We study various operator homological properties of the Fourier algebra $A(G)$ of a locally compact group $G$. Establishing the converse of two results of Ruan and Xu, we show that $A(G)$ is relatively operator 1-projective if and only if…

We prove that the set of all integrable functions whose sequences of negative (resp. nonnegative) Fourier coefficients belong to $\ell^1\cap\ell^\Phi_{\phi,w}$ (resp. to $\ell^1\cap\ell^\Psi_{\psi,\varrho}$), where $\ell^\Phi_{\phi,w}$ and…

Let $\varphi$ be a linear-fractional, non-automorphism self-map of $\mathbb{D}$ that fixes $\zeta \in \mathbb{T}$ and satisfies $\varphi^{\prime}(\zeta) \neq 1$ and consider the composition operator $C_{\varphi}$ acting on the Hardy space…

If $G$ is a second countable locally compact Hausdorff groupoid with Haar system, we show that every representation induced from an irreducible representation of a stability group is irreducible.

Let $\sigma$ be the involution of the Roe algebra $\Roe{\RR}$ which is induced from the reflection $\RR\to\RR; x\mapsto -x$. A graded Fredholm module over a separable $C^*$-algebra $A$ gives rise to a homomorphism…

Let $Bo(T,\tau)$ be the Borel $\sigma$-algebra generated by the topology $\tau$ on $T$. In this paper we show that if $K$ is a Hausdorff compact space, then every subset of $K$ is a Borel set if, and only if,…

We prove that the twisted group C*-algebra of a finitely generated nilpotent group is $\mathcal{Z}$-stable if and only if it is nowhere scattered, a condition that we characterize in terms of the given group and 2-cocycle. As a main…

For a locally compact group $G$ and $1 < p < \infty,$ let $B_p(G)$ denote the $p$-analog of the Fourier-Stieltjes algebra $B(G) \, (\text{or} \, B_2(G))$. Let $r: B_p(G) \to B_p(H)$ be the restriction map given by $r(u) = u|_H$ for any…

Let s in S_n be a product of disjoint cycles of the same length, C the conjugacy class of s and rho an irreducible representation of the isotropy group of s. We prove that either the Nichols algebra B(C, rho) is infinite-dimensional, or the…

Under sharp conditions, we prove the existence and refined asymptotic behaviour near zero (resp., at infinity) for all positive radial solutions to elliptic equations such as \begin{equation}\label{eq11} \tag{*} \mathbb…

We say that a unital C*-algrebra A has the approximate positive factorization property (APFP) if every element of A is a norm limit of products of positive elements of A. (There is also a definition for the nonunital case.) T. Quinn has…

In this paper, we prove first that the iterates of a mean nonexpansive map defined on a weakly compact, convex set converge weakly to a fixed point in the presence of Opial's property and asymptotic regularity at a point. Next, we prove the…

We give a uniform construction that, on input of a recursive presentation $P$ of a group, outputs a recursive presentation of a torsion-free group, isomorphic to $P$ whenever $P$ is itself torsion-free. We use this to re-obtain a known…

We investigate conditions for the extendibility of continuous algebra homomorphisms $\phi$ from the Fourier algebra $A(F)$ of a locally compact group $F$ to the Fourier-Stieltjes algebra $B(G)$ of a locally compact group $G$ to maps between…

Let $A$ be a unital simple separable exact C$^*$-algebra which is approximately divisible and of real rank zero. We prove that the set of positive elements in $A$ with a fixed Cuntz class is path connected. This result applies in particular…

An analogue of Krein's extension theorem is proved for operator-valued positive definite functions on free groups. The proof gives also the parametrization of all extensions by means of a generalized type of Szego parameters. One singles…

Let $U$ be a unipotent group which is graded in the sense that it has an extension $H$ by the multiplicative group of the complex numbers such that all the weights of the adjoint action on the Lie algebra of $U$ are strictly positive. We…

We extend a theorem of Haagerup and Kraus in the C*-algebra context: for a locally compact group with the approximation property (AP), the reduced C*-crossed product construction preserves the strong operator approximation property (SOAP).…

In this paper, for $p\in(1,\infty)$ we study $p$-complete boundedness of weighted homomorphisms on the $p$-analog of the Fourier-Stieltjes algebras, $B_p(G)$, based on the $p$-operator space structure defined by the authors. Here, for a…

In this paper, we prove that $C(SO_q(4)/SO_q(2))$ is isomorphic to the $C^*$-algebra of the tight groupoid $\mathcal{G}_{\mathrm{tight}}$ associated with the inverse semigroup generated by the standard generators of its classical limit…
