On two possible constructions of the quantum semigroup of all quantum permutations of an infinite countable set
Two different models for a Hopf-von Neumann algebra of bounded functions on the quantum semigroup of all (quantum) permutations of infinitely many elements are proposed, one based on projective limits of enveloping von Neumann algebras related to finite quantum permutation groups, and the second on a universal property with respect to infinite magic unitaries.
On two quantum versions of the detailed balance condition
Quantum detailed balance conditions are often formulated as relationships between the generator of a quantum Markov semigroup and the generator of a dual semigroup with respect to a certain scalar product defined by an invariant state. In this paper we survey some results describing the structure of norm continuous quantum Markov semigroups on ℬ(h) satisfying a quantum detailed balance condition when the duality is defined by means of pre-scalar products on ℬ(h) of the form (s ∈ [0,1]) in order...
On unitary convex decompositions of vectors in a -algebra
By exploiting his recent results, the author further investigates the extent to which variation in the coefficients of a unitary convex decomposition of a vector in a unital -algebra permits the vector decomposable as convex combination of fewer unitaries; certain -algebra results due to M. Rørdam have been extended to the general setting of -algebras.

On weak sequential convergence in JB*-triple duals
We study various Banach space properties of the dual space E* of a homogeneous Banach space (alias, a JB*-triple) E. For example, if all primitive M-ideals of E are maximal, we show that E* has the Alternative Dunford-Pettis property (respectively, the Kadec-Klee property) if and only if all biholomorphic automorphisms of the open unit ball of E are sequentially weakly continuous (respectively, weakly continuous). Those E for which E* has the weak* Kadec-Klee property are characterised by a compactness...

On Woronowicz's approach to the Tomita-Takesaki theory
The Tomita-Takesaki Theory is very complex and can be contemplated from different points of view. In the decade 1970-1980 several approaches to it appeared, each one seeking to attain more transparency. One of them was the paper of S. L. Woronowicz "Operator systems and their application to the Tomita-Takesaki theory" that appeared in 1979. Woronowicz's approach allows a particularly precise insight into the nature of the Tomita-Takesaki Theory and in this paper we present a brief, but fairly detailed...
One property of the weak convergence of operators iterations in von Neumann algebras.
Open partial isometries and positivity in operator spaces
We first study positivity in C*-modules using tripotents ( = partial isometries) which are what we call open. This is then used to study ordered operator spaces via an "ordered noncommutative Shilov boundary" which we introduce. This boundary satisfies the usual universal diagram/property of the noncommutative Shilov boundary, but with all the arrows completely positive. Because of their independent interest, we also systematically study open tripotents and their properties.
Open projections in operator algebras I: Comparison theory
We begin a program of generalizing basic elements of the theory of comparison, equivalence, and subequivalence, of elements in C*-algebras, to the setting of more general algebras. In particular, we follow the recent lead of Lin, Ortega, Rørdam, and Thiel of studying these equivalences, etc., in terms of open projections or module isomorphisms. We also define and characterize a new class of inner ideals in operator algebras, and develop a matching theory of open partial isometries in operator ideals...
Open projections in operator algebras II: Compact projections
We generalize some aspects of the theory of compact projections relative to a C*-algebra, to the setting of more general algebras. Our main result is that compact projections are the decreasing limits of 'peak projections', and in the separable case compact projections are just the peak projections. We also establish new forms of the noncommutative Urysohn lemma relative to an operator algebra, and we show that a projection is compact iff the associated face in the state space of the algebra is...
