Commutative C∗C^*-algebras generated by Toeplitz operators on the super unit ball

We extend known results about commutative $C^*$-algebras generated Toeplitz operators over the unit ball to the supermanifold setup. This is obtained by constructing commutative $C^*$-algebras of super Toeplitz operators over the super ball $\mathbb{B}^{p|q}$ and the super Siegel domain $\mathbb{U}^{p|q}$ that naturally generalize the previous results for the unit ball and the Siegel domain. In particular, we obtain one such commutative $C^*$-algebra for each even maximal Abelian subgroup of automorphisms of the super ball.Comment: To appear in Advances in Applied Clifford Algebra

The Shilov boundary for a qq-analog of the holomorphic functions on the unit ball of 2×22 \times 2 symmetric matrices

We describe the Shilov boundary for a $q$-analog of the algebra of holomorphic functions on the unit ball in the space of symmetric $2 \times 2$ matrices.Comment: 14 page

Scattering Rule in Soliton Cellular Automaton associated with Crystal Base of Uq(D4(3))U_q(D_4^{(3)})

In terms of the crystal base of a quantum affine algebra $U_q(\mathfrak{g})$, we study a soliton cellular automaton (SCA) associated with the exceptional affine Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}=D_4^{(3)}$. The solitons therein are labeled by the crystals of quantum affine algebra $U_q(A_1^{(1)})$. The scatteing rule is identified with the combinatorial $R$ matrix for $U_q(A_1^{(1)})$-crystals. Remarkably, the phase shifts in our SCA are given by {\em 3-times} of those in the well-known box-ball system.Comment: 25 page

Maximum modulus principle for "holomorphic functions" on the quantum matrix ball

We describe the Shilov boundary ideal for a q-analog of the algebra of holomorphic functions on the unit ball in the space of $n\times n$ matrices and show that its $C^*$-envelope is isomorphic to the $C^*$-algebra of continuous functions on the quantum unitary group $U_q(n)$.Comment: 27 pages,v.3:accepted for publication in Journal Funct.Anal., crrected som typos, proof of Lemma 10 changed, a reference added, an acknowledgement adde

Multipliers of embedded discs

We consider a number of examples of multiplier algebras on Hilbert spaces associated to discs embedded into a complex ball in order to examine the isomorphism problem for multiplier algebras on complete Nevanlinna-Pick reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. In particular, we exhibit uncountably many discs in the ball of $\ell^2$ which are multiplier biholomorphic but have non-isomorphic multiplier algebras. We also show that there are closed discs in the ball of $\ell^2$ which are varieties, and examine their multiplier algebras. In finite balls, we provide a counterpoint to a result of Alpay, Putinar and Vinnikov by providing a proper rational biholomorphism of the disc onto a variety $V$ in $\mathbb B_2$ such that the multiplier algebra is not all of $H^\infty(V)$. We also show that the transversality property, which is one of their hypotheses, is a consequence of the smoothness that they require.Comment: 34 pages; the earlier version relied on a result of Davidson and Pitts that the fibre of the maximal ideal space of the multiplier algebra over a point in the open ball consists only of point evaluation. This result fails for $d = \infty$, and has necessitated some changes; to appear in Complex Analysis and Operator Theor

Box ball system associated with antisymmetric tensor crystals

A new box ball system associated with an antisymmetric tensor crystal of the quantum affine algebra of type A is considered. This includes the so-called colored box ball system with capacity 1 as the simplest case. Infinite number of conserved quantities are constructed and the scattering rule of two olitons are given explicitly.Comment: 15 page
