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]
Exponentiating derivations of quasi∗-algebras: possible approaches and applications
2005
The problem of exponentiating derivations of quasi∗-algebras is considered in view of applying it to the determination of the time evolution of a physical system. The particular case where observables constitute a properCQ∗-algebra is analyzed.
