Bicommutant categories are higher categorical analogs of von Neumann algebras that were recently introduced by the first author. In this article, we prove that every unitary fusion category gives an example of a bicommutant category. This…

The main aim of this paper is to generalize the classical concept of positive operator, and to develop a general extension theory, which overcomes not only the lack of a Hilbert space structure, but also the lack of a normable topology. The…

To each finite-dimensional operator space $E$ is associated a commutative operator algebra $UC(E)$, so that $E$ embeds completely isometrically in $UC(E)$ and any completely contractive map from $E$ to bounded operators on Hilbert space…

Let E be a W*-algebra, H a selfdual Hilbert right E-module, L(H) the W*-algebra of adjointable operators on H, and F an involutive unital subalgebra of L(H). We prove that the double commutant of F is the W*-subalgebra of L(H) generated by…

We present some general theorems about operator algebras that are algebras of functions on sets, including theories of local algebras, residually finite dimensional operator algebras and algebras that can be represented as the scalar…

A certain class of matrix-valued Borel matrix functions is introduced and it is shown that all functions of that class naturally operate on any operator T in a finite type I von Neumann algebra M in a way such that uniformly bounded…

A classical theorem of von Neumann asserts that every unbounded self-adjoint operator $A$ in a separable Hilbert space $H$ is unitarily equivalent to an operator $B$ in $H$ such that $D(A)\cap D(B)=\{0\}$. Equivalently this can be…

We show that two operator algebras are strongly Morita equivalent (in the sense of Blecher, Muhly and Paulsen) if and only if their categories of operator modules are equivalent via completely contractive functors. Moreover, any such…

We call an operator algebra A {\em reversible} if A with reversed multiplication is also an abstract operator algebra (in the modern operator space sense). This class of operator algebras is intimately related to the {\em symmetric operator…

An algebraic extended bilinear Hilbert semispace is proposed as being the natural representation space for the algebras of von Neumann.This bilinear Hilbert semispace has a well defined structure given by the representation space of an…

It is shown that each linear operator on a separable Hilbert space which generates a finite type I von Neumann algebra has, up to unitary equivalence, a unique representation as a direct integral of inflations of mutually unitary…

A state-preserving automorphism of a von Neumann algebra induces a canonical unitary operator on the GNS Hilbert space of the state which fixes the vacuum. This unitary commutes with both the modular operator of the state and its modular…

We construct a class of representations of the Heisenberg algebra in terms of the complex shift operators subject to the proper continuous limit imposed by the correspondence principle. We find a suitable Hilbert space formulation of our…

Recently, we have shown that von Neumann algebras form a model for Selinger and Valiron's quantum lambda calculus. In this paper, we explain our choice of interpretation of the duplicability operator "!" by studying those von Neumann…

An $n$-tuple of operators $(V_1,...,V_n)$ acting on a Hilbert space $H$ is said to be isometric if the operator $[V_1\...\ V_n]:H^n\to H$ is an isometry. We prove a decomposition for an isometric tuple of operators that generalizes the…

We suppose that $G$ is a locally compact abelian group, $Y$ is a measure space, and $H$ is a reproducing kernel Hilbert space on $G\times Y$ such that $H$ is naturally embedded into $L^2(G\times Y)$ and it is invariant under the…

An operator algebra $\mathcal{A}$ acting on a Hilbert space is said to have the closability property if every densely defined linear transformation commuting with $\mathcal{A}$ is closable. In this paper we study the closability property of…

We give a spectral theorem for unital representations of Hermitian commutative unital *-algebras by possibly unbounded operators in a pre-Hilbert space. A better result is known for the case in which the *-algebra is countably generated.

Assuming that there exist operators which form an irreducible representation of the q-superoscillator algebra, it is proved that any two such representations are equivalent, related by a uniquely determined superunitary transformation. This…

An operator *-algebra is a non-selfadjoint operator algebra with completely isometric involution. We show that any operator *-algebra admits a faithful representation on a Hilbert space in such a way that the involution coincides with the…
