Partial *-algebras of closable operators: A review
1996
This paper reviews the theory of partial *-algebras of closable operators in Hilbert space (partial O*-algebras), with some emphasis on partial GW*-algebras. First we discuss the general properties and the various types of partial *-algebras and partial O*-algebras. Then we summarize the representation theory of partial *-algebras, including a generalized Gel’fand-Naimark-Segal construction; the main tool here is the notion of positive sesquilinear form, that we study in some detail (extendability, normality, order structure, …). Finally we turn to automorphisms and derivations of partial O*-algebras, and their mutual relationship. The central theme here is to find conditions that guarante…
VECTOR MEASURES WITH VARIATION IN A BANACH FUNCTION SPACE
2003
Let E be a Banach function space and X be an arbitrary Banach space. Denote by E(X) the Kothe-Bochner function space defined as the set of measurable functions f : Ω → X such that the nonnegative functions ‖f‖X : Ω → [0,∞) are in the lattice E. The notion of E-variation of a measure —which allows to recover the pvariation (for E = Lp), Φ-variation (for E = LΦ) and the general notion introduced by Gresky and Uhl— is introduced. The space of measures of bounded E-variation VE(X) is then studied. It is shown, among other things and with some restriction of absolute continuity of the norms, that (E(X))∗ = VE′ (X ∗), that VE(X) can be identified with space of cone absolutely summing operators fr…
Context Trees, Variable Length Markov Chains and Dynamical Sources
2012
Infinite random sequences of letters can be viewed as stochastic chains or as strings produced by a source, in the sense of information theory. The relationship between Variable Length Markov Chains (VLMC) and probabilistic dynamical sources is studied. We establish a probabilistic frame for context trees and VLMC and we prove that any VLMC is a dynamical source for which we explicitly build the mapping. On two examples, the "comb" and the "bamboo blossom", we find a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence and the uniqueness of a stationary probability measure for the VLMC. These two examples are detailed in order to provide the associated Dirichlet series as well as the genera…
The Action of the Symplectic Group Associated with a Quadratic Extension of Fields
1999
Abstract Given a quadratic extension L/K of fields and a regular alternating space (V, f) of finite dimension over L, we classify K-subspaces of V which do not split into the orthogonal sum of two proper K-subspaces. This allows one to determine the orbits of the group SpL(V, f) in the set of K-subspaces of V.
On the Toeplitz algebras of right-angled and finite-type Artin groups
1999
The graph product of a family of groups lies somewhere between their direct and free products, with the graph determining which pairs of groups commute and which do not. We show that the graph product of quasi-lattice ordered groups is quasi-lattice ordered, and, when the underlying groups are amenable, that it satisfies Nica's amenability condition for quasi-lattice orders. As a consequence the Toeplitz algebras of these groups are universal for covariant isometric representations on Hilbert space, and their representations are faithful if the isometries satisfy a properness condition given by Laca and Raeburn. An application of this to right-angled Artin groups gives a uniqueness theorem …
Generalized ``transition probability''
1975
An operationally meaningful symmetric function defined on pairs of states of an arbitrary physical system is constructed and is shown to coincide with the usual “transition probability” in the special case of systems admitting a quantum-mechanical description. It can be used to define a metric in the set of physical states. Conceivable applications to the analysis of certain aspects of Quantum Mechanics and to its possible modifications are mentioned.
An example concerning the zero set of the Jacobian
2006
AbstractLet f∈W1,1(Ω,Rn) be a homeomorphism of finite distortion K. It is known that if K1/(n−1)∈L1(Ω), then the Jacobian Jf of f is positive almost everywhere in Ω. We will show that this integrability assumption on K is sharp in any Orlicz-scale: if α is increasing function (satisfying minor technical assumptions) such that limt→∞α(t)=∞, then there exists f such that K1/(n−1)/α(K)∈L1(Ω) and Jf vanishes in a set of positive measure.
Some fixed point results for multi-valued mappings in partial metric spaces
2013
Abstract In this paper, we obtain some fixed point results for multi-valued mappings in partial metric spaces. Our results unify, generalize and complement various known comparable results from the current literature. An example is also included to illustrate the main result in the paper.

Construction of chaotic dynamical system
2010
The first‐order difference equation xn+ 1 = f(xn ), n = 0,1,…, where f: R → R, is referred as an one‐dimensional discrete dynamical system. If function f is a chaotic mapping, then we talk about chaotic dynamical system. Models with chaotic mappings are not predictable in long‐term. In this paper we consider family of chaotic mappings in symbol space S 2. We use the idea of topological semi‐conjugacy and so we can construct a family of mappings in the unit segment such that it is chaotic. First published online: 09 Jun 2011
Representable linear functionals on partial *-algebras
2012
A GNS-like *-representation of a partial *-algebra \({{\mathfrak A}}\) defined by certain representable linear functionals on \({{\mathfrak A}}\) is constructed. The study of the interplay with the GNS construction associated with invariant positive sesquilinear forms (ips) leads to the notions of pre-core and of singular form. It is shown that a positive sesquilinear form with pre-core always decomposes into the sum of an ips form and a singular one.
