Abstract
AbstractC*-algebrasAof compact operators are characterized as those C*-algebras of coefficients of Hilbert C*-modules for which (i) every boundedA-linear operator between two HilbertA-modules possesses an adjoint operator, (ii) the kernels of all bounded A-linear operators between HilbertA-modules are orthogonal summands, (iii) the images of all boundedA-linear operators with closed range between HilbertA-modules are orthogonal summands, and (iv) for every HilbertA-module every HilbertA-submodule is a topological summand. Thus, the theory of Hilbert C*-modules over C*-algebras of compact operators has similarities with the theory of Hilbert spaces. In passing, we obtain a general closed graph theorem for bounded module operators on arbitrary Hilbert C*-modules.
