Structure of locally convex quasi C * -algebras
2008
There are examples of C*-algebras A that accept a locally convex *-topology τ coarser than the given one, such that Ã[τ] (the completion of A with respect to τ) is a GB*-algebra. The multiplication of A[τ] may be or not be jointly continuous. In the second case, Ã[*] may fail being a locally convex *-algebra, but it is a partial *-algebra. In both cases the structure and the representation theory of Ã[τ] are investigated. If Ã+ τ denotes the τ-closure of the positive cone A+ of the given C*-algebra A, then the property Ā+ τ ∩ (-Ā+ τ) = {0} is decisive for the existence of certain faithful *-representations of the corresponding *-algebra Ã[τ]
Fully representable and*-semisimple topological partial*-algebras
2012
We continue our study of topological partial *-algebras, focusing our attention to *-semisimple partial *-algebras, that is, those that possess a {multiplication core} and sufficiently many *-representations. We discuss the respective roles of invariant positive sesquilinear (ips) forms and representable continuous linear functionals and focus on the case where the two notions are completely interchangeable (fully representable partial *-algebras) with the scope of characterizing a *-semisimple partial *-algebra. Finally we describe various notions of bounded elements in such a partial *-algebra, in particular, those defined in terms of a positive cone (order bounded elements). The outcome …
Bounded elements of C*-inductive locally convex spaces
2013
The notion of bounded element of C*-inductive locally convex spaces (or C*-inductive partial *-algebras) is introduced and discussed in two ways: The first one takes into account the inductive structure provided by certain families of C*-algebras; the second one is linked to the natural order of these spaces. A particular attention is devoted to the relevant instance provided by the space of continuous linear maps acting in a rigged Hilbert space.
Operators in Rigged Hilbert spaces: some spectral properties
2014
A notion of resolvent set for an operator acting in a rigged Hilbert space $\D \subset \H\subset \D^\times$ is proposed. This set depends on a family of intermediate locally convex spaces living between $\D$ and $\D^\times$, called interspaces. Some properties of the resolvent set and of the corresponding multivalued resolvent function are derived and some examples are discussed.
Locally convex quasi C*-algebras and noncommutative integration
2015
In this paper we continue the analysis undertaken in a series of previous papers on structures arising as completions of C*-algebras under topologies coarser that their norm and we focus our attention on the so-called {\em locally convex quasi C*-algebras}. We show, in particular, that any strongly *-semisimple locally convex quasi C*-algebra $(\X,\Ao)$, can be represented in a class of noncommutative local $L^2$-spaces.
Bounded elements in certain topological partial *-algebras
2011
We continue our study of topological partial *algebras, focusing our attention to the interplay between the various partial multiplications. The special case of partial *-algebras of operators is examined first, in particular the link between the strong and the weak multiplications, on one hand, and invariant positive sesquilinear (ips) forms, on the other. Then the analysis is extended to abstract topological partial *algebras, emphasizing the crucial role played by appropriate bounded elements, called $\M$-bounded. Finally, some remarks are made concerning representations in terms of the so-called partial GC*-algebras of operators.
Banach partial *-algebras: an overview
2019
A Banach partial $*$-algebra is a locally convex partial $*$-algebra whose total space is a Banach space. A Banach partial $*$-algebra is said to be of type (B) if it possesses a generating family of multiplier spaces that are also Banach spaces. We describe the basic properties of these objects and display a number of examples, namely, $L^p$-like function spaces and spaces of operators on Hilbert scales or lattices. Finally we analyze the important cases of Banach quasi $*$-algebras and $CQ^*$-algebras.
