It is shown that the class of Fredholm operators over an arbitrary unital $C^{*}$--algebra, which may not admit adjoint ones, can be extended in such a way that this class of compact operators, used in the definition of the class of…

Let $\mathcal M$ be a separable factor. An operator $T$ in $\mathcal{M}$ is said to be irreducible in $\mathcal{M}$ if the von Neumann algebra $W^*(T)$ generated by $T$ is an irreducible subfactor of $\mathcal{M}$, i.e.,…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be an infinite dimensional Hilbert space and $\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})$ be the C*-algebra of all bounded linear operators on $\mathcal{H}$, equipped with the operator-norm. By improving the Brown-Pearcy construction,…

We show that the unit ball of a full Hilbert $C^*$-module is sequentially compact in a certain weak topology if and only if the underlying $C^*$-algebra is finite dimensional. This provides an answer to the question posed in J.…

We define type $\mathfrak{A}$, type $\mathfrak{B}$, type $\mathfrak{C}$ as well as C*-semi-finite C*-algebras. It is shown that a von Neumann algebra is a type $\mathfrak{A}$, type $\mathfrak{B}$, type $\mathfrak{C}$ or C*-semi-finite…

Let $\Fth$ be a single vertex \textsf{k}-graph, and $\pi_\omega(\O_\theta)"$ be the von Neumann algebra induced from the GNS representation of a distinguished state $\omega$ of its $\textsf{k}$-graph C*-algebra $\O_\theta$. In this paper,…

Suppose that $\mathscr{E}$ and $\mathscr{F}$ are Hilbert $C^*$-modules. We present a power-norm $\left(\left\|\cdot\right\|^{\mathscr{E}}_n:n\in\mathbb{N}\right)$ based on $\mathscr{E}$ and obtain some of its fundamental properties. We…

We construct classes of von Neumann algebra modules by considering ``column sums" of noncommutative L^p spaces. Our abstract characterization is based on an L^{p/2}-valued inner product, thereby generalizing Hilbert C*-modules and…

We characterize those bounded multilinear operators that factor through a Hilbert space in terms of its behavior in finite sequences. This extends a result, essentially due to S. Kwapie\'{n}, from the linear to the multilinear setting. We…

Let $C^*(\cls)$ be the $C^*$ algebra generated by an operator system $\cls$ i.e. a unital $*$-closed subspace of a unital $C^*$ algebra $\cla$. We prove that any complete order isomorphism $\cli:\cls \raro \cls'$ between two such operator…

We show that group C*-algebras of finitely generated, nilpotent groups have finite nuclear dimension. It then follows, from a string of deep results, that the C*-algebra $A$ generated by an irreducible representation of such a group has…

We show that if A is a Hilbert-space operator, then the set of all projections onto hyperinvariant subspaces of A, which is contained in the von Neumann algebra vN(A) that is generated by A, is independent of the representation of vN(A),…

Let $L$ be a length function on a group $G$, and let $M_L$ denote the operator of pointwise multiplication by $L$ on $\ell^2(G)$. Following Connes, $M_L$ can be used as a "Dirac" operator for the reduced group C*-algebra $C_r^*(G)$. It…

We introduce a new class of operator algebras -- tracially complete C*-algebras -- as a vehicle for transferring ideas and results between C*-algebras and their tracial von Neumann algebra completions. We obtain structure and classification…

Recently, we have constructed a non{linear (polynomial) extension of the 1-mode Heisenberg group and the corresponding Fock and Weyl representations. The transition from the 1-mode case to the current algebra level, in which the operators…

The theory of Toeplitz quantization presented in our previous paper is extended and further developed to include diverse and interesting non-commutative realizations of the classical Euclidean plane. This is done using Hilbert spaces of…

We show that the class of 1-exact operator systems is not uniformly definable by a sequence of types. We use this fact to show that there is no finitary version of Arveson's extension theorem. Next, we show that WEP is equivalent to a…

We study the theory of a Hilbert space H as a module for a unital C*-algebra A from the point of view of continuous logic. We give an explicit axiomatization for this theory and describe the structure of all the representations which are…

Let $M\subset N$ be Hilbert $C^*$-modules over a $C^*$-algebra $A$ with $M^\perp=0$. It was shown recently by J. Kaad and M. Skeide that there exists a non-zero $A$-valued functional on $N$ such that its restriction onto $M$ is zero. Here…

We give a new Banach module characterization of $W^*$-modules, also known as selfdual Hilbert $C^*$-modules over a von Neumann algebra. This leads to a generalization of the notion, and the theory, of W*-modules, to the setting where the…
