A properly infinite C*-algebra has no non-zero traces. We construct properly infinite Banach *-algebras with non-zero, bounded traces, and show that there are even such algebras which are fairly "close" to the class of C*-algebras, in the sense that they can be hermitian or *-semisimple.
In this paper, we introduce a subclass of strongly clean rings. Let be a ring with identity, be the Jacobson radical of , and let denote the set of all elements of which are nilpotent in . An element is called very -clean provided that there exists an idempotent such that and or is an element of . A ring is said to be very -clean in case every element in is very -clean. We prove that every very -clean ring is strongly -rad clean and has stable range one. It is shown...
The problem of when derivations (and their powers) have the range in the Jacobson radical is considered. The proofs are based on the density theorem for derivations.
We consider rings equipped with a closure operation defined in terms of a collection of commuting idempotents, generalising the idea of a topological closure operation defined on a ring of sets. We establish the basic properties of such rings, consider examples and construction methods, and then concentrate on rings which have a closure operation defined in terms of their lattice of central idempotents.
Generalized radical rings (braces) were introduced for the study of set-theoretical solutions of the quantum Yang-Baxter equation. We discuss their relationship to groups of I-type, virtual knot theory, and quantum groups.
