Abstract

Let (A,G,α)(\mathcal{A},G,\alpha) be a CC^*-dynamical system. Unique extension properties for the CC^*-inclusion AAα,rG\mathcal{A} \subseteq \mathcal{A} \rtimes_{\alpha,r} G have been studied extensively. In this paper, we investigate unique extension properties for some other natural ``dynamical'' CC^*-inclusions, namely: \bullet Cr(G)Aα,rGC_r^*(G) \subseteq \mathcal{A} \rtimes_{\alpha,r} G; \bullet AGA\mathcal{A}^G \subseteq \mathcal{A}, where AG\mathcal{A}^G is the fixed-point subalgebra; \bullet Z(A)cAα,rGZ(\mathcal{A})^c \subseteq \mathcal{A} \rtimes_{\alpha,r} G, where Z(A)c=Z(A)(Aα,rG)Z(\mathcal{A})^c = Z(\mathcal{A})' \cap (\mathcal{A} \rtimes_{\alpha,r} G) is the relative commutant of the center. Our hope is that a larger selection of examples will enable progress on some lingering open problems, in particular (1) the relationship between aperiodicity and the unique pseudo-expectation property and (2) the relationship between the faithful unique pseudo-expectation property and norming.
