AbstractSuppose A is a unital C*-algebra and m:A → B(X) is unital bounded algebra homomorphism where B(X) is the algebra of all operators on a Banach space X. When X is a Hilbert space, a problem of Kadison [9] asks whether m is similar to a *-homomorphism. Haagerup [5] has shown that the answer is positive when m(A) has a cyclic vector or whenever m is completely bounded. We use this to show m(A) is reflexive (Alg Lat m(A) = m(A)−sot) whenever X is a Hilbert space. Our main result is that whenever A is a separable GCR C*-algebra and X is a reflexive Banach space, then m(A) is reflexive.

For Hilbert spaces [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], we use the notations [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] to denote the sets of all [Formula: see text]-Bessel sequences, [Formula: see text]-frames and Riesz bases in [Formula: see text] with respect to [Formula: see text], respectively. By defining a linear operation and a norm, we prove that [Formula: see text] becomes a Banach space and is isometrically isomorphic to the operator space [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text]. In light of operator theory, it is proved that [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are open sets in [Formula: see text]. This implies that both [Formula: see text]-frames and Riesz bases are stable under a small perturbation. By introducing a linear bijection [Formula: see text] from [Formula: see text] onto the [Formula: see text]-algebra [Formula: see text], a multiplication and an involution on the Banach space [Formula: see text] are defined so that [Formula: see text] becomes a unital [Formula: see text]-algebra that is isometrically isomorphic to the [Formula: see text]-algebra [Formula: see text], provided that [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are isomorphic.

We consider a quantum system described by a concrete C*-algebra acting on a Hilbert space ℋ with a vector state ω induced by a cyclic vector Ω and a unitary evolution Ut such that UtΩ = Ω, ∀t ∈ ℝ. It is proved that this vector state is a ground state if and only if it is non-faithful and completely passive. This version of a result of Pusz and Woronowicz is reviewed, emphasizing other related aspects: passivity from the point of view of moving observers and stability with respect to local perturbations of the dynamics.

AbstractA. Grothendieck has shown that if the space C(X) is a Banach dual then X is hyperstonean; moreover, the predual of C(X) is strongly unique. In this article we give a vector analogue of Grothendieck's result. We show that if E* is a reflexive Banach space and C(X, (E*, σ*)) denotes the space of continuous functions on X to E* when E* is provided with its weak* (= weak) topology then the full content of Grothendieck's theorem for C(X) can be established for C(X,(E*,σ*)). This improves a result previously obtained for the case in which E* is Hilbert space.

In a recent paper, Sato [6] has shown that for every Gaussian measure n on a real separable or reflexive Banach space (X, ‖ • ‖) there exists a separable closed sub-space X〵 of X such that and is the σ-extension of the canonical Gaussian cylinder measure of a real separable Hilbert space such that the norm is contiunous on and is dense in The main purpose of this note is to prove that ‖ • ‖ x〵 is measurable (and not merely continuous) on .

1. In this paper, we investigate the ranges of projections on certain Banach spaces of functions defined on a diadic tree. The notion of a “tree-like” Banach space is due to James 4], who used it to construct the separable space JT which has nonseparable dual and yet does not contain l1. This idea has proved useful. In [3], Hagler constructed a hereditarily c0 tree space, HT, and Schechtman [6] constructed, for each 1 ≦ p ≦ ∞, a reflexive Banach space, STp with a 1-unconditional basis which does not contain lp yet is uniformly isomorphic to for each n.In [1] we showed that if U is a bounded linear operator on JT, then there exists a subspace W ⊂ JT, isomorphic to JT such that either U or (1 — U) acts as an isomorphism on W and UW or (1 — U)W is complemented in JT. In this paper, we establish this result for the Hagler and Schechtman tree spaces.

In this paper we adopt the notion of orthogonality in Banach spaces introduced by the author in [6]. There, the author showed that in any two-dimensional subspace F of E, every nonzero element admits at most one orthogonal direction. The problem of existence of such orthogonal direction was not addressed before. Our main purpose in this paper is the investigation of this problem in the case where E is a real Banach space. As a result we obtain a characterisation of Hilbert spaces stating that, if in every two-dimensional subspace F of E every nonzero element admits an orthogonal direction, then E is isometric to a Hilbert space. We conclude by presenting some open problems.

Suppose M be the projective limit of weak symplectic Banach manifolds {(Mi, ϕij)}i, j∈ℕ, where Mi are modeled over reflexive Banach space and σ is compatible with the projective system (defined in the article). We associate to each point x ∈ M, a Fréchet space Hx. We prove that if Hx are locally identical, then with certain smoothness and boundedness condition, there exists a Darboux chart for the weak symplectic structure.

AbstractLet K be any compact set. The C*-algebra C(K) is nuclear and any bounded homomorphism from C(K) into B(H), the algebra of all bounded operators on some Hilbert space H, is automatically completely bounded. We prove extensions of these results to the Banach space setting, using the key concept ofR-boundedness. Then we apply these results to operators with a uniformly bounded H∞-calculus, as well as to unconditionality on Lp. We show that any unconditional basis on Lp ‘is’ an unconditional basis on L2 after an appropriate change of density.
