Baer *-Rings

Více o knize

Focusing on the foundations of von Neumann algebras, this book systematically explores Baer *-Rings, emphasizing their ring-theoretic and lattice-theoretic aspects. It delves into the equivalence of projections, type decomposition, and connections to AW*-algebras and *-regular rings. Special topics include finite Baer *-rings, dimension theory, and matrix rings. Designed as both a textbook and a reference, it features over 400 exercises with notes and literature references, along with errata and author comments in the second printing.
