Let ${\mathfrak g}$ be a finite dimensional simple Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $0$. A linear map $\varphi:{\mathfrak g}\to {\mathfrak g}$ is called a local automorphism if for every $x$ in…

Let phi and psi be endomorphisms of the projective line of degree at least 2, defined over a noetherian commutative ring R with unity. From a dynamical perspective, a significant question is to determine whether phi and psi are conjugate…

Let $I(X,R)$ be the incidence algebra of the preordered set $X$ over the ring $R$. In the case of a finite connected partially ordered set $X$, we prove that the subgroup of inner multiplicative automorphisms is a direct factor of the group…

We investigate the general structure of the automorphism group and the Lie algebra of derivations of a finitely generated vertex operator algebra. The automorphism group is isomorphic to an algebraic group. Under natural assumptions, the…

In this paper we study the operator inequality \phi(X)\leq X and the operator equation \phi(X)= X, where \phi is a w^*-continuous positive (resp. completely positive) linear map on B(H). We show that their solutions are in one-to-one…

We find a description of the restriction of doubly stochastic maps to separable abelian $C^*$-subalgebras of a II$_1$ factor $\cM$. We use this local form of doubly stochastic maps to develop a notion of joint majorization between…

Let $\xi:C^*(E)\to C^*(F)$ be a unital $*$-homomorphism between simple purely infinite Cuntz-Krieger algebras of finite graphs. We prove that there exists a unital $*$-homomorphism $\phi:L(E)\to L(F)$ between the corresponding Leavitt…

We show that each positive map from B(K) to B(H) with K and H finite dimensional Hilbert spaces is a scalar multiple of a map of the form $Tr - \psi$ with $\psi$ completely positive. This is used to give necessary and sufficient conditions…

A morphism of linear algebraic groups $\phi:K\rightarrow G$ is called an epimorphism if it admits right cancellation. A subgroup $H\leq G$ is epimorphic if the inclusion map is an epimorphism. For $G$ a simple algebraic group over an…

In this paper, we prove that unital homomorphisms from continuous functions on a compact metric space to matrices over a C*-algebra with tracial rank at most one are approximately diagonalizable. We also consider some generalizations of…

We generalize the first part of A. Connes paper (math/9811068) on the zeroes of the Riemann zeta function from a number field $k$ to any simple algebra $M$ over $k$. To a given automorphic representation $\pi$ of the reductive group…

Let $\zeta$ and $\eta$ be distinct points on the unit circle and suppose that $\phi$ is a linear-fractional self-map of the unit disk D, not an automorphism, with $\phi(\zeta)=\eta$. We describe the C*-algebra generated by the associated…

We prove an algebraic extension theorem for the computably enumerable sets, $\mathcal{E}$. Using this extension theorem and other work we then show if $A$ and $\hat{A}$ are automorphic via $\Psi$ then they are automorphic via $\Lambda$…

The theory of one-sided $M$-ideals and multipliers of operator spaces is simultaneously a generalization of classical $M$-ideals, ideals in operator algebras, and aspects of the theory of Hilbert $C^*$-modules and their maps. Here we give a…

For a conjugation $C$ on a separable, complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, the set $\mathcal{S}_C$ of $C$-symmetric operators on $\mathcal{H}$ forms a weakly closed, selfadjoint, Jordan operator algebra. In this paper we study…

Let $1 \to N \to G \to H \to 1$ be an abelian extension. The purpose of this paper is to study the problem of extending automorphisms of $N$ and lifting automorphisms of $H$ to certain automorphisms of $G$.

We discuss the group of automorphisms of a general MR-algebra. We develop several functors between implication algebras and cubic algebras. These allow us to generalize the notion of inner automorphism. We then show that this group is…

Our main result is a theorem saying that a bounded operator $A$ on a Hilbert space belongs to a certain set associated with its self-commutator $[A^*,A]$, provided that $A-zI$ can be approximated by invertible operators for all complex…

Extending Wigner's theorem we give a characterization of positive maps of $B(H)$ into itself which map the set of rank k projections onto itself.

In the theory of Hilbert $C^*$-modules over a $C^*$-algebra $A$ (in contrast with the theory of Hilbert spaces) not each bounded operator ($A$-homomorphism) admits an adjoint. The interplay between the sets of adjointable and…
