Boundary quotients and ideals of Toeplitz C∗-algebras of Artin groups
2006
We study the quotients of the Toeplitz C*-algebra of a quasi-lattice ordered group (G,P), which we view as crossed products by a partial actions of G on closed invariant subsets of a totally disconnected compact Hausdorff space, the Nica spectrum of (G,P). Our original motivation and our main examples are drawn from right-angled Artin groups, but many of our results are valid for more general quasi-lattice ordered groups. We show that the Nica spectrum has a unique minimal closed invariant subset, which we call the boundary spectrum, and we define the boundary quotient to be the crossed product of the corresponding restricted partial action. The main technical tools used are the results of …
Biweights on Partial *-Algebras
2000
This chapter is devoted to the systematic investigation of biweights on partial *-algebras. These are a generalization of invariant positive sesquilinear forms that still allows a Gel’fand—Naĭmark—Segal (GNS) construction of representations. In Section 9.1, we apply this GNS construction for biweights and we obtain *-representations and cyclic vector representations of partial *-algebras, and we give some examples of biweights. Section 9.2 is devoted to the investigation of the Radon—Nikodým theorem and the Lebesgue decomposition theorem for biweights on partial *-algebras. In Section 9.3, we define regular and singular biweights on partial *-algebras and we characterize them with help of t…
The snail lemma for internal groupoids
2019
Abstract We establish a generalized form both of the Gabriel-Zisman exact sequence associated with a pointed functor between pointed groupoids, and of the Brown exact sequence associated with a fibration of pointed groupoids. Our generalization consists in replacing pointed groupoids with groupoids internal to a pointed regular category with reflexive coequalizers.
A Path-Integral Approach to the Cameron-Martin-Maruyama-Girsanov Formula Associated to a Bilaplacian
2012
We define the Wiener product on a bosonic Connes space associated to a Bilaplacian and we introduce formal Wiener chaos on the path space. We consider the vacuum distribution on the bosonic Connes space and show that it is related to the heat semigroup associated to the Bilaplacian. We deduce a Cameron-Martin quasi-invariance formula for the heat semigroup associated to the Bilaplacian by using some convenient coherent vector. This paper enters under the Hida-Streit approach of path integral.
Unbounded C$^*$-seminorms and $*$-Representations of Partial *-Algebras
2009
The main purpose of this paper is to construct *-representations from unbounded C*-seminorms on partial *-algebras and to investigate their *-representations. © Heldermann Verlag.
Rigged Hilbert spaces and contractive families of Hilbert spaces
2013
The existence of a rigged Hilbert space whose extreme spaces are, respectively, the projective and the inductive limit of a directed contractive family of Hilbert spaces is investigated. It is proved that, when it exists, this rigged Hilbert space is the same as the canonical rigged Hilbert space associated to a family of closable operators in the central Hilbert space.
Gibbs states, algebraic dynamics and generalized Riesz systems
2020
In PT-quantum mechanics the generator of the dynamics of a physical system is not necessarily a self-adjoint Hamiltonian. It is now clear that this choice does not prevent to get a unitary time evolution and a real spectrum of the Hamiltonian, even if, most of the times, one is forced to deal with biorthogonal sets rather than with on orthonormal basis of eigenvectors. In this paper we consider some extended versions of the Heisenberg algebraic dynamics and we relate this analysis to some generalized version of Gibbs states and to their related KMS-like conditions. We also discuss some preliminary aspects of the Tomita-Takesaki theory in our context.
A C0-Semigroup of Ulam Unstable Operators
2020
The Ulam stability of the composition of two Ulam stable operators has been investigated by several authors. Composition of operators is a key concept when speaking about C0-semigroups. Examples of C0-semigroups formed with Ulam stable operators are known. In this paper, we construct a C0-semigroup (Rt)t&ge
Some representation theorems for sesquilinear forms
2016
The possibility of getting a Radon-Nikodym type theorem and a Lebesgue-like decomposition for a non necessarily positive sesquilinear $\Omega$ form defined on a vector space $\mathcal D$, with respect to a given positive form $\Theta$ defined on $\D$, is explored. The main result consists in showing that a sesquilinear form $\Omega$ is $\Theta$-regular, in the sense that it has a Radon-Nikodym type representation, if and only if it satisfies a sort Cauchy-Schwarz inequality whose right hand side is implemented by a positive sesquilinear form which is $\Theta$-absolutely continuous. In the particular case where $\Theta$ is an inner product in $\mathcal D$, this class of sesquilinear form cov…
Analysis of geometric operators on open manifolds: A groupoid approach
2001
The first five sections of this paper are a survey of algebras of pseudodifferential operators on groupoids. We thus review differentiable groupoids, the definition of pseudodifferential operators on groupoids, and some of their properties. We use then this background material to establish a few new results on these algebras, results that are useful for the analysis of geometric operators on non-compact manifolds and singular spaces. The first step is to establish that the geometric operators on groupoids are in our algebras. This then leads to criteria for the Fredholmness of geometric operators on suitable non-compact manifolds, as well as to an inductive procedure to study their essentia…
