded linear map $f:\mathcal A\to \mathcal M$ with property that…

Given a von Neumann algebra $M$ we consider the central extension $E(M)$ of $M.$ We describe class of von Neumann algebras $M$ for which the algebra $E(M)$ coincides with the algebra $S(M)$ -- the algebra of all measurable operators with…

We prove that every derivation acting on a von Neumann algebra $\mathcal{M}$ with values in a quasi-normed bimodule of locally measurable operators affiliated with $\mathcal{M}$ is necessarily inner.

Around 1967, Arveson invented a striking noncommutative generalization of classical $H^\infty$, known as {\em subdiagonal algebras}, which include a wide array of examples of interest to operator theorists. Their theory extends that of the…

In this paper we study three aspects of (P(M)/~), the set of Murray-von Neumann equivalence classes of projections in a von Neumann algebra M. First we determine the topological structure that (P(M)/~) inherits from the operator topologies…

In this paper we continue the analysis undertaken in a series of previous papers on structures arising as completions of C*-algebras under topologies coarser that their norm and we focus our attention on the so-called {\em locally convex…

We introduce a traceable operator-algebraic framework for incompressible transport on M= T3 (and, more generally, compact Riemannian manifolds endowed with a smooth invariant probability measure). Given an autonomous divergence-free…

In the present paper we consider a von Neumann algebra M with a faithful normal semi-finite trace $\t$, and $\{\alpha_ t\} $ a strongly continuous extension to $L^p(M,\t)$ of a semigroup of absolute contractions on $L^1 (M,\tau)$. By means…

We show that when $M,N_{1},N_{2}$ are tracial von Neumann algebras with $M'\cap M^{\omega}$ abelian, $M'\cap(M\bar{\otimes}N_{1})^{\omega}$ and $M'\cap(M\bar{\otimes}N_{2})^{\omega}$ commute in…

Using the equivalence between Scherk-Schwarz reductions and twisted tori compactifications, we discuss the effective theories obtained by this procedure from M-theory and N =4 type II orientifold constructions with Neveu-Schwarz and…

For a von Neumann algebra $\cal M$ with a faithful normal tracial state $\tau$ and a positive ergodic homomorphism $\alpha:\mathcal L^1(\mathcal M,\tau)\to \mathcal L^1(\mathcal M,\tau)$ such that $\alpha$ does not increase the norm in…

In this note we include two remarks about bounded ($\underline{not}$ necessarily contractive) linear projections on a von Neumann-algebra. We show that if $M$ is a von Neumann-subalgebra of $B(H)$ which is complemented in B(H) and…

This is a survey article of geometric properties of noncommutative symmetric spaces of measurable operators $E(\mathcal{M},\tau)$, where $\mathcal{M}$ is a semifinite von Neumann algebra with a faithful, normal, semifinite trace $\tau$, and…

In this paper we introduce the notion of a 2-action of a Lie 2-algebra on an arbitrary manifold M. Furthermore, in [Rog12], given a n-plectic manifold (M, $\omega$), the authors consider a Lie Infinity-algebra L$\infty$ (M, $\omega$), which…

The extension of the noncommutative u*(N) Lie algebra to noncommutative orthogonal and symplectic Lie algebras is studied. Using an anti-automorphism of the star-matrix algebra, we show that the u*(N) can consistently be restricted to o*(N)…

Let $\M$ be a finite von Neumann algebra acting on a Hilbert space $\H$ and $\AA$ be a transitive algebra containing $\M'$. In this paper we prove that if $\AA$ is 2-fold transitive, then $\AA$ is strongly dense in $\B(\H)$. This implies…

Let $\mathcal{M}$ be an atomless semifinite von Neumann algebra (or an atomic von Neumann algebra with all atoms having the same trace) acting on a (not necessarily separable) Hilbert space $H$ equipped with a semifinite faithful normal…
