The Ideal

For every p ≥ 2, we give a characterization of positive definite functions on a free group with finitely many generators, which can be extended to positive linear functionals on the free group C*-algebra associated with the ideal ℓp. This is a generalization of Haagerup's characterization for the case of the reduced free group C*-algebra. As a consequence, the canonical quotient map between the associated C*-algebras is not injective, and they have a unique tracial state.

Morita Equivalent

Given a free action of a group $G$ on a directed graph $E$ we show that the crossed product of $C^* (E)$, the universal $C^*$-algebra of $E$, by the induced action is strongly Morita equivalent to $C^* (E/G)$. Since every connected graph $E$ may be expressed as the quotient of a tree $T$ by an action of a free group $G$ we may use our results to show that $C^* (E)$ is strongly Morita equivalent to the crossed product $C_0 ( \partial T ) \times G$, where $\partial T$ is a certain zero-dimensional space canonically associated to the tree.

AbstractWe prove that all the pure states of the reduced C*-algebra of a free group on an uncountable set of generators are *-automorphism equivalent and extract some consequences of this fact.

Let C*(F∞) be the full C*-algebra associated to the free group of countably many generators and SnC*(F∞) be the class of all n-dimensional operator subspaces of C*(F∞). In this paper, we study some stability properties of SnC*(F∞). More precisely, we will prove that for any E0, E1 in SnC*(F∞), the Haagerup tensor product E0⊗hE1 and the operator space obtained by complex interpolation Eθ are (1 + ∈)-contained in C*(F∞) for arbitrary ∈>0. On the other hand, we will show an extension property for WEPC*-algebras.

In this paper we use the concept of numerical range to characterize best approximation points in closed convex subsets of B(H): Finally by using this method we give also a useful characterization of best approximation in closed convex subsets of a C*-algebra A.
