Let T be the circle and A be a T-C*-algebra. Then the T-equivariant K-theory of A is a module over the representation ring of the circle. The latter is a Laurent polynomial ring. Using the support of the module as an invariant, and…

Extending the work of Cuntz and Vershik, we develop a general notion of independence for commuting group endomorphisms. Based on this concept, we initiate the study of irreversible algebraic dynamical systems, which can be thought of as…

We present an axiomatic frame (in Prt I of this book) in which many results of the K-theory for C*-algebras are proved. Then we construct an example for this axiomatic theory (in Part II), which generalizes the classical theory for…

It is shown that a C*-algebra generated by any faithful covariant representation of a Hilbert bimodule X is canonically isomorphic to the crossed product associated to X provided that Rieffel's induced representation functor X-ind is…

We compute the K-theory of ring C*-algebras for polynomial rings over finite fields. The key ingredient is a duality theorem which we had obtained in a previous paper. It allows us to show that the K-theory of these algebras has a ring…

We consider Exel's new construction of a crossed product of a C*-algebra A by an endomorphism \alpha. We prove that this crossed product is universal for an appropriate family of covariant representations, and we show that it can be…

For each 3-dimensional non-Lie Leibniz algebra over the complex numbers, we describe the algebra of polynomial invariants and determine its group of automorphisms. As a consequence, we establish that any two non-nilpotent 3-dimensional…

We study C*-algebra endomorphims which are special in a weaker sense w.r.t. the notion introduced by Doplicher and Roberts. We assign to such endomorphisms a geometrical invariant, representing a cohomological obstruction for them to be…

For special universal $C^*$-algebras associated to $k$-semigraphs we present the universal representations of these algebras, prove a Cuntz--Krieger uniqueness theorem, and compute the $K$-theory. These $C^*$-algebras seem to be the most…

Given a finitely aligned $k$-graph $\Lambda$, we let $\Lambda^i$ denote the $(k-1)$-graph formed by removing all edges of degree $e_i$ from $\Lambda$. We show that the Toeplitz-Cuntz-Krieger algebra of $\Lambda$, denoted by…

We study semigroup algebras associated to lattice polytopes. We begin by generalizing and refining work of Hochster, and describe the volume maps of these algebras, that is, their fundamental classes, in terms of Parseval-Rayleigh…

We establish the Borel computability of various C$^*$-algebra invariants, including the Elliott invariant and the Cuntz semigroup. As applications we deduce that AF algebras are classifiable by countable structures, and that a conjecture of…

We prove that the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra O(E) of a vector bundle E over a compact metrizable space X is determined up to an isomorphism of C(X)-algebras by the ideal (1-[E])K(X) of the K-theory ring K(X). Moreover, if E and F are vector…

We describe both the Bunce-Deddens C*-algebras and their Toeplitz versions, as crossed products of commutative C*-algebras by partial automorphisms. In the latter case, the commutative algebra has, as its spectrum, the union of the Cantor…

Suppose a C*-algebra A acts by adjointable operators on a Hilbert A-module X. Pimsner constructed a C*-algebra O_X which includes, for particular choices of X, crossed products of A by Z, the Cuntz algebras O_n, and the Cuntz-Krieger…

In this article we survey some of the recent goings-on in the classification programme of C$^*$-algebras, following the interesting link found between the Cuntz semigroup and the classical Elliott invariant and the fact that the Elliott…

Given a compact space X and two commuting continuous open surjective maps sigma_1, sigma_2 : X --> X, we construct certain C*-algebras that reflect the dynamics of the N^2-action. When the maps sigma_1, sigma_2 are local homeomorphisms,…

Given a spectral triple on a $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal A$ together with a unital injective endomorphism $\alpha$, the problem of defining a suitable crossed product $C^*$-algebra endowed with a spectral triple is addressed. The proposed…

The classical Cuntz semigroup has an important role in the study of C*-algebras, being one of the main invariants used to classify recalcitrant C*-algebras up to isomorphism. We consider C*-algebras that have Hopf algebra structure, and…

We provide a Cuntz-Pimsner model for graph of groups $C^*$-algebras. This allows us to compute the $K$-theory of a range of examples and show that graph of groups $C^*$-algebras can be realised as Exel-Pardo algebras. We also make a…
