Order unit property of a positive element in a $C^{*}$-algebra is defined. It is proved that precisely projections satisfy this order theoretic property. This way, unital hereditary $C^{*}$-subalgebras of a $C^{*}$-algebra are…

If $\H$ is a Hilbert space, $A$ is a positive bounded linear operator on $\cH$ and $\cS$ is a closed subspace of $\cH$, the relative position between $\cS$ and $A^{-1}(\cS \orto)$ establishes a notion of compatibility. We show that the…

We study (two-sided) ideals $I$ in the enveloping algebra $\U(\frak g_\infty)$ of an infinite-dimensional Lie algebra $\frak g_\infty$ obtained as the union (equivalently, direct limit) of an arbitrary chain of embeddings of simple…

We study in this paper the infinite-dimensional orthogonal Lie algebra $\mathcal{O}_C$ which consists of all bounded linear operators $T$ on a separable, infinite-dimensional, complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ satisfying $CTC=-T^*$, where…

We study the closure of the unitary orbit of a given point in the non-commutative Choquet boundary of a unital operator space with respect to the topology of pointwise norm convergence. This may be described more extensively as the…

An ideal of polynomials is symmetric if it is closed under permutations of variables. We relate general symmetric ideals to the so called Specht ideals generated by all Specht polynomials of a given shape. We show a connection between the…

We prove that the class of principal coactions is closed under one-surjective pullbacks in an appropriate category of algebras equipped with left and right coactions. This allows us to handle cases of C*-algebras lacking two different…

In the framework of operator theory, we investigate a close Lie theoretic relationship between all operator ideals and certain classical groups of invertible operators that can be described as the solution sets of certain algebraic…

We examine rigidity phenomena for representations of amenable operator algebras which have an ideal of compact operators. We establish that a generalized version of Kadison's conjecture on completely bounded homomorphisms holds for the…

The residual finite-dimensionality of a $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebra is known to be encoded in a topological property of its space of representations, stating that finite-dimensional representations should be dense therein. We extend this…

Suppose $X$ is a real or complexified Banach space containing a complemented copy of $\ell_p$, $p\in(1,2)$, and a copy (not necessarily complemented) of either $\ell_q$, $q\in(p,\infty)$, or $c_0$. Then $\mathcal{L}(X)$ and…

Answering questions raised in \cite{Leonetti, Uzcategui} we characterize ideals $\mathcal I\subseteq \mathcal P(\omega)$ such that $c_{0,\mathcal I}$ is complemented in $\ell_\infty$ as exactly those ideals for which the space $K_{\mathcal…

It has been established by Inoue that a complex locally C*-algebra with a dense ideal posesses a bounded approximate identity which belonges to that ideal. It has been shown by Fritzsche that if a unital complex locally C*-algebra has an…

In this paper, we study the ideal structure of reduced $C^*$-algebras $C^*_r(G)$ associated to \'etale groupoids $G$. In particular, we characterize when there is a one-to-one correspondence between the closed, two-sided ideals in…

Let $X$ be a completely regular topological space. We assign to each (set theoretic) ideal of $X$ an (algebraic) ideal of $C_B(X)$, the normed algebra of continuous bounded complex valued mappings on $X$ equipped with the supremum norm. We…

Most of this article is an expanded version of our conference talk. It is essentially a survey, but some part, like most of the lengthy Section 5, is comprised of new results whose proofs are unpublished elsewhere. We begin by reviewing the…

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…

We study two classes of operator algebras associated with a unital subsemigroup $P$ of a discrete group $G$: one related to universal structures, and one related to co-universal structures. First we provide connections between universal…

Some completely positive maps on reduced amalgamated free products of C*-algebras are constructed; these allow a proof that the class of exact unital C*-algebras is closed under taking reduced amalgamated free products. Consequently, the…

We give a complete description of which unital graph C*-algebras are semiprojective, and use it to disprove two conjectures by Blackadar. To do so, we perform a detailed analysis of which projections are properly infinite in such…
