This is a survey of four recent papers which deal with the relationship of simple C*-algebras to the problem of computing the spectra of self-adjoint operators in the general case, especially when the spectrum is not discrete. It is an…

We introduce the notion of eigenstate of an operator in an abstract C*-algebra, and prove several properties. Most significantly, if the operator is self-adjoint, then every element of its spectrum has a corresponding eigenstate.

We extend the results of our previous paper "C*-algebras and numerical linear algebra" to cover the case of "unilateral" sections. This situation bears a close resemblance to the case of Toeplitz operators on Hardy spaces, in spite of the…

We use C*-algebra theory to provide a new method of decomposing the eseential spectra of self-adjoint and non-self-adjoint Schrodinger operators in one or more space dimensions.

We initiate a mathematically rigorous study of Klein-Gordon position operators in single-particle relativistic quantum mechanics. Although not self-adjoint, these operators have real spectrum and enjoy a limited form of spectral…

We look at various forms of spectrum and associated pseudospectrum that can be defined for noncommuting $d$-tuples of Hermitian elements of a $C^*$-algebra. The emphasis is on theoretical calculations of examples, in particular for…

We treat spectral problems by twisted groupoid methods. To Hausdorff locally compact groupoids endowed with a continuous $2$-cocycle one associates the reduced twisted groupoid $C^*$-algebra. Elements (or multipliers) of this algebra admit…

We investigate the closed convex hull of unitary orbits of selfadjoint elements in arbitrary unital C*-algebras. Using a notion of majorization against unbounded traces, a characterization of these closed convex hulls is obtained.…

We define C*-algebras on a Fock space such that the Hamiltonians of quantum field models with positive mass are affiliated to them. We describe the quotient of such algebras with respect to the ideal of compact operators and deduce…

We consider the variety of spectral measures that are induced by quasitraces on the spectrum of a self-adjoint operator in a simple separable unital and Z-stable C$^*$-algebra. This amounts to a continuous map from the simplex of…

In this work, we focus on the multiplicity of singular spectrum for operators of the form $A^\omega=A+\sum_{n}\omega_n C_n$ on a separable Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, for a self-adjoint operator $A$ and a countable collection $\{C_n\}_{n}$…

We isolate a large class of self-adjoint operators H whose essential spectrum is determined by their behavior at large x and we give a canonical representation of their essential spectrum in terms of spectra of limits at infinity of…

We consider commutative C* -algebras of Toeplitz operators in the weighted Bergman space on the unit ball in $\mathbb{C}^{\mathbf{n}}$. For the algebras of elliptic type we find a new representation, namely as the algebra of operators which…

The problem of expressing a selfadjoint element that is zero on every bounded trace as a finite sum (or a limit of sums) of commutators is investigated in the setting of C*-algebras of finite nuclear dimension. Upper bounds -- in terms of…

Let A(x) be a holomorphic family of bounded self-adjoint operators on a separable Hilbert space H and let A(x)_n be the orthogonal compressions of A(x) to the span of first n elements of an orthonormal basis of H. The problem considered…

In the classical operator theory, there are several versions of spectra, related to special classes of operators (Fredholm, semi-Fredholm, upper/lower semi-Fredholm,etc.). We generalize these notions for adjointable operators on Hilbert…

We compare two C*-algebras that have been used to study the essential spectrum. This is done by considering a simple second order elliptic differential operator acting in L^2(R^N), which is affiliated with one or both of the algebras…

We show that the $C^*$-algebra generated by the field operators associated to a symplectic space $\Xi$ is graded by the semilattice of all finite dimensional subspaces of $\Xi$. If $\Xi$ is finite dimensional we give a simple intrinsic…

RO*-algebras are defined and studied. For RO*-algebra T, using properties of partial order, it is established that the set of bounded elements can be endowed with C*-norm. The structure of commutative subalgebras of T is considered and the…

We consider a class of C*-algebras C(X) associated with quantum spaces such as spheres, projective spaces, and lens spaces. We introduce a non-self-adjoint operator algebra A together with an explicit functor from the category of…
