The Measure Algebra as an Operator Algebra

Introduction. In § I, it is shown that M(G)*, the space of bounded linear functionals on M(G), can be represented as a semigroup of bounded operators on M(G). Let A denote the non-zero multiplicative linear functionals on M(G) and let P be the norm closed linear span of A in M(G)*. In § II, it is shown that P , with the Arens multiplication, is a commutative J3*-algebra with identity. Thus P = ...

The radical of a vertex operator algebra

Each v ∈ V has a vertex operator Y (v, z) = ∑ n∈Z vnz −n−1 attached to it, where vn ∈ EndV. For the conformal vector ω we write Y (ω, z) = ∑ n∈Z L(n)z . If v is homogeneous of weight k, that is v ∈ Vk, then one knows that vn : Vm → Vm+k−n−1 and in particular the zero mode o(v) = vwtv−1 induces a linear operator on each Vm. We extend the “o” notation linearly to V, so that in general o(v) is the...

The operator algebra approach to quantum groups.

A relatively simple definition of a locally compact quantum group in the C*-algebra setting will be explained as it was recently obtained by the authors. At the same time, we put this definition in the historical and mathematical context of locally compact groups, compact quantum groups, Kac algebras, multiplicative unitaries, and duality theory.

The Ideal Envelope of an Operator Algebra

A left ideal of any C∗-algebra is an example of an operator algebra with a right contractive approximate identity (r.c.a.i.). Conversely, we show here and in [6] that operator algebras with r.c.a.i. should be studied in terms of a certain left ideal of a C∗-algebra. We study operator algebras and their multiplier algebras from the perspective of ‘Hamana theory’ and using the multiplier algebras...
