Spectral flow and winding number in von Neumann algebras

Various topological forms of Von Neumann regularity in Banach algebras

We study topological von Neumann regularity and principal von Neumann regularity of Banach algebras. Our main objective is comparing these two types of Banach algebras and some other known Banach algebras with one another. In particular, we show that the class of topologically von Neumann regular Banach algebras contains all $C^*$-algebras, group algebras of compact abelian groups and ...

Nonlinear $*$-Lie higher derivations on factor von Neumann algebras

Let $mathcal M$ be a factor von Neumann algebra. It is shown that every nonlinear $*$-Lie higher derivation$D={phi_{n}}_{ninmathbb{N}}$ on $mathcal M$ is additive. In particular, if $mathcal M$ is infinite type $I$factor, a concrete characterization of $D$ is given.

We present a new and simple approach to the theory of multiple operator in-tegrals that applies to unbounded operators affiliated with general von Neumann algebras. For semifinite von Neumann algebras we give applications to the Fréchet differentiation of operator functions that sharpen existing results, and establish the Birman-Solomyak representation of the spectral shift function of M.
