Notes on the nuclearity of random subalgebras of O2{\mathcal {O}_2}

There exists a separable exact C*-algebra A which contains all separable exact C*-algebras as subalgebras, and for each norm-dense measure μ on A and independent μ-distributed random elements x ₁, x ₂, ... we have . Further, there exists a norm-dense non-atomic probability measure μ on the Cuntz algebra such that for an independent sequence x ₁, x ₂, ... of μ-distributed random elements x _i we have . We introduce the notion of the stochastic rank for a unital C*-algebra and prove that the stochastic rank of C([0, 1] ^d ) is d. B.

THE FUNDAMENTAL GROUP OF THE AUTOMORPHISM GROUP OF A NONCOMMUTATIVE TORUS THE FUNDAMENTAL GROUP OF THE AUTOMORPHISM GROUP OF A NONCOMMUTATIVE TORUS

1. IntroductionGiven a locally compact abelian group G and a multiplier p on G, one can associate tothem the twisted group C*-algebra C*(G, p), which is the universal object for unitary prepresentations of G. C* (Zm, p) is said to be a noncommutative torns of rank m and denotedby A.. The multiplier p determines a subgroup S. of G, called its symmetry group, andthe multiplier p is called totally skew if the symmetry group S. is trivial. And A. is calledcompletely irrational if p is totally…     

Topological *-algebras withC*-enveloping algebras II

UniversalC*-algebrasC*(A) exist for certain topological *-algebras called algebras with aC*-enveloping algebra. A Frechet *-algebraA has aC*-enveloping algebra if and only if every operator representation ofA mapsA into bounded operators. This is proved by showing that every unbounded operator representation π, continuous in the uniform topology, of a topological *-algebraA, which is an inverse limit of Banach *-algebras, is a direct sum of bounded operator representations, thereby factoring through the enveloping pro-C*-algebraE(A) ofA. Given aC*-dynamical system (G,A,α), any topological *-algebraB containingC _c (G,A) as a dense *-subalgebra and contained in the crossed productC*-algebraC*(G,A,α) satisfiesE(B) =C*(G,A,α). IfG = ℝ, ifB is an α-invariant dense Frechet *-subalgebra ofA such thatE(B) =A, and if the action α onB ism-tempered, smooth and by continuous *-automorphisms: then the smooth Schwartz crossed productS(ℝ,B,α) satisfiesE(S(ℝ,B,α)) =C*(ℝ,A,α). WhenG is a Lie group, theC ^∞-elementsC ^∞(A), the analytic elementsC ^ω(A) as well as the entire analytic elementsC ^є(A) carry natural topologies making them algebras with aC*-enveloping algebra. Given a non-unitalC*-algebraA, an inductive system of idealsI _α is constructed satisfyingA =C*-ind limI _α; and the locally convex inductive limit ind limI _α is anm-convex algebra with theC*-enveloping algebraA and containing the Pedersen idealK _a ofA. Given generatorsG with weakly Banach admissible relationsR, we construct universal topological *-algebraA(G, R) and show that it has aC*-enveloping algebra if and only if (G, R) isC*-admissible.

A bott periodicity map for crossed products of C*-algebras by discrete groups

A generalization is given of the canonical map from a discrete group into K ₁ of the group C ^*-algebra. Our map also generalizes Rieffel's construction of a projection in an irrational rotation C ^*-algebra.     

Approximately Linear Mappings in Banach Modules over a C^＊-algebra

Let X and Y be vector spaces. The authors show that a mapping f ： X →Y satisfies the functional equation 2d f（∑^2d j=1（-1）^j＋1xj/2d）=∑^2dj=1（-1）^j＋1f（xj） with f（0） = 0 if and only if the mapping f ： X→ Y is Cauchy additive, and prove the stability of the functional equation （≠） in Banach modules over a unital C^＊-algebra, and in Poisson Banach modules over a unital Poisson C＊-algebra. Let A and B be unital C^＊-algebras, Poisson C^＊-algebras or Poisson JC^＊- algebras. As an application, the authors show that every almost homomorphism h ： A →B of A into is a homomorphism when h（（2d-1）^nuy） =- h（（2d-1）^nu）h（y） or h（（2d-1）^nuoy） = h（（2d-1）^nu）oh（y） for all unitaries u ∈A, all y ∈ A, n = 0, 1, 2,.... Moreover, the authors prove the stability of homomorphisms in C^＊-algebras, Poisson C^＊-algebras or Poisson JC^＊-algebras.     

Equivalence Bimodule Between Non-Commutative Tori

The non-commutative torus C ^*(ⁿ,) is realized as the C*-algebra of sections of a locally trivial C*-algebra bundle over S with fibres isomorphic to C ^*n/S, ₁) for a totally skew multiplier ₁ on ⁿ/S. D. Poguntke [9] proved that A is stably isomorphic to C(S) C(^*( Zⁿ/S, ₁) C(S) A M_kl( C) for a simple non-commutative torus A and an integer kl. It is well-known that a stable isomorphism of two separable C*-algebras is equivalent to the existence of equivalence bimodule between them. We construct an A-C(S) A-equivalence bimodule.     

