Free semigroup algebras and the structure of an isometric tuple
(University of Waterloo, 2011-06-28)An n-tuple of operators V=(V_1,…,V_n) acting on a Hilbert space H is said to be isometric if the corresponding row operator is an isometry. A free semigroup algebra is the weakly closed algebra generated by an isometric ... -
On the Similarity of Operator Algebras to C*-Algebras
(University of Waterloo, 2006)This is an expository thesis which addresses the requirements for an operator algebra to be similar to a <em>C</em>*-algebra. It has been conjectured that this similarity condition is equivalent to either amenability ...
