Abstract: The main goal of this paper is to find operator algebra variants of certain deep results of Stormer, Friedman and Russo, Choi and Effros, Effros and Stormer, Robertson and Youngson, Youngson, and others, concerning projections on C*-algebras and their ranges. (See papers of these authors referenced in the bibliography.) In particular we investigate the `bicontractive projection problem' and related questions in the category of operator algebras. To do this, we will add the ingredient of `real positivity' from recent papers of the first author with Read.

Review text

The authors endeavor to exhibit variants, in the framework of operator algebras which are either unital or have an approximate identity, of results by Størmer, Friedman and Russo, Effros and Choi, Effros and Størmer, and others, concerning projections and their ranges. Among other questions, they investigate the ``bicontractive projection problem, and related problems as well, using as main ingredient the concept of ``real positivity.