Dilations,Product Systems,and Weak Dilations

We generalize Bhat's construction of product systems of Hilbert spaces from E₀-semigroups on B(H) for some Hilbert space H to the construction of product systems of Hilbert modules from E₀-semigroups on B^a(E) for some Hilbert module E. As a byproduct we find the representation theory for B^a(E) if E has a unit vector. We establish a necessary and sufficient criterion for the conditional expectation generated by the unit vector to define a weak dilation of a CP-semigroup in the sense of [1]. Finally, we also show that white noises on general von Neumann algebras in the sense of [2] can be extended to white noises on a Hilbert module.     

Equivalence of the C*-Algebras qℂ and C 0(ℝ2) in the Asymptotic Category

The results of Kasparov, Connes, Higson, and Loring imply the coincidence of the functors [[qℂ ⊗ K, B ⊗ K]] = [[C ₀(ℝ²) ⊗ K, B ⊗ K]] for any C*-algebra B; here[[A, B]] denotes the set of homotopy classes of asymptotic homomorphisms from A to B. Inthe paper, this assertion is strengthened; namely, it is shown that the algebras qℂ ⊗ K and C ₀(ℝ²) ⊗ K are equivalent in the category whose objects are C*-algebras and morphisms are classes of homotopic asymptotic homomorphisms. Some geometric properties of the obtained equivalence are studied. Namely, the algebras qℂ ⊗ K and C ₀(ℝ²) ⊗ K are represented as fields of C*-algebras; it is proved that the equivalence is not fiber-preserving, i.e., is does not take fibers to fibers. It is also proved that the algebras under consideration are not homotopy equivalent.__________Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, vol. 77, no. 5, 2005, pp. 788–796.Original Russian Text Copyright ©2005 by T.

Enveloping Σ-C *-algebra of a smooth Frechet algebra crossed product by ℝ,K-theory and differential structure inC *-algebras

Given anm-tempered strongly continuous action α of ℝ by continuous^*-automorphisms of a Frechet^*-algebraA, it is shown that the enveloping ↡-C ^*-algebraE(S(ℝ, A^∞, α)) of the smooth Schwartz crossed productS(ℝ,A ^∞, α) of the Frechet algebra A^∞ of C^∞-elements ofA is isomorphic to the Σ-C ^*-crossed productC ^*(ℝ,E(A), α) of the enveloping Σ-C ^*-algebraE(A) ofA by the induced action. WhenA is a hermitianQ-algebra, one getsK-theory isomorphismRK _*(S(ℝ, A^∞, α)) =K ^*(C ^*(ℝ,E(A), α) for the representableK-theory of Frechet algebras. An application to the differential structure of aC ^*-algebra defined by densely defined differential seminorms is given.     

K-Theory of Stable Generalized Operator Algebras

It is proved that algebraic and topological K-functors are isomorphic on the category of stable generalized operator algebras which are K _i -regular for all i > 0.     

TheK-theory of AF embeddings of the rational rotation algebras

Our main result is the construction of an embedding ofC(T²) into an approximately finite-dimensionalC ^*-algebra which induces an injection onK ₀(C(T²)). The existence of this embedding implies that Cech cohomology cannot be extended to a stable, continuous homology theory forC ^*-algebras which admits a well-behaved Chern character. Homotopy properties ofC ^*-algebras are also considered. For example, we show that the second homotopy functor forC ^*-algebras is discontinuous. Similar embeddings are constructed for all the rational rotation algebras, with the consequence that none of the rational rotation algebras satisfies the homotopy property called semiprojectivity.

Non-Pointed Strongly Protomodular Theories

We give criterions for strong protomodularity and prove that the strong protomodularity of an algebraic theory is inherited by its models in a category with finite limits. We give examples of strongly protomodular theories with several constants: C ^*-algebras, rings, Heyting algebras and Boolean algebras.     

Automatic continuity of biorthogonality preservers between compact C-algebras and von Neumann algebras

We prove that every biorthogonality preserving linear surjection between two dual or compact C^?-algebras or between two von Neumann algebras is automatically continuous.     

On locally <Emphasis Type=Italic>A</Emphasis>-convex <Emphasis Type=Italic>H</Emphasis>*-algebras

We endow any proper A-convex H*-algebra (E, τ) with a locally pre-C*-topology. The latter is equivalent to that introduced by the pre C*-norm given by Ptàk function when (E, τ) is a Q-algebra. We also prove that the algebra of complex numbers is the unique proper locally A-convex H*-algebra which is barrelled and Q-algebra.
