Commutants of Nest Algebras Modulo the Compact Operators.
In a former paper we describe the geometric properties of the space of continuous functions with values in the space of operators acting on a Hilbert space. In particular we show that dent B(L(H)) = ext B(L(H)) if dim H < 8 and card K < 8 and dent B(L(H)) = 0 if dim H < 8 or card K = 8, and x-ext C(K,L(H)) = ext C(K,L(H)).
We give universal upper bounds on the relative dimensions of isotypic components of a tensor product of representations of the linear group GL(n) and universal upper bounds on the relative dimensions of irreducible components of a tensor product of representations of the special linear group SL(n). This problem is motivated by harmonic analysis problems, and we give some applications to the theory of Beurling-Fourier algebras.
Given a completely bounded map from an operator space into a von Neumann algebra (or merely a unital dual algebra) , we define to be -semidiscrete if for any operator algebra , the tensor operator is bounded from into , with norm less than . 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...
The irreducible Hilbert space representations of a ⁎-algebra, the graded analogue of the Lie algebra of the group of plane motions, are classified up to unitary equivalence.
A class of Banach spaces of compact operators in Hilbert spaces is introduced, and the holomorphic automorphism groups of the unit balls of these spaces are investigated.
In this paper a complete characterization of hyperreflexive operators on finite dimensional Hilbert spaces is given.
