On derivations of algebras with involution

Summary Let X be a complex Hilbert space, let L(X) be the algebra of all bounded linear operators on X, and let A(X) ⊂ L(X) be a standard operator algebra, which is closed under the adjoint operation. Suppose there exists a linear mapping D: A(X) → L(X) satisfying the relation D(AA*A) = D(A) A*A + AD(A*)A + AA*D(A), for all A ∈ A(X). In this case D is of the form D(A) = AB-BA, for all A∈ A(X) and some B ∈ L(X), which means that D is a derivation. We apply this result to semisimple H*-algebras.

Some G-M-type Banach spaces and K-groups of operator algebras on them

By providing several new varieties of G-M-type Banach spaces according todecomposable and compoundable properties, this paper discusses the operator structuresof these spaces and the K-theory of the algebra of the operators on these G-M-type Ba-nach spaces through calculation of the K-groups of the operator ideals contained in theclass of Riesz operators.     

On K_0-groups of operator algebras on Banach spaces

This paper merges some classifications of G-M-type Banach spaces simplifically, discusses the condition of K0(B(X)) = 0 for operator algebra B(X) on a Banach space X, and obtains a result to improve Laustsen's sufficient condition, gives an example to show that X ≈ X2 is not a sufficient condition of K0(B(X)) = 0.     

关于素环导子的一些结论

设R是一个特征不等于2的不可交换的素环,d为R的一个导子,如果[xd,x]xd=0 对所有的x∈R都成立,那么d=0.进一步,如果对所有的x∈R,都有[[xd,x],xd]=0,那么d=0.     

Strong 3-commutativity preserving maps on standard operator algebras

Let X be a Banach space of dimension ≥ 2 over the real or complex field F and A a standard operator algebra in B(X). A map Φ :A →A is said to be strong 3-commutativity preserving if [Φ(A), Φ(B)]3 = [A,B]3 for all A,B∈ A, where[A,B]3 is the 3-commutator of A,B defined by[A, B]3 = [[[A, B],B],B] with [A,B] = AB-BA. The main result in this paper is shown that.,if Φ is a surjective map on A, then Φ is strong 3-commutativity preserving if and only if there exist a functional h : A →F and a scalar λ∈ F with λ~4 = 1 such that Φ(A)=λ A+h(A)I for all A ∈ A.     

Fixed point theorems of block operator matrices on Banach algebras and an application to functional integral equations

In this paper, we study some fixed point theorems of a 2 × 2 block operator matrix defined on nonempty bounded closed convex subsets of Banach algebras, where the entries are nonlinear operators. Furthermore, we apply the obtained results to a coupled system of nonlinear equations. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Local automorphisms of standard operator algebras

Let X be an infinite-dimensional separable real or complex Banach space and A a closed standard operator algebra on X. Then every local automorphism of A is an automorphism. The assumptions of infinite-dimensionality, separability, and closeness are all indispensable.     

Jordan generalized derivations on triangular algebras

Let 𝒜 be a unital algebra and let ? be a unitary 𝒜-bimodule. We consider Jordan generalized derivations mapping from 𝒜 into ?. Our results on unitary algebras are applied to triangular algebras. In particular, we prove that any Jordan generalized derivation of a triangular algebra is a generalized derivation.     

A generalization of peripherally-multiplicative surjections between standard operator algebras

Let A and B be standard operator algebras on Banach spaces X and Y, respectively. The peripheral spectrum σ_π (T) of T is defined by σ_π (T) = z ∈ σ(T): |z| = max_w∈σ(T) |w|. If surjective (not necessarily linear nor continuous) maps φ, ϕ: A → B satisfy σ_π (φ(S)ϕ(T)) = σ_π (ST) for all S; T ∈ A, then φ and ϕ are either of the form φ(T) = A ₁ TA ₂ ⁻¹ and ϕ(T) = A ₂ TA ₁ ⁻¹ for some bijective bounded linear operators A ₁; A ₂ of X onto Y, or of the form φ(T) = B ₁ T*B ₂ ⁻¹ and ϕ(T) = B ₂ T*B ⁻¹ for some bijective bounded linear operators B ₁;B ₂ of X* onto Y.      

On the quest for positivity in operator algebras

We show that in every nonzero operator algebra with a contractive approximate identity (or c.a.i.), there is a nonzero operator T such that ‖I−T‖?1. In fact, there is a c.a.i. consisting of operators T with ‖I−2T‖?1. So, the numerical range of the elements of our contractive approximate identity is contained in the closed disk center and radius . This is the necessarily weakened form of the result for C^?-algebras, where there is always a contractive approximate identity consisting of operators with 0?T?1 - the numerical range is contained in the real interval [0,1]. So, if an operator algebra has a c.a.i., it must have operators with a “certain amount” of positivity.     

Jordan operator algebras revisited

Jordan operator algebras are norm‐closed spaces of operators on a Hilbert space with for all . In two recent papers by the authors and Neal, a theory for these spaces was developed. It was shown there that much of the theory of associative operator algebras, in particular, surprisingly much of the associative theory from several recent papers of the first author and coauthors, generalizes to Jordan operator algebras. In the present paper we complete this task, giving several results which generalize the associative case in these papers, relating to unitizations, real positivity, hereditary subalgebras, and a couple of other topics. We also solve one of the three open problems stated at the end of our earlier joint paper on Jordan operator algebras.     

On the simplicial cohomology of Banach operator algebras

We investigate the simplicial cohomology of certain Banach operator algebras. The two main examples considered are the Banach algebra of all bounded operators on a Banach space and its ideal of approximable operators. Sufficient conditions will be given forcing Banach algebras of this kind to be simplicially trivial.     

A Note on Commutators with Power Central Values on Lie Ideals

This note proves that, if R is a prime ring of characteristic 2 with d a derivation of R and L a noncentral Lie ideal of R such that [d（u）,u]^n is central, for all u ∈ L, then R must satisfy s4, the standard identity in 4 variables. The case where R is a semiprime ring is also examined by the authors. The results of the note improve Carini and Filippis＇s results.
