We develop a novel perspective on reflection positivity (RP) on the strip by systematically developing the analogies with the unit disc and the upper half plane in the complex plane. These domains correspond to the three conjugacy classes of one-parameter groups in the M\"obius group (elliptic for the disc, parabolic for the upper half plane and hy...

Full Vertex Operator Algebras (full VOA) are extensions of two commuting Vertex Operator Algebras, introduced to formulate compact two-dimensional conformal field theory. We define unitarity, polynomial energy bounds and polynomial spectral density for full VOA. Under these conditions and local $C_1$-cofiniteness of the simple full VOA, we show tha...

Real standard subspaces of complex Hilbert spaces are long known to provide the right language for Tomita–Takesaki modular theory of von Neumann algebras. In recent years they have also become an object of prominent interest in mathematical quantum field theory (QFT) and unitary representation theory of Lie groups. This workshop brought together ma...

Two-dimensional full conformal field theories have been studied in various mathematical frameworks, from algebraic, operator-algebraic to categorical. In this work, we focus our attention on theories with chiral components having pointed braided tensor representation subcategories, namely having automorphisms whose equivalence classes necessarily f...

In this paper we study Cuntz–Pimsner algebras associated to 𝐶*-correspondences over commutative C ∗ \mathrm {C}^* -algebras from the point of view of the C ∗ \mathrm {C}^* -algebra classification programme. We show that when the correspondence comes from an aperiodic homeomorphism of a finite dimensional infinite compact metric space X X twisted by...

We analyze reflection positive representations in terms of positive Hankel operators. This is motivated by the fact that positive Hankel operators are described in terms of their Carleson measures, whereas the compatibility condition between representations and reflection positive Hilbert spaces is quite intricate. This leads us to the concept of a...

Quasi *-algebras form an essential class of partial *-algebras, which are algebras of unbounded operators. In this work, we aim to construct tensor products of normed, respectively Banach quasi *-algebras, and study their capacity to preserve some important properties of their tensor factors, like for instance, *-semisimplicity and full representab...

This note aims to investigate the tensor product of two given Hilbert quasi *-algebras and its properties. The construction proposed in this note turns out to be again a Hilbert quasi *-algebra, thus interesting representability properties studed in \cite{AT} are maintained. Furthermore, if two functionals are representable and continuous respectiv...

This survey aims to highlight some of the consequences that representable (and continuous) functionals have in the framework of Banach quasi *-algebras. In particular, we look at the link between the notions of *-semisimplicity and full representability in which representable functionals are involved. Then, we emphasize their essential role in stud...

This paper is devoted to the study of unbounded derivations on Banach quasi *-algebras with a particular emphasis to the case when they are infinitesimal generators of one-parameter automorphisms groups. Both of them, derivations and automorphisms are considered in a weak sense, i.e., with the use of a certain families of bounded sesquilinear forms...

This note aims to highlight the link between representable functionals and derivations on a Banach quasi *-algebra, i.e. a mathematical structure that can be seen as the completion of a normed *-algebra in the case the multiplication is only separately continuous. Representable functionals and derivations have been investigated in previous papers f...

In the study of locally convex quasi *-algebras an important role is played by representable linear functionals; i.e., functionals which allow a GNS-construction. This paper is mainly devoted to the study of the continuity of representable functionals in Banach and Hilbert quasi *-algebras. Some other concepts related to representable functionals (...

We give sufficient conditions for the existence of common fixed points for a pair of mixed multi-valued mappings in the setting of 0-complete partial metric spaces. An example is given to demonstrate the usefulness of our results over the existing results in metric spaces. Finally, we prove a homotopy theorem via fixed point results.
