Finite element analysis of a simplified stochastic Hookean dumbbells model arising from viscoelastic flows

Andrea Bonito, Philippe Clément, Marco Picasso (2006)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

A simplified stochastic Hookean dumbbells model arising from viscoelastic flows is considered, the convective terms being disregarded. A finite element discretization in space is proposed. Existence of the numerical solution is proved for small data, so as a priori error estimates, using an implicit function theorem and regularity results obtained in [Bonito et al., J. Evol. Equ.6 (2006) 381–398] for the solution of the continuous problem. A posteriori error estimates are also derived. Numerical...

Finite generation in C*-algebras and Hilbert C*-modules

David P. Blecher, Tomasz Kania (2014)

Studia Mathematica

We characterize C*-algebras and C*-modules such that every maximal right ideal (resp. right submodule) is algebraically finitely generated. In particular, C*-algebras satisfy the Dales-Żelazko conjecture.

Finite rank approximation and semidiscreteness for linear operators

Christian Le Merdy (1999)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Given a completely bounded map u : Z M from an operator space Z into a von Neumann algebra (or merely a unital dual algebra) M , we define u to be C -semidiscrete if for any operator algebra A , the tensor operator I A u is bounded from A min Z into A nor M , with norm less than C . We investigate this property and characterize it by suitable approximation properties, thus generalizing the Choi-Effros characterization of semidiscrete von Neumann algebras. Our work is an extension of some recent work of Pisier on an analogous...

Finite rank elements in semisimple Banach algebras

Matej Brešar, Peter Šemrl (1998)

Studia Mathematica

Let A be a semisimple Banach algebra. We define the rank of a nonzero element a in the socle of A to be the minimum of the number of minimal left ideals whose sum contains a. Several characterizations of rank are proved.

Finite spectra and quasinilpotent equivalence in Banach algebras

Rudi M. Brits, Heinrich Raubenheimer (2012)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

This paper further investigates the implications of quasinilpotent equivalence for (pairs of) elements belonging to the socle of a semisimple Banach algebra. Specifically, not only does quasinilpotent equivalence of two socle elements imply spectral equality, but also the trace, determinant and spectral multiplicities of the elements must agree. It is hence shown that quasinilpotent equivalence is established by a weaker formula (than that of the spectral semidistance). More generally, in the second...

Finite sums and products of commutators in inductive limit C * -algebras

Klaus Thomsen (1993)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Results of T. Fack, P. de la Harpe and G. Skandalis concerning the internal structure of simple A F -algebras are extended to C * -algebras that are inductive limits of finite direct sums of homogeneous C * -algebras. The generalizations are obtained with slightly varying assumptions on the building blocks, but all results are applicable to unital simple inductive limits of finite direct sums of circle algebras.

Finite-dimensional Lie subalgebras of algebras with continuous inversion

Daniel Beltiţă, Karl-Hermann Neeb (2008)

Studia Mathematica

We investigate the finite-dimensional Lie groups whose points are separated by the continuous homomorphisms into groups of invertible elements of locally convex algebras with continuous inversion that satisfy an appropriate completeness condition. We find that these are precisely the linear Lie groups, that is, the Lie groups which can be faithfully represented as matrix groups. Our method relies on proving that certain finite-dimensional Lie subalgebras of algebras with continuous inversion commute...
