C* Algebras and Their Representations

چکیده
The original version of this note was based on two talks given by Efren Ruiz at the Toronto Set Theory seminar in November 2005. This very tentative note and my Luminy talk form an attempt to record the ideas from these talks and draw more attention of set theorists to Naimark’s problem (Problem 5.1 below). An excellent invitation to C*-algebras for set-theorists can be found in [5]. All mistakes are due to me; I would like to thank Efren Ruiz for reducing their number.

Universal Central Extension of Current Superalgebras
Representation as well as central extension are two of the most important concepts in the theory of Lie (super)algebras. Apart from the interest of mathematicians, the attention of physicist are also drawn to these two subjects because of the significant amount of their applications in Physics. In fact for physicists, the study of projective representations of Lie (super)algebras are very impo...
متن کاملOn (Semi)Topological $BL$-algebras
In last ten years many mathematicians have studied properties of BL-algebras endowed with a topology. For example A. Di Nola and L. Leustean cite{dn} studied compact representations of BL-algebras, L. C. Ciungu cite{ciu} investigated some concepts of convergence in the class of perfect BL-algebras, J. Mi Ko and Y. C. Kim cite{jun} studied relationships between closure operators and BL-algebras,...
متن کاملGlobally analytic $p$-adic representations of the pro--$p$--Iwahori subgroup of $GL(2)$ and base change, I : Iwasawa algebras and a base change map
This paper extends to the pro-$p$ Iwahori subgroup of $GL(2)$ over an unramified finite extension of $mathbb{Q}_p$ the presentation of the Iwasawa algebra obtained earlier by the author for the congruence subgroup of level one of $SL(2, mathbb{Z}_p)$. It then describes a natural base change map between the Iwasawa algebras or more correctly, as it turns out, between the global distribut...
متن کاملCLUSTER ALGEBRAS AND CLUSTER CATEGORIES
These are notes from introductory survey lectures given at the Institute for Studies in Theoretical Physics and Mathematics (IPM), Teheran, in 2008 and 2010. We present the definition and the fundamental properties of Fomin-Zelevinsky’s cluster algebras. Then, we introduce quiver representations and show how they can be used to construct cluster variables, which are the canonical generator...
متن کاملArithmetic Deformation Theory of Lie Algebras
This paper is devoted to deformation theory of graded Lie algebras over Z or Zl with finite dimensional graded pieces. Such deformation problems naturally appear in number theory. In the first part of the paper, we use Schlessinger criteria for functors on Artinian local rings in order to obtain universal deformation rings for deformations of graded Lie algebras and their graded representations...
متن کاملGroups with Two Extreme Character Degrees and their Minimal Faithful Representations
for a finite group G, we denote by p(G) the minimal degree of faithful permutation representations of G, and denote by c(G), the minimal degree of faithful representation of G by quasi-permutation matrices over the complex field C. In this paper we will assume that, G is a p-group of exponent p and class 2, where p is prime and cd(G) = {1, |G : Z(G)|^1/2}. Then we will s...
