We present a general approach to a modular frame theory in C*-algebras and Hilbert C*-modules. The investigations rely on the idea of geometric dilation to standard Hilbert C*-modules over unital C*-algebras that possess orthonormal Hilbert…

In this paper we investigate a *-algebra $\cX$ of fractions associated with a unital complex *-algebra $\cA$. The algebra $\cX$ and its Hilbert space representations are used to prove abstract noncommutative strict Positivstellens\"atze for…

We study topological aspects of the category of abstract Cuntz semigroups, termed Cu. We provide a suitable setting in which we are able to uniformly control how to approach an element of a Cu-semigroup by a rapidly increasing sequence.…

Complexity rank for $C^*$-algebras was introduced by the second author and Yu for applications towards the UCT: very roughly, this rank is at most $n$ if you can repeatedly cut the $C^*$-algebra in half at most $n$ times, and end up with…

In this article, we extend a well known result about real rank zero C* Algebras to higher real rank C* Algebras. The main technique used here is similar to the method in which we approximate continuous functions using projections. What we…

We show that the $C^*$-algebra of a countable directed graph is singly generated. As a consequence, any $C^*$-algebra generated by a countable family of projections and partial isometries satisfying Cuntz-Krieger relations is singly…

In this paper, we study the boundary quotient C*-algebras associated to products of odometers. One of our main results shows that the boundary quotient C*-algebra of the standard product of $k$ odometers over $n_i$-letter alphabets ($1\le…

We show that every strongly $\mathbb{Z}$-graded C*-algebra (equivalently, every C*-algebra carrying a strongly continuous $\mathbb{T}$-action with full spectral subspaces) is a Cuntz--Pimsner algebra, and describe subalgebras and subspaces…

An algebra is said to be quasi-directly finite when any left-invertible element in its unitization is automatically right-invertible. It is an old observation of Kaplansky that the von Neumann algebra of a discrete group has this property;…

In this paper, we will define the reduced cross-sectional $C^*$-algebras of $C^*$-algebraic bundles over locally compact groups and show that if a $C^*$-algebraic bundle has the approximation property (defined similarly as in the discrete…

In this paper we show that for an almost finite minimal ample groupoid $G$, its reduced $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebra $C_r^*(G)$ has real rank zero and strict comparison even though $C_r^*(G)$ may not be nuclear in general. Moreover, if we further…

The completion $\overline{A}[\tau]$ of a locally convex *-algebra $A [ \tau ]$ with not jointly continuous multiplication is a *-vector space with partial multiplication $xy$ defined only for $x$ or $y \in A_{0}$, and it is called a…

It is shown that if A is a stably finite C*-algebra and E is a countably generated Hilbert A-module, then E gives rise to a compact element of the Cuntz semigroup if and only if E is algebraically finitely generated and projective. It…

We introduce the nuclear dimension of a C*-algebra; this is a noncommutative version of topological covering dimension based on a modification of the earlier concept of decomposition rank. Our notion behaves well with respect to inductive…

A C*-algebra is n-homogeneous (where n is finite) if every its nonzero irreducible representation acts on an n-dimensional Hilbert space. An elementary proof of Fell's characterization of n-homogeneous C*-algebras (by means of their…

A classification result is obtained for the C*-algebras that are (stably isomorphic to) inductive limits of 1-dimensional noncommutative CW complexes with trivial $K_1$-group. The classifying functor Cu is defined in terms of the Cuntz…

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…

We extend the usual theory of universal C*-algebras from generators and relations in order to allow some relations to be described using the strong operator topology. In particular, we can allow some infinite sum relations. We prove a…

Starting from an arbitrary endomorphism \alpha of a unital C*-algebra A we construct a crossed product. It is shown that the natural construction depends not only on the C*-dynamical system (A,\alpha) but also on the choice of an ideal…
