On Strict Higher C*-categories

We provide definitions for strict involutive higher categories (a vertical categorification of dagger categories), strict higher C*-categories and higher Fell bundles (over arbitrary involutive higher topological categories). We put forward a proposal for a relaxed form of the exchange property for higher (C*)-categories that avoids the Eckmann-Hilton collapse and hence allows the construction of explicit non-trivial "non-commutative" examples arising from the study of hypermatrices and hyper-C*-algebras, here defined. Alternatives to the usual globular and cubical settings for strict higher categories are also explored. Applications of these non-commutative higher C*-categories are envisaged in the study of morphisms in non-commutative geometry and in the algebraic formulation of relational quantum theory.

Spectral Theory for Non-full Commutative C*-categories

We extend the spectral theory of commutative C*-categories to the non full-case, introducing a suitable notion of spectral spaceoid provinding a duality between a category of "non-trivial" *-functors of non-full commutative C*-categories and a category of Takahashi morphisms of "non-full spaceoids" (here defined). As a byproduct we obtain a spectral theorem for a non-full generalization of imprimitivity Hilbert C*-bimodules over commutative unital C*-algebras via continuous sections vanishing at infinity of a Hilbert C*-line-bundle over the graph of a homeomorphism between open subsets of the corresponding Gel'fand spectra of the C*-algebras.

Clifford Algebra-valued Segal-Bargmann Transform and Taylor Isomorphism

Classical Segal-Bargmann theory studies three Hilbert space unitary isomorphisms that describe the wave-particle duality and the configuration space-phase space. In this work, we generalized these concepts to Clifford algebra-valued functions. We establish the unitary isomorphisms among the space of Clifford algebra-valued square-integrable functions on $\mathbb{R}^n$ with respect to a Gaussian measure, the space of monogenic square-integrable functions on $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ with respect to another Gaussian measure and the space of Clifford algebra-valued linear functionals on symmetric tensor elements of $\mathbb{R}^n$.

On the Calderon-Zygmund property of Riesz-transform type operators arising in nonlocal equations

We show that the operator \[ T_{K,s_1,s_2}f(z) := \int_{\mathbb{R}^n} A_{K,s_1,s_2}(z_1,z_2) f(z_2)\, dz_2 \] is a Calderon-Zygmund operator. Here for $K \in L^\infty(\mathbb{R}^n \times \mathbb{R}^n)$, and $s,s_1,s_2 \in (0,1)$ with $s_1+s_2 = 2s$ we have \[ A_{K,s_1,s_2}(z_1,z_2) = \int_{\mathbb{R}^n} \int_{\mathbb{R}^n} \frac{K(x,y) \left (|x-z_1|^{s_1-n} -|y-z_1|^{s_1-n} \right )\, \left (|x-z_2|^{s_2-n} -|y-z_2|^{s_2-n}\right )}{|x-y|^{n+2s}}\, dx\, dy. \] This operator is motivated by the recent work by Mengesha-Schikorra-Yeepo where it appeared as analogue of the Riesz transforms for the equation \[ \int_{\mathbb{R}^n} \int_{\mathbb{R}^n} \frac{K(x,y) (u(x)-u(y))\, (φ(x)-φ(y))}{|x-y|^{n+2s}}\, dx\, dy = f[φ]. \]

Spectral Theory on Commutative Krein C*-algebras

A Banach involutive algebra is called a Krein C*-algebra if there is a fundamental symmetry (an involutive automorphism of period 2) such that the C*-property is satisfied when the original involution is replaced with the new one obtained by composing the automorphism with the old involution. For a given fundamental symmetry, a Krein C*-algebra decomposes as a direct sum of an even part (a C*-algebra) and an odd part (a Hilbert C*-bimodule on the even part). Our goal here is to develop a spectral theory for commutative unital Krein C*-algebras when the odd part is a symmetric imprimitivity C*-bimodule over the even part and there exists an additional suitable "exchange symmetry" between the odd and even parts.

Categorical Non-commutative Geometry

The purpose of this short note was to outline the current status, then in 2011, of some research programs aiming at a categorification of parts of A.Connes' non-commutative geometry and to provide an outlook on some possible subsequent developments in categorical non-commutative geometry.

The Normed Ordered Cone of Operator Connections

A connection in Kubo-Ando sense is a binary operation for positive operators on a Hilbert space satisfying the monotonicity, the transformer inequality and the continuity from above. A mean is a connection $σ$ such that $A σA =A$ for all positive operators $A$. In this paper, we consider the interplay between the cone of connections, the cone of operator monotone functions on $\R^+$ and the cone of finite Borel measures on $[0,\infty]$. %We define a norm for a connection in such a way that the set of operator connections becomes %a normed ordered cone. %On the other hand, the cone of operator monotone functions on $\R^+$ %and the cone of finite Borel measures on $[0,\infty]$ are equipped with suitable norms. The set of operator connections is shown to be isometrically order-isomorphic, as normed ordered cones, to the set of operator monotone functions on $\R^+$. This set is isometrically isomorphic, as normed cones, to the set of finite Borel measures on $[0,\infty]$. It follows that the convergences of the sequence of connections, the sequence of their representing functions and the sequence of their representing measures are equivalent. In addition, we obtain characterizations for a connection to be a mean. In fact, a connection is a mean if and only if it has norm 1.

