We construct a family of purely infinite $C^*$-algebras, $\mathcal{Q}^\lambda$ for $\lambda\in (0,1)$ that are classified by their $K$-groups. There is an action of the circle $\T$ with a unique ${\rm KMS}$ state $\psi$ on each…
Let $\gamma = (\gamma_1,...,\gamma_N)$, $N \geq 2$, be a system of proper contractions on a complete metric space. Then there exists a unique self-similar non-empty compact subset $K$. We consider the union ${\mathcal G} = \cup_{i=1}^N…
To any periodic, unital and full C*-dynamical system (A, \alpha, R) an invertible operator s acting on the Banach space of trace functionals of the fixed point algebra is canonically associated. KMS states correspond to positive…
Let $A$ be an $N \times N $ irreducible matrix with entries in $\{0,1\}$. We define the topological Markov Dyck shift $D_A$ to be a nonsofic subshift consisting of the $2N$ brackets $(_1,...,(_N,)_1,...,)_N$ with both standard bracket rule…
We introduce a class of subshifts under the name of "standard one-counter shifts". The standard one-counter shifts are the Markov coded systems of certain Markov codes that belong to the family of one-counter languages. We study topological…
To an $r$-dimensional subshift of finite type satisfying certain special properties we associate a $C^*$-algebra $\cA$. This algebra is a higher rank version of a Cuntz-Krieger algebra. In particular, it is simple, purely infinite and…
By using C*-correspondences and Cuntz-Pimsner algebras, we associate to every subshift (also called a shift space) $X$ a C*-algebra $O_X$, which is a generalization of the Cuntz-Krieger algebras. We show that $O_X$ is the universal…
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…
We associate with the ring $R$ of algebraic integers in a number field a C*-algebra $\cT[R]$. It is an extension of the ring C*-algebra $\cA[R]$ studied previously by the first named author in collaboration with X.Li. In contrast to…
We study the KMS states of the C*-algebra of a strongly connected finite k-graph. We find that there is only one 1-parameter subgroup of the gauge action that can admit a KMS state. The extreme KMS states for this preferred dynamics are…
Cuntz algebra $\mathcal O_2$ is the universal $C^*$-algebra generated by two isometries $s_1, s_2$ satisfying $s_1s_1^*+s_2s_2^*=1$. This is separable, simple, infinite $C^*$-algebra containing a copy of any nuclear $C^*$-algebra. The…
We address the classification problem for graph $C^*$-algebras of finite graphs (finitely many edges and vertices), containing the class of Cuntz-Krieger algebras as a prominent special case. Contrasting earlier work, we do not assume that…
We give a notion of quantum automorphism group of graph C*-algebras without sink at critical inverse temperature. This is defined to be the universal object of a category of CQG's having a linear action in the sense of [11] and preserving…
Consider a higher-rank graph of rank k. Both the Cuntz-Krieger algebra and the Toeplitz-Cuntz-Krieger algebra of the graph carry natural gauge actions of the torus T^k, and restricting these gauge actions to one-parameter subgroups of T^k…
We consider a finite directed graph E, and the gauge action on its Toeplitz-Cuntz-Krieger algebra, viewed as an action of R. For inverse temperatures larger than a critical value \beta_c, we give an explicit construction of all the…
Iteration of a rational function $R$ gives a complex dynamical system on the Riemann sphere. We introduce a $C^*$-algebra ${\mathcal O}_R$ associated with $R$ as a Cuntz-Pimsner algebra of a Hilbert bimodule over the algebra $A = C(J_R)$ of…
We investigate $C^*$-algebras associated with row-finite topological higher-rank graphs with no source, which are based on product system $C^*$-algebras. We prove the Cuntz-Krieger uniqueness theorem, and provide the condition of simplicity…
The usual crossed product construction which associates to the homeomorphism $T$ of the locally compact space $X$ the C$^*$-algebra $C^*(X,T)$ is extended to the case of a partial local homeomorphism $T$. For example, the Cuntz-Krieger…
We introduce the notion of confined subalgebras in the context of the group von Neumann algebra. We also define Uniformly Recurrent States -- an operator-algebraic analog of Uniformly Recurrent Subgroups. Using this framework, we show that…
We exhibit a countably infinite family of simple, separable, nuclear, and mutually non-isomorphic C*-algebras which agree on K-theory and traces. The algebras do not absorb the Jiang-Su algebra Z tensorially, answering a question of N. C.…
