Commutants of von Neumann Correspondences and Duality of Eilenberg-Watts Theorems by Rieffel and by Blecher
نویسنده
چکیده
The category of von Neumann correspondences from B to C (or von Neumann B–C–modules) is dual to the category of von Neumann correspondences from C to B via a functor that generalizes naturally the functor that sends a von Neumann algebra to its commutant and back. We show that under this duality, called commutant, Rieffel’s Eilenberg-Watts theorem (on functors between the categories of representations of two von Neumann algebras) switches into Blecher’s Eilenberg-Watts theorem (on functors between the categories of von Neumann modules over two von Neumann algebras) and back. This work is supported by research fonds of the Department S.E.G.e S. of University of Molise.

Calculating Different Topological Indices of Von Neumann Regular Graph of Z_(p^α )
By the Von Neumann regular graph of R, we mean the graph that its vertices are all elements of R such that there is an edge between vertices x,y if and only if x+y is a von Neumann regular element of R, denoted by G_Vnr (R). For a commutative ring R with unity, x in R is called Von Neumann regular if there exists x in R such that a=a2 x. We denote the set of Von Neumann regular elements by V nr...
متن کاملUnveiling Eilenberg-type Correspondences: Birkhoff's Theorem for (finite) Algebras + Duality
The purpose of the present paper is to show that: Eilenberg–type correspondences = Birkhoff’s theorem for (finite) algebras + duality. We consider algebras for a monad T on a category D and we study (pseudo)varieties of T– algebras. Pseudovarieties of algebras are also known in the literature as varieties of finitealgebras. Two well–known theorems that characterize varieties and pseudovarie...
متن کاملIsometric Dilations of Representations of Product Systems via Commutants
We construct a weak dilation of a not necessarily unital CP-semigroup to an E–semigroup acting on the adjointable operators of a Hilbert module with a unit vector. We construct the dilation in such a way that the dilating E–semigroup has a pre-assigned product system. Then, making use of the commutant of von Neumann correspondences, we apply the dilation theorem to proof that covariant represen...
متن کاملVarious 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 ...
متن کاملThe James and von Neumann-Jordan type constants and uniform normal structure in Banach spaces
Recently, Takahashi has introduced the James and von Neumann-Jordan type constants. In this paper, we present some sufficient conditions for uniform normal structure and therefore the fixed point property of a Banach space in terms of the James and von Neumann-Jordan type constants and the Ptolemy constant. Our main results of the paper significantly generalize and improve many known results in...
