Geometry of State Spaces of Operator Algebras

"In the authors' previous book, State Spaces of Operator Algebras: Basic Theory, Orientations and C[superscript *]-products, the role of orientations was examined and all the prerequisites on C[superscript *]-algebras and von Neumann algebras, needed for this work, were provided in detail. These requisites, as well as all relevant definitions and results with reference back to State Spaces, are summarized in an appendix, further emphasizing the self-contained nature of this work.".

"Geometry of State Spaces of Operator Algebras is intended for specialists in operator algebras, as well as graduate students and mathematicians in other areas."--BOOK JACKET.
