Let A be a (not necessarily selfadjoint) subalgebra of a unital C-algebra B which contains the unit of B. The right ideals of A with left contractive approximate identity are characterized as those subspaces of A supported by the orthogonal complement of a closed projection in B which also lies in A. Although this seems quite natural, the nonselfadjointness requires us to develop some interpola...

The theory of M-ideals and multiplier mappings of Banach spaces naturally generalizes to left (or right) M-ideals and multiplier mappings of operator spaces. These subspaces and mappings are intrinsically characterized in terms of the matrix norms. In turn this is used to prove that the algebra of left adjointable mappings of a dual operator space X is a von Neumann algebra. If in addition X is...

We present some special properties of inverse categories with split idempotents. First, we examine a Clifford-Leech type theorem relative to such inverse categories. The connection with right cancellative categories with pushouts is illustrated by simple examples. Finally, some basic properties of inverse categories with split idempotents and kernels are studied in terms of split idempotents wh...

in this paper, we introduce and study the prime, strongly prime,semiprime and irreducible fuzzy bi-ideals of a semigroup. we characterize thosesemigroups for which each fuzzy bi-ideal is semiprime. we also characterizethose semigroups for which each fuzzy bi-ideal is strongly prime.
