The path space of a higher-rank graph
We construct a locally compact Hausdorff topology on the path space of a finitely aligned k-graph Λ. We identify the boundary-path space ∂Λ as the spectrum of a commutative C*-subalgebra of C*(Λ). Then, using a construction similar to that of Farthing, we construct a finitely aligned k-graph Λ̃ with no sources in which Λ is embedded, and show that ∂Λ is homeomorphic to a subset of ∂Λ̃. We show that when Λ is row-finite, we can identify C*(Λ) with a full corner of C*(Λ̃), and deduce that is isomorphic...

The polarisation constant for JB*-triples.
The Powers sum of spatial CPD-semigroups and CP-semigroups
We define spatial CPD-semigroups and construct their Powers sum. We construct the Powers sum for general spatial CP-semigroups. In both cases, we show that the product system of that Powers sum is the product of the spatial product systems of its factors. We show that on the domain of intersection, pointwise bounded CPD-semigroups on the one side and Schur CP-semigroups on the other, the constructions coincide. This summarizes all known results about Powers sums and generalizes them considerably....

The set of automorphisms of B(H) is topologically reflexive in B(B(H))
The aim of this paper is to prove the statement announced in the title which can be reformulated in the following way. Let H be a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space and let Φ: B(H) → B(H) be a continuous linear mapping with the property that for every A ∈ B(H) there exists a sequence of automorphisms of B(H) (depending on A) such that . Then Φ is an automorphism. Moreover, a similar statement holds for the set of all surjective isometries of B(H).
The Shirali-Ford theorem as a consequence of Ptak theory for hermitian Banach algebras
A simple application of Pták theory for hermitian Banach algebras, combined with a result on normed Q-algebras, gives a non-technical new proof of the Shirali-Ford theorem. A version of this theorem in the setting of non-normed topological algebras is also provided.
The signature package on Witt spaces
In this paper we prove a variety of results about the signature operator on Witt spaces. First, we give a parametrix construction for the signature operator on any compact, oriented, stratified pseudomanifold which satisfies the Witt condition. This construction, which is inductive over the ‘depth’ of the singularity, is then used to show that the signature operator is essentially self-adjoint and has discrete spectrum of finite multiplicity, so that its index—the analytic signature of —is well-defined....
The simplex of tracial quantum symmetric states
We show that the space of tracial quantum symmetric states of an arbitrary unital C*-algebra is a Choquet simplex and is a face of the tracial state space of the universal unital C*-algebra free product of A with itself infinitely many times. We also show that the extreme points of this simplex are dense, making it the Poulsen simplex when A is separable and nontrivial. In the course of the proof we characterize the centers of certain tracial amalgamated free product C*-algebras.
