It is shown that the spectral radius is continuous on a $C^*$-algebra if and only if the $C^*$-algebra is type I. This answers a question of V. Shulman and Yu.~Turovskii [10]. It is shown also that the closure of nilpotents in a…

In this article, we study the permanence of topological and algebraic dimension type properties of simple unital $C\sp*$-algebras. When a pair of unital $C\sp*$-algebras $(A, B)$ is associated by a $*$-homomorphism $\phi: A\to B$ which is…

We prove the following: Let $A$ be a C$^{\ast}$-algebra. Then for $a, b \in A^+ \setminus\{ 0 \}$, we have $a b = 0$ if and only is $\Vert \Vert c \Vert^{-1} c + \Vert d \Vert^{-1} d \Vert = 1$ whenever $0 < c \le a$ and $0 < d \le b$ in…

Two different notions of approximate Birkhoff-James orthogonality in nor\-med linear spaces have been introduced by Dragomir and Chmie\-li\'n\-ski. In the present paper we consider a global and a local approximate symmetry of the…

We provide a number of sharp inequalities involving the usual operator norms of Hilbert space operators and powers of the numerical radii. Based on the traditional convexity inequalities for nonnegative real numbers and some generalize…

We give an expression for a generalized numerical radius of Hilbert space operators and then apply it to obtain upper and lower bounds for the generalized numerical radius. We also establish some generalized numerical radius inequalities…

For a state $\omega$ on a C$^*$-algebra $A$ we characterize all states $\rho$ in the weak* closure of the set of all states of the form $\omega\circ\varphi$, where $\varphi$ is a map on $A$ of the form $\varphi(x)=\sum_{i=1}^na_i^*xa_i,$…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a $C^*$-algebra, and consider the Banach algebra $\mathcal{A} \otimes_\gamma \mathcal{A}$, where $\otimes_\gamma$ denotes the projective Banach space tensor product; if $\mathcal{A}$ is commutative, this is the…

We show that the distance from an element of a C*-algebra to the set of regular elements is the infimum of the $\delta>0$ for which the $\delta$-cut-down of the element admits a polar decomposition within the algebra. This parallels results…

The notions of joint and outer spectral radii are extended to the setting of Hilbert $C^*$-bimodules. A Rota-Strang type characterisation is proved for the joint spectral radius. In this general setting, an approximation result for the…

Let $n$ be a natural number. Recall that a C*-algebra is said to be $n$-subhomogeneous if all its irreducible representations have dimension at most $n$. In this short note, we give various approximation properties characterising…

Let $\mathbb{B}(\mathcal{H})$ be the algebra of all bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ and let $N(\cdot)$ be a norm on $\mathbb{B}(\mathcal{H})$. For every $0\leq \nu \leq 1$, we introduce the $w_{_{(N,\nu)}}(A)$ as…

Let $A$ be a bounded linear operator defined on a complex Hilbert space and let $|A|=(A^*A)^{1/2}$ be the positive square root of $A$. Among other refinements of the well known numerical radius inequality $w^2(A)\leq \frac12 \|A^*A+AA^*\|$,…

In this paper, we extend the investigations regarding Birkhoff-James orthogonality of linear operators to bounded continuous functions on metric spaces. We introduce Birkhoff-James extensions of continuous functions and study them in…

Let $A$, $A'$ be separable $C^*$-algebras, $B$ a stable $\sigma$-unital $C^*$-algebra. Our main result is the construction of the pairing $[[A',A]]\times\operatorname{Ext}^{-1/2}(A,B)\to\operatorname{Ext}^{-1/2}(A',B)$, where $[[A',A]]$…

I give an overview of recent developments in the structure and classification theory of separable, simple, nuclear C*-algebras. I will in particular focus on the role of quasidiagonality and amenability for classification, and on the…

We characterize the class of RFD $C^*$-algebras as those containing a dense subset of elements that attain their norm under a finite-dimensional representation. We show further that this subset is the whole space precisely when every…

In this article, the relationship between Birkhoff-James orthogonality of elementary tensors in certain tensor product spaces with the Birkhoff-James orthogonality of individual elements in their respective spaces is studied.

Nuclear $C^*$-algebras having a system of completely positive approximations formed with convex combinations of a uniformly bounded number of order zero summands are shown to be approximately finite dimensional.

The geometry of the Birkhoff polytope, i.e., the compact convex set of all $n \times n$ doubly stochastic matrices, has been an active subject of research. While its faces, edges and facets as well as its volume have been intensely studied,…
