On local derivations in the Kadison sense

Andrzej Nowicki (2001)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Let k be a field. We prove that any polynomial ring over k is a Kadison algebra if and only if k is infinite. Moreover, we present some new examples of Kadison algebras and examples of algebras which are not Kadison algebras.

On the transient and recurrent parts of a quantum Markov semigroup

Veronica Umanità (2006)

Banach Center Publications

We define the transient and recurrent parts of a quantum Markov semigroup 𝓣 on a von Neumann algebra 𝓐 and we show that, when 𝓐 is σ-finite, we can write 𝓣 as the sum of such semigroups. Moreover, if 𝓣 is the countable direct sum of irreducible semigroups each with a unique faithful normal invariant state ρₙ, we find conditions under which any normal invariant state is a convex combination of ρₙ's.

Operators preserving ideals in C*-algebras

V. Shul'Man (1994)

Studia Mathematica

The aim of this paper is to prove that derivations of a C*-algebra A can be characterized in the space of all linear continuous operators T : A → A by the conditions T(1) = 0, T(L∩R) ⊂ L + R for any closed left ideal L and right ideal R. As a corollary we get an extension of the result of Kadison [5] on local derivations in W*-algebras. Stronger results of this kind are proved under some additional conditions on the cohomologies of A.
