Geometry of the sphere of a Hilbert module
The sphere SX = {x ∈ X:〈x, x〉 = 1} of a right Hilbert C*-module X over a unital C*-algebra B is studied using differential geometric techniques. An action of the unitary group of the algebra ℒ B(X) of adjointable B-module operators of X makes SX a homogeneous space of this group. A reductive structu...
