C*-Algebra Extensions of C(X) (Memoirs of the American Mathematical Society)

by Huaxin Lin
Condition: New		$36.00
Binding: Paperback	In Stock: 100

Notes:
Brand new. We distribute directly for the publisher. This work shows that the Weyl-von Neumann theorem for unitaries holds for $\sigma$-unital $AF$-algebras and their multiplier algebras. Lin studies $E(X,A)$, the quotient of $\textnormal{{\mathbf{Ext}}}^{eu}_s(C(X),A)$ by a special class of trivial extension, dubbed totally trivial extensions. This leads to a BDF-type classification for extensions of $C(X)$ by a $\sigma$-unital purely infinite simple $C^$-algebra with trivial $K_1$-group. Lin also shows that, when $X$ is a compact subset of the plane, every extension of $C(X)$ by a finite matroid $C^$-algebra is totally trivial. Classification of these extensions for nice spaces is given, as are some other versions of the Weyl-von Neumann-Berg theorem.

C*-Algebras by Example (Fields Institute Monographs, 6)

by Kenneth R. Davidson
Condition: New		$59.91
Binding: Hardcover	In Stock: 99

Notes:
Brand new. We distribute directly for the publisher. This book is an introductory graduate level text which presents the basics of the subject through a detailed analysis of several important classes of C-algebras. The development of operator algebras in the last twenty years has been based on a careful study of these special classes. While there are many books on C-algebras and operator algebras available, this is the first one to attempt to explain the real examples that researchers use to test their hypotheses. Topics include AF algebras, Bunce-Deddens and Cuntz algebras, the Toeplitz algebra, irrational rotation algebras, group C-algebras, discrete crossed products, abelian C-algebras (spectral theory and approximate unitary equivalence) and extensions. It also introduces many modern concepts and results in the subject such as real rank zero algebras, topological stable rank, quasidiagonality, and various new constructions.These notes were compiled during the author's participation in the special year on C-algebras at The Fields Institute for Research in Mathematical Sciences during the 1994-1995 academic year. The field of C-algebras touches upon many other areas of mathematics such as group representations, dynamical systems, physics, $K$-theory, and topology. The variety of examples offered in this text expose the student to many of these connections. Graduate students with a solid course in functional analysis should be able to read this book. This should prepare them to read much of the current literature. This book is reasonably self-contained, and the author has provided results from other areas when necessary.

C*-Algebras: 1943-1993 : A Fifty Year Celebration : Ams Special Session Commenorating the First Fifty Years of C*-Algebra Theory January 13-14, 1993 (Contemporary Mathematics)

by Editor-Robert S. Doran
Condition: New		$71.00
Binding: Paperback	In Stock: 100

Notes:
Brand new. We distribute directly for the publisher. This volume contains the proceedings of an AMS Special Session held at the Joint Mathematics Meetings in San Antonio in January 1993 to celebrate the first fifty years of $C^$-algebra theory. The book contains carefully written expository and research articles by leaders in the field. Also included is a reprinting of the original 1943 paper on $C^$-algebras by Gelfand and Neumark, which has had such a profound influence on the field. The volume covers a broad spectrum of topics, including the Gelfand-Neumark theorems, $C^$-algebras and quantization, projections in $C^$-algebras, Mackey's theory of group representations and their relation to $C^$-algebras, transformation group $C^$-algebras, the influence of algebraic topology on $C^$-algebras, K-theory and index theory in operator algebras, exponential rank in $C^$-algebras, and a survey of the development of type III von Neumann algebras. With historical perspectives and up-to-date overviews to orient readers new to the field, this book will interest mathematicians, physicists, and mathematical historians.
