The paper concerns the identification of projective closed ideals of C*-algebras. We prove that, if a C*-algebra has the property that every closed left ideal is projective, then the same is true for all its commutative C*-subalgebras. Further, we say a Banach algebra A is hereditarily projective if every closed left ideal of A is projective. As a corollary of the stated result we show that no infinite-dimensional AW*-algebra is hereditarily projective. We also prove that, for a commutative C*-algebra A contained in [Bscr ](H), where H is a separable Hilbert space, the following conditions are equivalent: (i) A is separable; and (ii) the C*-tensor product A [otimes ]minA is hereditarily projective. Howerever, there is a non-separable, hereditarily projective, commutative C*-algebra A contained in [Bscr ](H), where H is a separable Hilbert space.

Abstract For a locally compact Hausdorff space X and a C*-algebra A with only finitely many closed ideals, we discuss a characterization of closed ideals of C0(X,A) in terms of closed ideals of A and a class of closed subspaces of X. We further use this result to prove that a closed ideal of C0(X)⊗minA is a finite sum of product ideals. We also establish that for a unital C*-algebra A, C0(X,A) has the centre-quotient property if and only if A has the centre-quotient property. As an application, we characterize the closed Lie ideals of C0(X,A) and identify all the closed Lie ideals of HC0(X)⊗minB(H), H being a separable Hilbert space.

AbstractIn this paper we consider the following problem: Given a unital C*- algebra A and a collection of elements S in the identity component of the invertible group of A, denoted inv0(A), characterize the group of finite products of elements of S. The particular C*-algebras studied in this paper are either unital purely infinite simple or of the form (A ⊗ K)+, where A is any C*-algebra and K is the compact operators on an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space. The types of elements used in the factorizations are unipotents (1+ nilpotent), positive invertibles and symmetries (s2 = 1). First we determine the groups of finite products for each collection of elements in (A ⊗ K)+. Then we give upper bounds on the number of factors needed in these cases. The main result, which uses results for (A ⊗ K)+, is that for A unital purely infinite and simple, inv0(A) is generated by each of these collections of elements.

We construct stabilized $C^*$-algebras from subshifts by using the dynamical property of the symbolic dynamical systems. We prove that the construction is dynamical and the $C^*$-algebras are isomorphic to the tensor product $C^*$-algebras between the algebra of all compact operators on a separable Hilbert space and the $C^*$-algebras constructed from creation operators on sub-Fock spaces associated with the subshifts. We also prove that the gauge actions on the stabilized $C^*$-algebras are invariant for topological conjugacy as two-sided subshifts under some conditions. Hence, if two subshifts are topologically conjugate as two-sided subshifts, the associated stabilized $C^*$-algebras are isomorphic so that their K-groups are isomorphic.

AbstractLet A be a C*-algebra and K the C*-algebra of all compact operators on a countably infinite dimensional Hilbert space. In this note, we shall show that there is an isomorphism of a semigroup of equivalence classes of certain partial automorphisms of A ⊗ K onto a semigroup of equivalence classes of certain countably generated A-A-Hilbert bimodules.

In topology, the representable K-theory of a topological space X is defined by the formulas RK0(X) = [X,Z x BU] and RKl(X) = [X, U], where square brackets denote sets of homotopy classes of continuous maps, is the infinite unitary group, and BU is a classifying space for U. (Note that ZxBU is homotopy equivalent to the space of Fredholm operators on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space.) These sets of homotopy classes are made into abelian groups by using the H-group structures on Z x BU and U. In this paper, we give analogous formulas for the representable K-theory for α-C*-algebras defined in [20].

The theory of noncommutative involutive Banach algebras (briefly Banach *-algebras) owes its origin to Gelfand and Naimark, who proved in 1943 the fundamental representation theorem that a Banach *-algebra with C*-condition(C*)is *-isomorphic and isometric to a norm-closed self-adjoint subalgebra of all bounded operators on a suitable Hilbert space.At the same time they conjectured that the C*-condition can be replaced by the B*-condition.(B*)In other words any B*-algebra is actually a C*-algebra. This was shown by Glimm and Kadison [5] in 1960.

AbstractWe propose a functional version of the Hodrick–Prescott filter for functional data which take values in an infinite-dimensional separable Hilbert space. We further characterize the associated optimal smoothing operator when the associated linear operator is compact and the underlying distribution of the data is Gaussian.

AbstractWe present an infinite-dimensional version of Cartan's theorem concerning the existence of a holomorphic inverse of a given holomorphic self-map of a bounded convex open subset of a dual Banach space. No separability is assumed, contrary to previous analogous results. The main assumption is that the derivative operator is power bounded, and which we, in turn, show to be diagonalizable in some cases, like the separable Hilbert space.

In this paper we present a construction of an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space associated with a norm induced from the Lévy trace. The space is slightly different from the Cesàro Hilbert space introduced in Ref. 1. The Lévy Laplacian is discussed with a suitable domain which is constructed by a rigging of Fock spaces based on a rigging of Hilbert spaces with the Lévy trace. Then the Lévy Laplacian can be considered as the Gross Laplacian acting on a certain countable Hilbert space. By constructing one-parameter group of operators of which the infinitesimal generator is the Lévy Laplacian, we study the existence and uniqueness of solution of heat equation associated with the Lévy Laplacian. Moreover we give an infinite dimensional stochastic process generated by the Lévy Laplacian.

AbstractWe show that the involution $\theta(a\otimes b)=a^*\otimes b^*$ on the Haagerup tensor product $A\otimes_{\mrm{H}}B$ of $C^*$-algebras $A$ and $B$ is an isometry if and only if $A$ and $B$ are commutative. The involutive Banach algebra $A\otimes_{\mrm{H}}A$ arising from the involution $a\otimes b\to b^*\otimes a^*$ is also studied.AMS 2000 Mathematics subject classification: Primary 46L05; 46M05
