Let $\mathcal A$ be a unital $C^*$-algebra. We consider Jordan $*$-homomorphisms on $C(X, \mathcal A)$ and Lip$(X,\mathcal A)$. More precisely, for any $C^*$-algebra A$, we prove that every $*$-homomorph

1 The function level evolvable hardware approach to synthesize the combinational multiple-valued and binary logic functions is proposed in rst time. The new representation of logic gate in extrinsic EHW allows us to describe behaviour of any multi-input multi-output logic function. The circuit is represented in the form of connections and functionalities of a rectangular array of building block...

We investigate how a C*-algebra could consist of functions on a noncommutative set: a discretization of a C*-algebra A is a ∗-homomorphism A → M that factors through the canonical inclusion C(X) ⊆ `∞(X) when restricted to a commutative C*-subalgebra. Any C*-algebra admits an injective but nonfunctorial discretization, as well as a possibly noninjective functorial discretization, where M is a C*...

We give the nuclear analogue of Dadarlat’s characterization of exact quasidiagonal C∗-algebras. Specifically, we prove the following: Theorem 0.1. Let A be a unital separable simple C∗-algebra. Then the following conditions are equivalent: i) A is nuclear and quasidiagonal. ii) A has the stabilization principle. iii) If π : A → M(A ⊗ K) is a unital, purely large ∗-homomorphism, then the image π...

We show that every groupoid C*-algebra is isomorphic to its opposite, and deduce there exist C*-algebras are not stably C*-algebras, though many of them twisted C*-algebras. also prove the opposite algebra a section Fell bundle over natural bundle.

let $a$ be an arbitrary banach algebra and $varphi$ a homomorphism from $a$ onto $bbb c$. our first purpose in this paper is to give some equivalent conditions under which guarantees a $varphi$-mean of norm one. then we find some conditions under which there exists a $varphi$-mean in the weak$^*$ cluster of ${ain a; |a|=varphi(a)=1}$ in $a^{**}$.

This paper will review some of the photonic technologies that could become important components of future telecommunications systems. It will begin by dividing photonic devices and systems into two classes according to the function they perform. The first class, relational, will be associated with devices, which under external control, maps the input channels to the output channels. The second ...
