Let $\cal M$ be a Banach C*-module over a C*-algebra $A$ carrying two $A$-valued inner products $< .,. >_1$, $<.,. >_2$ which induce equivalent to the given one norms on $\cal M$. Then the appropriate unital C*-algebras of adjointable…

We solve the isomorphism problem for essential unital $C^*$-algebra extensions of the form $0 \to \mathcal{K} \oplus \mathcal{K} \to E \xrightarrow{\pi} M_n \otimes C(\mathbb{T}) \to 0$. We then relate these to analogs of the Effros Shen AF…

In a recent paper, Pardo and the first named author introduced a class of C*-algebras which which are constructed from an action of a group on a graph. This class was shown to include many C*-algebras of interest, including all Kirchberg…

Bi-partite ribbon graphs arise in organising the large $N$ expansion of correlators in random matrix models and in the enumeration of observables in random tensor models. There is an algebra $\mathcal{K}(n)$, with basis given by bi-partite…

We study representations of Hilbert bimodules on pairs of Hilbert spaces. If $A$ is a C*-algebra and $\mathsf{X}$ is a right Hilbert $A$-module, we use such representations to faithfully represent the C*-algebras $\mathcal{K}_A(\mathsf{X})$…

We construct a sequence of $n-1$ cyclic exact sequences that can be used to compute the $K$-theory of the $C^\star$-algebra crossed product $A \ltimes {\mathbb Z}_n$.

The boundary map in K-theory arising from the Wiener-Hopf extension of a crossed product algebra with R is the Connes-Thom isomorphism. In this article the Wiener Hopf extension is combined with the Heisenberg group algebra to provide an…

In this paper we provide descriptions of the Whitehead groups with coefficients in a ring of the Hilbert modular group and its reduced version, as well as for the topological K-theory of $C^*$-algebras, after tensoring with $\mathbb{Q}$, by…

This partly expository paper first supplies the details of a method of factoring a stable C*-algebra A as B \otimes K in a canonical way. Then it is shown that this method can be put into a categorical framework, much like the…

Cuntz and Li have defined a C*-algebra associated to any integral domain, using generators and relations, and proved that it is simple and purely infinite and that it is stably isomorphic to a crossed product of a commutative C*-algebra. We…

Let A be a Hopf algebra and H a coalgebra. We shall describe and classify up to an isomorphism all Hopf algebras E that factorize through A and H: that is E is a Hopf algebra such that A is a Hopf subalgebra of E, H is a subcoalgebra in E…

Given a quasi-special endomorphism $\rho$ of a C*-algebra A with nontrivial center, we study an extension problem for automorphisms of A to a minimal cross-product B of A by $\rho$. Exploiting some aspects of the underlying generalized…

In this paper, we carry out the ``quantum double construction'' of the specific quantum groups we constructed earlier, namely, the ``quantum Heisenberg group algebra'' (A,\Delta) and its dual, the ``quantum Heisenberg group''…

Given a locally compact group $G$ and a unitary representation $\rho:G\to U({\mathcal H})$ on a Hilbert space ${\mathcal H}$, we construct a $C^*$-correspondence ${\mathcal E}(\rho)={\mathcal H}\otimes_{\mathbb C} C^*(G)$ over $C^*(G)$ and…

We introduce the notion of a self-similar action of a groupoid $G$ on a finite higher-rank graph. To these actions we associate a compactly aligned product system of Hilbert bimodules, and thereby obtain corresponding universal…

For every Hilbert bimodule over a C*-algebra, there are natural gauge actions of the circle on the associated Toeplitz algebra and Cuntz-Pimsner algebra, and hence natural dynamics obtained by lifting these gauge actions to actions of the…

Let $\Omega$ be a tiling space and let $G$ be the maximal group of rotations which fixes $\Omega$. Then the cohomology of $\Omega$ and $\Omega/G$ are both invariants which give useful geometric information about the tilings in $\Omega$. The…

We consider a construction of C*-algebras from continuous piecewise monotone maps on the circle which generalizes the crossed product construction for homeomorphisms and more generally the construction of Renault, Deaconu and…

We establish exact sequences in $KK$-theory for graded relative Cuntz-Pimsner algebras associated to nondegenerate $C^*$-correspondences. We use this to calculate the graded $K$-theory and $K$-homology of relative Cuntz-Krieger algebras of…

We begin with proving a formula relating the Hilbert series of a graded algebra $A$ and the Poincar\'{e} series for $A$ in two variables. This gives the Fr\"oberg formula in the case where the bigraded $Tor^A(k,k)$ is concentrated on the…
