Abstract

Given a group G G , a field κ \kappa , and a factor set σ \sigma arising from a partial projective κ \kappa -representation of G G . This leads to the construction of a topological partial dynamical system (Ωσ,G,θ^) (\Omega_\sigma, G, \hat{\theta}) , where Ωσ \Omega_\sigma is a compact, totally disconnected Hausdorff space, and σ \sigma acts as a twist for θ^ \hat{\theta} . We show that the twisted partial group algebra κparσG \kappa_{par}^{\sigma} G can be realized as a crossed product L(Ωσ)(θ^,σ)G {\mathscr L}(\Omega_\sigma) \rtimes_{(\hat{\theta}, \sigma)} G , with L(Ωσ) {\mathscr L}(\Omega_\sigma) denoting the κ \kappa -algebra of locally constant functions Ωσκ \Omega_\sigma \to \kappa . The space Ωσ \Omega_\sigma corresponds to the spectrum of a unital commutative subalgebra in κparσG \kappa_{par}^{\sigma} G , generated by idempotents. By describing Ωσ \Omega_\sigma as a subspace of the Bernoulli space 2G 2^G , we examine conditions under which the spectral partial action θ^ \hat{\theta} is topologically free, impacting the ideal structure of κparσG \kappa_{par}^{\sigma} G . We further explore generating idempotent factor sets of G G and present conditions on them to ensure the topological freeness of θ^ \hat{\theta} . Inspired by Exel's semigroup S(G) \mathcal{S}(G) , which governs partial actions and representations of G G and relates to κparG \kappa_{par}G , we characterize the twisted partial group algebra κparσG \kappa_{par}^{\sigma}G as generated by a κ \kappa -cancellative inverse semigroup constructed from elements of Ωσ \Omega_\sigma . When Ωσ \Omega_\sigma is discrete, we demonstrate that κparσG \kappa_{par}^{\sigma} G decomposes into a product of matrix algebras over twisted subgroup algebras, generalizing known results for finite G G .
