Do we have topological counterparts of solvability and nilpotency, which are central concepts for (finite-dimensional) Lie algebras, for infinite dimensional Banach algebras with the commutator ...

(In the scenario I have in mind, rings need not be unital.) The following notion has come up in some joint work that is being written up. Let $R$ and $S$ be rings, and let $D$ be a subring of $R$. Is ...

In the literature, are there some research around a directed graph associated to a $C^*$ algebra or a ring $A$ whose vertices are projections or idempotents of $A$ and $e$ is connected to $f$ iff $ef=...

Please help me with the following question. What are some examples of Banach algebra $A$ satisfying the following two conditions? $1$.$ A $ does not have an approximate identity. $2$. $A^2=A$. ...

Given $\delta\in\mathbb C$, let $A(\delta)$ denote the complex unital $*$-algebra generated by an identity $1$ and selfadjoint elements $e_k$, $k\in\mathbb N$, satisfying $e_k^2=\delta e_k$, $e_ke_l=...

Let $\Gamma$ be a group, $N(\Gamma)$ its group von Neumann algebra, $\newcommand{\cUG}{{\mathcal U}(\Gamma)}$ and $\cUG$ the ring of all densely-defined, closed operators $\ell^2(\Gamma)\to\ell^2(\...
