We study hermitian operators and isometries on spaces of vector-valued Lipschitz maps with the sum norm: $\|\cdot\|_{\infty}+L(\cdot)$. There are two main theorems in this paper. Firstly, we prove that every hermitian operator on…

In this paper, we characterise compactness of finite sums of finite products of Toeplitz operators acting on the $\mathbb{C}^{d}$-valued weighted Bergman Space, denoted $A_{\alpha}^{p}(\mathbb{B}_{n},\mathbb{C}^{d})$. The main result shows…

Assume that there is no quasi-measurable cardinal smaller than $2^\omega$. ($\kappa$ is quasi measurable if there exists $\kappa $-additive ideal $\ci $ of subsets of $\kappa $ such that the Boolean algebra $P(\kappa)/\ci$ satisfies c.c.c.)…

We study operator spaces, operator algebras, and operator modules, from the point of view of the `noncommutative Shilov boundary'. In this attempt to utilize some `noncommutative Choquet theory', we find that Hilbert C$^*-$modules and their…

We extend known results about commutative $C^*$-algebras generated Toeplitz operators over the unit ball to the supermanifold setup. This is obtained by constructing commutative $C^*$-algebras of super Toeplitz operators over the super ball…

We consider a Banach algebra $A$ with the property that, roughly speaking, sufficiently many irreducible representations of $A$ on nontrivial Banach spaces do not vanish on all square zero elements. The class of Banach algebras with this…

We prove that the additive group $(E^\ast,\tau_k(E))$ of an $\mathscr{L}_\infty$-Banach space $E$, with the topology $\tau_k(E)$ of uniform convergence on compact subsets of $E$, is topologically isomorphic to a subgroup of the unitary…

Following Granirer, a Banach algebra A is extremely non-Arens regular when the quotient space A*/WAP(A) contains a closed linear subspace which has A* as a continuous linear image. We prove that the group algebra L^1(G) of any infinite…

We establish the dual equivalence of the category of (potentially nonunital) operator systems and the category of pointed compact nc (noncommutative) convex sets, extending a result of Davidson and the first author. We then apply this dual…

In this paper we study the completely bounded anti-isomorphisms on operator algebras, that work similarly to the involutions with the exception for the property of being completely isometric. We elaborate the Blecher's characterization…

Consider an exact action of discrete group $G$ on a separable $C^*$-algebra $A$. It is shown that the reduced crossed product $A\rtimes_{\sigma, \lambda} G$ is strongly purely infinite - provided that the action of $G$ on any quotient $A/I$…

For each $n \in \mathbb{N}$ a Banach space $\mathfrak{X}_{0,1}^n$ is constructed is having the property that every normalized weakly null sequence generates either a $c_0$ or $\ell_1$ spreading models and every infinite dimensional subspace…

Let A be a unital simple separable C*-algebra. If $A$ is nuclear and infinite-dimensional, it is known that strict comparison is equivalent to Z-stability if the extreme boundary of its tracial state space is non-empty, compact and of…

In this thesis we explore the the possibility of characterising C* algebras by their (non-isometric) Banach algebra structure alone. We introduce a property of Banach algebras, the Total Reduction Property, and conjecture that a Banach…

We give the first examples of \'etale (non-Hausdorff) groupoids $\mathcal G$ whose $C^*$-algebras contain singular elements that cannot be approximated by singular elements in $\mathcal C_c(\mathcal G)$. We provide two examples: one is 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…

We use compactifications of C*-algebras to introduce noncommutative coarse geometry. We transfer a noncommutative coarse structure on a C*-algebra with an action of a locally compact Abelian group by translations to Rieffel deformations and…

It is known that the classical Banach--Stone theorem does not extend to the class of $AC(\sigma)$ spaces of absolutely continuous functions defined on compact subsets of the complex plane. On the other hand, if $\sigma$ is restricted to the…

Let A be a separable unital nuclear purely infinite simple C*-algebra satisfying the Universal Coefficient Theorem, and such that the K_0-class of the identity is zero. We prove that every automorphism of order two of the K-theory of A is…

We find a class of algebras A satisfying the following property: for every nontrivial noncommutative polynomial, the linear span of all its values in A equals A. This class includes the algebras of all bounded and all compact operators on…