Operator Connections and Borel Measures on the Unit Interval

A connection is a binary operation for positive operators satisfying the monotonicity, the transformer inequality and the joint-continuity from above. A mean is a normalized connection. In this paper, we show that there is a one-to-one correspondence between connections and finite Borel measures on the unit interval via a suitable integral representation. Every mean can be regarded as an average of weighted harmonic means. Moreover, we investigate decompositions of connections, means, symmetric connections and symmetric means.

Characterizations of Connections for Positive Operators

An axiomatic theory of operator connections and operator means was investigated by Kubo and Ando in 1980. A connection is a binary operation for positive operators satisfying the monotonicity, the transformer inequality and the joint-continuity from above. In this paper, we show that the joint-continuity assumption can be relaxed to some conditions which are weaker than the separate-continuity. This provides an easier way for checking whether a given binary opertion is a connection. Various axiomatic characterizations of connections are obtained. We show that the concavity is an important property of a connection by showing that the monotonicity can be replaced by the concavity or the midpoint concavity. Each operator connection induces a unique scalar connection. Moreover, there is an affine order isomorphism between connections and induced connections. This gives a natural viewpoint to define any named means.

Non-Commutative Geometry, Categories and Quantum Physics

After an introduction to some basic issues in non-commutative geometry (Gel'fand duality, spectral triples), we present a "panoramic view" of the status of our current research program on the use of categorical methods in the setting of A.Connes' non-commutative geometry: morphisms/categories of spectral triples, categorification of Gel'fand duality. We conclude with a summary of the expected applications of "categorical non-commutative geometry" to structural questions in relativistic quantum physics: (hyper)covariance, quantum space-time, (algebraic) quantum gravity.

A Remark on Gelfand Duality for Spectral Triples

We present a duality between the category of compact Riemannian spin manifolds (equipped with a given spin bundle and charge conjugation) with isometries as morphisms and a suitable "metric" category of spectral triples over commutative pre-C*-algebras. We also construct an embedding of a "quotient" of the category of spectral triples introduced in arXiv:math/0502583v1 into the latter metric category. Finally we discuss a further related duality in the case of orientation and spin-preserving maps between manifolds of fixed dimension.

Enriched Fell Bundles and Spaceoids

We propose a definition of involutive categorical bundle (Fell bundle) enriched in an involutive monoidal category and we argue that such a structure is a possible suitable environment for the formalization of different equivalent versions of spectral data for commutative C*-categories.

Modular Theory, Non-Commutative Geometry and Quantum Gravity

This paper contains the first written exposition of some ideas (announced in a previous survey) on an approach to quantum gravity based on Tomita-Takesaki modular theory and A. Connes non-commutative geometry aiming at the reconstruction of spectral geometries from an operational formalism of states and categories of observables in a covariant theory. Care has been taken to provide a coverage of the relevant background on modular theory, its applications in non-commutative geometry and physics and to the detailed discussion of the main foundational issues raised by the proposal.

A Horizontal Categorification of Gelfand Duality

In the setting of C*-categories, we provide a definition of "spectrum" of a commutative full C*-category as a one-dimensional unital saturated Fell bundle over a suitable groupoid (equivalence relation) and prove a categorical Gelfand duality theorem generalizing the usual Gelfand duality between the categories of commutative unital C*-algebras and compact Hausdorff spaces. Although many of the individual ingredients that appear along the way are well-known, the somehow unconventional way we "glue" them together seems to shed some new light on the subject.

After recalling in detail some basic definitions on Hilbert C*-bimodules, Morita equivalence and imprimitivity, we discuss a spectral reconstruction theorem for imprimitivity Hilbert C*-bimodules over commutative unital C*-algebras and consider some of its applications in the theory of commutative full C*-categories.

A Category of Spectral Triples and Discrete Groups with Length Function

In the context of A. Connes' spectral triples, a suitable notion of morphism is introduced. Discrete groups with length function provide a natural example for our definitions. A. Connes' construction of spectral triples for group algebras is a covariant functor from the category of discrete groups with length functions to that of spectral triples. Several interesting lines for future study of the categorical properties of spectral triples and their variants are suggested.

Holomorphic Sobolev spaces and the generalized Segal-Bargmann transform

We consider the generalized Segal-Bargmann transform C_t for a compact group K, introduced in B. C. Hall, J. Funct. Anal. 122 (1994), 103-151. Let K_C denote the complexification of K. We give a necessary-and-sufficient pointwise growth condition for a holomorphic function on K_C to be the image under C_t of a C-infinity function on K. We also characterize the image under C_t of Sobolev spaces on K. The proofs make use of a holomorphic version of the Sobolev embedding theorem.
