In this paper we present a new and natural interpretation of subhypergroups in a partially ordered algebra. Then we study their connection with corresponding crisp concepts through their newly defined Q-cuts. The theorems proved also highly generalized the existing ones.

If the Wiener-Hopf $C^*$-algebra W(G,M) for a discrete group G with a semigroup M has the uniqueness property, then the structure of it is to some extent independent of the choice of isometries on a Hilbert space. In this paper we show that if the Wiener-Hopf $C^*$-algebra W(G,M) of a partially ordered group G with the positive cone M has the uniqueness property, then (G,M) is weakly unperforated. We also prove that the Wiener-Hopf $C^*$-algebra W($\mathbb{Z}$, M) of subsemigroup generating the integer group $\mathbb{Z}$ is isomorphic to the Toeplitz algebra, but W($\mathbb{Z}$, M) does not have the uniqueness property except the case M = $\mathbb{N}$.

In this paper, we study ${\alpha}$-completely positive maps between locally $C^*$-algebras. As a generalization of a completely positive map, an ${\alpha}$-completely positive map produces a Krein space with indefinite metric, which is useful for the study of massless or gauge fields. We construct a KSGNS type representation associated to an ${\alpha}$-completely positive map of a locally $C^*$-algebra on a Krein locally $C^*$-module. Using this construction, we establish the Radon-Nikod$\acute{y}$m type theorem for ${\alpha}$-completely positive maps on locally $C^*$-algebras. As an application, we study an extremal problem in the partially ordered cone of ${\alpha}$-completely positive maps on a locally $C^*$-algebra.
