Given an essential ideal $J\subset A$ of a C*-algebra $A$, and a Hilbert C*-module $M$ over $A$, we place $M$ between two other Hilbert C*-modules over $A$, $M_J\subset M\subset M^J$, in such a way that each submodule here is thick, i.e.…

Let $M$ be a maximal subalgebra of a Lie algebra $L$ and $A/B$ a chief factor of $L$ such that $B \subseteq M$ and $A \not \subseteq M$. We call the factor algebra $M \cap A/B$ a $c$-section of $M$. All such $c$-sections are isomorphic, and…

We show that a representation of a Banach algebra $A$ on a Banach space $X$ can be extended to a canonical representation of $A^{**}$ on $X$ if and only if certain orbit maps $A\to X$ are weakly compact. When this is the case, we show that…

A result of Akemann, Anderson, and Pedersen states that if a sequence of pure states of a C*-algebra A approaches infinity in a certain sense, then there is a MASA B such that each of the states has the unique extension property with…

Let I be a finitely supported complete m-primary ideal of a regular local ring (R, m). A theorem of Lipman implies that I has a unique factorization as a *-product of special *-simple complete ideals with possibly negative exponents for…

We study operator algebras arising from monomial ideals in the ring of polynomials in noncommuting variables, through the apparatus of subproduct systems and C*-correspondences. We provide a full comparison amongst the related operator…

Let M be a fixed left R-module. For a left R-module X, we introduce the notion of M-prime (resp. M-semiprime) submodule of X such that in the case M=R, which coincides with prime (resp. semiprime) submodule of X. Other concepts encountered…

For a Banach D-bimodule M over an abelian unital C*-algebra D, we define E(M) as the collection of norm-one eigenvectors for the dual action of D on the Banach space dual of M. Equip E(M) with the weak-* topology. We develop general…

We introduce an appropriate notion of inner amenability for locally compact quantum groups, study its basic properties, related notions, and examples arising from the bicrossed product construction. We relate these notions to homological…

Associated to any (pseudo)-Riemannian manifold $M$ of dimension $n$ is an $n+1$-dimensional noncommutative differential structure $(\Omega^1,\extd)$ on the manifold, with the extra dimension encoding the classical Laplacian as a…

For Banach spaces $X$ and $Y$, a bounded linear operator $T\colon X \longrightarrow Y^*$ is said to weak-star quasi attain its norm if the $\sigma(Y^*,Y)$-closure of the image by $T$ of the unit ball of $X$ intersects the sphere of radius…

We present a general `off-shell' description of the effective N=1 supergravity describing the low-energy limit of M-theory compactified on (Calabi-Yau) x S1/Z2. In our formulation, the M-theory Bianchi identities are imposed by the…

An ideal is a nonempty collection of subsets closed under heredity and finite additivity. The aim of this paper is to unify some weak separation properties via topological ideals. We concentrate our attention on the separation axioms…

Let $X$ be a separable nonquasireflexive Banach space. Let $Y$ be a Banach space isomorphic to a subspace of $X^*$. The paper is devoted to the following questions: 1. Under what conditions does there exist an isomorphic embedding $T:Y\to…

Given a Banach space X and a bounded linear operator T on X, a subspace Y of X is almost invariant under T if TY is a subspace of Y+F for some finite-dimensional ``error'' F. In this paper, we study subspaces that are almost invariant under…

Let $\Omega$ be a compact Hausdorff space, let $E$ be a Banach space, and let $C(\Omega, E)$ stand for the Banach space of all $E$-valued continuous functions on $\Omega$ under supnorm. In this paper we study when nuclear operators on…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group, and let $A_\cb(G)$ denote the closure of $A(G)$, the Fourier algebra of $G$, in the space of completely bounded multipliers of $A(G)$. If $G$ is a weakly amenable, discrete group such that $\cstar(G)$ is…

In 1994, M. M. Popov [On integrability in F-spaces, Studia Math. no 3, 205-220] showed that the fundamental theorem of calculus fails, in general, for functions mapping from a compact interval of the real line into the lp-spaces for 0<p<1,…
