A quantization of coarse spaces and uniform Roe algebras

Bruno M. Braga, Joseph Eisner, David Sherman

We propose a quantization of coarse spaces and uniform Roe algebras. The objects are based on the quantum relations introduced by N. Weaver and require the choice of a represented…

Support expansion -algebras

Bruno de Mendonça Braga, Joseph Eisner, David Sherman

We consider operators on spaces that expand the support of vectors in a manner controlled by some constraint function. The primary objects of study are -algebras…

The universal C*-algebra of a contraction

Kristin Courtney, David Sherman

We say that a contractive Hilbert space operator is universal if there is a natural surjection from its generated C*-algebra to the C*-algebra generated by any other contraction. A…

Matrices similar to partial isometries

Stephan Ramon Garcia, David Sherman

We determine when a matrix is similar to a partial isometry, refining a result of Halmos--McLaughlin.

On the similarity of AB and BA for normal and other matrices

Stephan Ramon Garcia, David Sherman, Gary Weiss

It is well-known that and are similar when and are complex square Hermitian matrices. In this note we answer a question of F. Zhang by demonstrating that similari…

Existentially closed II_1 factors

Ilijas Farah, Isaac Goldbring, Bradd Hart +1

We examine the properties of existentially closed (R^omega-embeddable) II_1 factors. In particular, we use the fact that every automorphism of an existentially closed (R^omega-embe…
