A $C^*$ algebraic analogy of the concept of complemented subspace in the particular case of $\ell^\infty$
Let $A$ be a $C^*$ algebra. A $C^*$ subalgebra $C\subset A$ is said to be $C^*$ algebraic complemented of $A$ if there exist a $C^*$ subalgebra $D\subset A$ with $A=C\oplus D$ and the obvios mapping $...

A spectral description of Fredholm operators
Let $L:H \to H$ be a bounded operator on a Hilbert space $H$, with finite dimensional kernel, and whose adjoint also has finite dimensional kernel. Is it true that $L$ is Fredholm if and only if its ...

On the coincidence (or non-coincidence) of two norms defined on the quotient of a given Hilbert $ C^{\ast} $-module by a certain linear subspace
Let $ A $ be a $ C^{\ast} $-algebra, $ I $ a closed two-sided ideal of $ A $, and $ \mathcal{E} $ a Hilbert $ A $-module. Let
$$
\mathcal{E}_{I}
\stackrel{\text{df}}{=}
\{ x \in \mathcal{E} \mid \...

Continuous factors for invertible simple tensors
Our following question is motivated by this very interesting answer
Assume that $A$ is a $C^{*}$ algebra. Put $X=\{a\otimes b \mid a,b \in G(A)\}$ where $G(A)$ is the space of all ...

Which C*-algebras are complemented in their bidual?
Every von Neumann algebra is 1-complemented in its bidual, and so is every injective C*-algebra. Also, if $C_0(X)$ is infinite-dimensional and separable then it is not complemented in its bidual, and $...

Integration in C^* algebra
Let $\mathfrak{A}$ be a C${}^*$ algebra and $\mathbb{R}\ni s \mapsto \alpha_s$ a continuous family of its automorphisms. Is it true that
$$
\int d s \, f(s)\, \alpha_s(A)
$$
is well defined as a ...

$C^*$-algebra generated by those operators that are bounded on every $\ell_p$
Suppose $T: c_{00} \to c_{00}$ is a linear map such that, when regarded as an infinite matrix, there is a uniform bound on the $\ell_1$-norms of its columns, and a uniform bound on the $\ell_1$-norms ...

Morita equivalence for operator algebras and tensor products, question about proof
This is a bit of a dumb question I know, but I was reading "Morita equivalence for C*-algebras and W*-algebras" by Rieffel, in this section about Morita equivalences and how they relate to forming ...

$c_0$-direct sum of $\mathcal{K}(\mathcal{H})$
Let $\mathcal{K}(\mathcal{H})$ be the C*-algebra of compact operators on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. I am interested in the ($c_0$-)sum
$A=\sum \mathcal{K}(\mathcal{H})$
of countably many ...
