It is well known that Verma module homomorphisms correspond to invariant operators on homogeneous spaces, which in certain situations can be regarded as the flat models of specific differential geometries. This can be generalised to curved space by introducing semiholonomic Verma modules, whose homomorphisms give rise to invariant operators on curved space. In this article we investigate from a...

We characterize the category of injective *-homomorphisms between commutative C*-subalgebras of various C*-algebras, namely C*-algebras of operators on separable Hilbert spaces, any finite-dimensional C*-algebra, and any commutative C*-algebra.

We establish an isomorphism between the space of logarithmic intertwining operators among suitable generalized modules for a vertex operator algebra and the space of homomorphisms between suitable modules for a generalization of Zhu’s algebra given by Dong-Li-Mason.

The paper considers the role of quantale algebra nuclei in representation of quotients of quantale algebras, and in factorization of quantale algebra homomorphisms. The set of all nuclei on a given quantale algebra is endowed with the structure of quantale semi-algebra.

In the framework of fuzzy algebras with fuzzy equalities and acomplete lattice as a structure of membership values, we investigate fuzzyequational classes. They consist of special fuzzy algebras fullling the samefuzzy identities, dened with respect to fuzzy equalities. We introduce basicnotions and the corresponding operators of universal algebra: construction offuzzy subalgebras, homomorphisms...

We consider contractive homomorphisms of a planar algebra A(Ω) over a finitely connected bounded domain Ω ⊆ C and ask if they are necessarily completely contractive. We show that a homomorphism ρ : A(Ω) → B(H) for which dim(A(Ω)/ ker ρ) = 2 is the direct integral of homomorphisms ρT induced by operators on two dimensional Hilbert spaces via a suitable functional calculus ρT : f 7→ f(T ), f ∈ A(...

1. Introduction Let B be a commutative Banach algebra, and let 6 be a homomorphism from B into a Banach algebra A. In this paper we are concerned with establishing conditions on A and B which ensure that 6 is continuous. If A is semisimple, it is well known that any such homomorphism must be continuous, and therefore we shall be interested in cases where A is not semisimple. Questions of this n...

Let A be a unital algebra and M be a unital A-bimodule. A characterization of generalized derivations and generalized Jordan derivations from A into M, through zero products or zero Jordan products, is given. Suppose that M is a unital left A-module. It is investigated when a linear mapping from A into M is a Jordan left derivation under certain conditions. It is also studied whether an algebra...

Regular Lie groups are infinite dimensional Lie groups with the property that smooth curves in the Lie algebra integrate to smooth curves in the group in a smooth way (an ‘evolution operator’ exists). Up to now all known smooth Lie groups are regular. We show in this paper that regular Lie groups allow to push surprisingly far the geometry of principal bundles: parallel transport exists and fla...
