On non-adjointable semi-Weyl and semi-B-Fredholm operators over C*-algebras

We extend further semi-A-Fredholm theory by generalizing the results from classical semi-Weyl theory on Hilbert spaces. Moreover, we obtain an analogue of the results from [17] in the setting of non-adjointable operators. Finally, we provide several examples on semi-A-Fredholm and semi- A-Weyl operators over a unital C*-algebra A. We give also the examples of semi-A-Fredholm operators with non-closed image

On excesses of frames

We show that any two frames in a separable Hilbert space that are dual to each other have the same excess. Some new relations for the analysis resp. synthesis operators of dual frames are also derived. We then prove that pseudo-dual frames and, in particular, approximately dual frames have the same excess. We also discuss various results on frames in which excesses of frames play an important role.Comment: 12 page

Deformations of quantum field theories on spacetimes with Killing vector fields

The recent construction and analysis of deformations of quantum field theories by warped convolutions is extended to a class of curved spacetimes. These spacetimes carry a family of wedge-like regions which share the essential causal properties of the Poincare transforms of the Rindler wedge in Minkowski space. In the setting of deformed quantum field theories, they play the role of typical localization regions of quantum fields and observables. As a concrete example of such a procedure, the deformation of the free Dirac field is studied.Comment: 35 pages, 3 figure

The Birman-Schwinger principle in von Neumann algebras of finite type

We introduce a relative index for a pair of dissipative operators in a von Neumann algebra of finite type and prove an analog of the Birman-Schwinger principle in this setting. As an application of this result, revisiting the Birman-Krein formula in the abstract scattering theory, we represent the de la Harpe-Skandalis determinant of the characteristic function of dissipative operators in the algebra in terms of the relative index
