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 concentrate on the MF property of reduced free products of unital C*-algebras with amalgamation over finite dimensional C*-algebras. More specifically, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for a reduced free…
We develop a general theory of symmetry reduction of states on (possibly non-commutative) *-algebras that are equipped with a Poisson bracket and a Hamiltonian action of a commutative Lie algebra $g$. The key idea advocated for in this…
We explore transversals of finite index subgroups of finitely generated groups. We show that when $H$ is a subgroup of a rank $n$ group $G$ and $H$ has index at least $n$ in $G$ then we can construct a left transversal for $H$ which…
In this paper we consider C*-algebraic deformations a la Rieffel and show that every state of the undeformed algebra can be deformed into a state of the deformed algebra in the sense of a continuous field of states. The construction is…
Let $F$ be a field with at least three elements and $G$ a locally finite group. This paper aims to show that if either $F$ is algebraically closed or the characteristic of $F$ is positive, then an element in the group algebra $FG$ is a…
We prove a number of results having to do with equipping type-I $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras with compact quantum group structures, the two main ones being that such a compact quantum group is necessarily co-amenable, and that if the…
Given an action $\alpha$ of a discrete group $G$ on a unital C*-algebra $A$, we introduce a natural concept of $\alpha$-negative definiteness for functions from $G$ to $A$, and examine some of the first consequences of such a notion. In…
Let G be a reductive linear algebraic group over a field k. Let A be a finitely generated commutative k-algebra on which G acts rationally by k-algebra automorphisms. Invariant theory tells that the ring of invariants A^G=H^0(G,A) is…
Let $K$ be a field, and $A=K[a_1,\ldots ,a_n]$ a finitely generated $K$-algebra with the PBW $K$-basis ${\cal B}=\{a_{1}^{\alpha_1}\cdots a_{n}^{\alpha_n}~|~(\alpha_1,\ldots ,\alpha_n)\in\mathbb{N}^n\}$. It is shown that if $L$ is a nonzero…
We initiate the study of the internal structure of C*-algebras associated to a left cancellative semigroup in which any two principal right ideals are either disjoint or intersect in another principal right ideal; these are variously called…
For an element $g$ of a group $G$, a right Engel sink of $g$ is a subset of $G$ containing all sufficiently long commutators $[...[[g ,x],x],\dots ,x]$ for all $x\in G$. A left Engel sink of $g$ is a subset of $G$ containing all…
In this work we introduce a new succinct variant of the word problem in a finitely generated group $G$, which we call the power word problem: the input word may contain powers $p^x$, where $p$ is a finite word over generators of $G$ and $x$…
Suppose that a finite group $G$ admits a soluble group of coprime automorphisms $A$. We prove that if, for some positive integer $m$, every element of the centralizer $C_G(A )$ has a left Engel sink of cardinality at most $m$ (or a right…
Let $A$ be a homogeneous C*-algebra and $\phi$ a state on $A.$ We show that if $\phi$ satisfies a certain faithfulness condition, then there is a net of finite-rank, unital completely positive, $\phi$-preserving maps on $A$ that tend to the…
It is shown how to construct *-homomorphic quantum stochastic Feller cocycles for certain unbounded generators, and so obtain dilations of strongly continuous quantum dynamical semigroups on C* algebras; this generalises the construction of…
Let $K$ be a number field with ring of integers $R$. Given a modulus $\mathfrak{m}$ for $K$ and a group $\Gamma$ of residues modulo $\mathfrak{m}$, we consider the semi-direct product $R\rtimes R_{\mathfrak{m},\Gamma}$ obtained by…
We describe algebraic certificates of positivity for functions belonging to a finitely generated algebra of Borel measurable functions, with particular emphasis to algebras generated by semi-algebraic functions. In which case the standard…
The following refinement of the Higman embedding theorem is proved: A finitely generated group $R$ is recursively presented if and only if there exists a quasi-isometric malnormal embedding of $R$ into a finitely presented group $H$ such…
It is proved that for any natural number $n$ the subalgebra of a free finitely generated alternative algebra generated by all the words on generators whose length is a multiple of $n$ (the Veronese $n$-subalgebra), is finitely generated.
