Serre-Swan Theorem for non commutative C∗-algebras

Serre-Swan theorem for non-commutative C∗-algebras. Revised edition

We generalize the Serre-Swan theorem to non-commutative C∗algebras. For a Hilbert C∗-module X over a C∗-algebra A, we introduce a hermitian vector bundle EX associated to X . We show that there is a linear subspace ΓX of the space of all holomorphic sections of EX and a flat connection D on EX with the following properties: (i) ΓX is a Hilbert A-module with the action of A defined by D, (ii) th...

Non-commutative Gröbner Bases for Commutative Algebras

An ideal I in the free associative algebra k〈X1, . . . ,Xn〉 over a field k is shown to have a finite Gröbner basis if the algebra defined by I is commutative; in characteristic 0 and generic coordinates the Gröbner basis may even be constructed by lifting a commutative Gröbner basis and adding commutators.

Gelfand theory for non-commutative Banach algebras

Let A be a Banach algebra. We call a pair (G,A) a Gelfand theory for A if the following axioms are satisfied: (G 1) A is a C∗-algebra, and G : A → A is a homomorphism; (G 2) the assignment L 7→ G−1(L) is a bijection between the sets of maximal modular left ideals of A and A, respectively; (G 3) for each maximal modular left ideal L of A, the linear map GL : A/G−1(L) → A/L induced by G has dense...
