Inductive limit of mapping tori

I have two mapping tori $A_{n}$={$f\in C([0,1], M_{n}(\mathbb{R}))\mid f(1)=\alpha_{1}(f(0))$}, $B_{n}$={$f\in C([0,1], M_{n}(\mathbb{R}))\mid f(1)=\alpha_{2}(f(0))$} where $\alpha …

Fourier coefficients as spectrum

Let $\mathbb{T}=[0,1]$ be identified with the circle $\{ e^{2 \pi it} : t \in [0,1] \}$, $\delta_0 \in M(\mathbb{T})$ be the Dirac measure at $0 \in \mathbb{T}$. Suppose $f \in L^1 …

Sub-unital maps between C*-algebras: is there any relevant result?

"In this section, we deal with positive linear maps $\phi : A \rightarrow M$ between two unital C∗-algebra $A$ and $M$ with units denoted by $I$. In fact, we may assume that $A$ is …

When does a $W^*$-algebra have a standard Borel spectrum?

EDIT: André Henriques has commented below that the correct separability condition is not weak-* separability as I have written below, but separability of the predual. This post c …

Metrics and completions on the direct limit of matrices of all sizes over arbitrary fields

Let $M_n$ denote the $n$ by $n$ matrices. Consider the homomorphisms $$\phi_{n,kn}: M_n \rightarrow M_{kn}$$ which takes a matrix $A \in M_n$ to $A \otimes I_k \in M_{kn}.$ This gi …

Are the groups $C( \mathbb{R} ; U(n) )$ isomorphic?

Let $C(\mathbb{R};{U}(n))$ denote the topological group of continuous functions $\mathbb{R}\to {U}(n)$ with pointwise multiplication and compact-open topology. My question is: Are …

Can nuclearity be determined by tensoring with a single C*-algebra?

A C*-algebra is nuclear if the algebraic tensor product $A\odot B$ ($B$ is any other C*-algebra) admits a unique C*-norm. This definition requires testing the condition for nuclear …

From positive definite function to Følner sequence --— a question on amenability and nuclearity

We know that amenability of countable discrete group $\Gamma$ has many equivalent characterizations. In particular, there are two: a) there is a sequence of finitely supported posi …
