We consider a class of singular foliations in the sense of Androulidakis and Skandalis that we call transverse order $k$ foliations. These have a finite number of leaves: one hypersurface (the singular leaf) together with the components of…

A countable discrete group $\Gamma$ is said to be Frobenius stable if a function from the group that is "almost multiplicative" in the point Frobenius norm topology is "close" to a genuine unitary representation in the same topology. The…

We prove that the space $\mathscr{P}(\mathfrak{A})$ of pure states of a nonelementary, simple, separable, real rank zero $C^*$-algebra $\mathfrak{A}$ has trivial homotopy groups of all orders when $\mathscr{P}(\mathfrak{A})$ is equipped…

We show that there exists a separable, nuclear C*-algebra with real rank zero and trivial K-theory such that its multiplier and corona algebra have real rank one. This disproves two conjectures of Brown and Pedersen. We also compute the…

We prove that every biorthogonality preserving linear surjection between two dual or compact C$^*$-algebras or between two von Neumann algebras is automatically continuous.

We prove that every JB$^*$-triple $E$ (in particular, every $C^*$-algebra) satisfying the Daugavet property also satisfies the stronger polynomial Daugavet property, that is, every weakly compact polynomial $P\colon E \longrightarrow E$…

We introduce generalised triple homomorphism between Jordan Banach triple systems as a concept which extends the notion of generalised homomorphism between Banach algebras given by Jarosz and Johnson in 1985 and 1987, respectively. We prove…

Let $T:E\rightarrow F$ be a non-necessarily continuous triple homomorphism from a (complex) JB$^*$-triple (respectively, a (real) J$^*$B-triple) to a normed Jordan triple. The following statements hold: (1) $T$ has closed range whenever $T$…

We prove that every biorthogonality preserving linear surjection from a weakly compact JB$^*$triple containing no infinite dimensional rank-one summands onto another JB$^*$-triple is automatically continuous. We also show that every…

We introduce $n$-orthogonality (and completely orthogonality) preserving operators between C$^*$-algebras. Our main theorem states that every completely orthogonality preserving bounded linear mapping between C$^*$-algebras is a weighted…

In this article we investigate the primeness of generalized wreath product II$_1$ factors using deformation/rigidity theory techniques. We give general conditions relating tensor decompositions of generalized wreath products to stabilizers…

We consider operator systems associated to spectral truncations of tori. We show that their state spaces, when equipped with the Connes distance function, converge in the Gromov--Hausdorff sense to the space of all Borel probability…

In this paper, we characterize $\ell$-open and $\ell$-closed $C^*$-algebras and deduce that $\ell$-open $C^*$-algebras are $\ell$-closed, as conjectured by Blackadar. Moreover, we show that a commutative unital $C^*$-algebra is $\ell$-open…

Given tuples of properly normalized independent $N\times N$ G.U.E. matrices $(X_N^{(1)},\dots,X_N^{(r_1)})$ and $(Y_N^{(1)},\dots,Y_N^{(r_2)})$, we show that the tuple $(X_N^{(1)}\otimes I_N,\dots,X_N^{(r_1)}\otimes I_N,I_N\otimes…

We prove that the class of crossed product C*-algebras associated with the action of the multiplicative group of a number field on its ring of finite adeles is rigid in the following explicit sense: Given any *-isomorphism between two such…

We construct an endomorphism of the Jiang-Su algebra $\mathcal{Z}$ which does not admit a conditional expectation. This answers a question in the testamentary homework by E. Kirchberg. As an application, it is shown that any unital…

We construct the noncommutative Poisson boundaries of tracial von Neumann algebras through the ultraproducts of von Neumann algebras. As an application of this result, we complete the proof of Kaimanovich-Vershik's fundamental theorems…

We consider the notion of strong self-absorption for continuous actions of locally compact groups on the hyperfinite II$_1$-factor and characterize when such an action is tensorially absorbed by another given action on any separably acting…

Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a locally compact \'{e}tale groupoid and $\mathscr{L}(L^2(\mathcal{G}))$ be the $C^*$-algebra of adjointable operators on the Hilbert $C^*$-module $L^2(\mathcal{G})$. In this paper, we discover a notion called…

Let $G$ be a compact quantum group. We show that given a $G$-equivariant $\mathrm{C}^*$-correspondence $E$, the Pimsner algebra $\mathcal{O}_E$ can be naturally made into a $G$-$\mathrm{C}^*$-algebra. We also provide sufficient conditions…
