In this article we use semigroupoids to describe a notion of algebraic bundles, mostly motivated by Fell ($C^*$-algebraic) bundles, and the sectional algebras associated to them. As the main motivational example, Steinberg algebras may be…

Convolution semigroups of states on a quantum group form the natural noncommutative analogue of convolution semigroups of probability measures on a locally compact group. Here we initiate a theory of weakly continuous convolution semigroups…

Let $P$ be a unital subsemigroup of a group $G$. We propose an approach to $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras associated to product systems over $P$. We call the $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebra of a given product system $\mathcal{E}$ its covariance algebra and…

In this paper, we investigate the notion of approximate biprojectivity for semigroup algebras and for some Banach algebras related to semigroup algebras. We show that $\ell^{1}(S)$ is approximately biprojective if and only if $\ell^{1}(S)$…

In this note, we will show that the twisted convolution algebra $L^1_{\alpha,\omega}({\sf G},\mathfrak A)$ associated to a twisted action of a locally compact group ${\sf G}$ on a $C^*$-algebra $\mathfrak A$ has the following property:…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group and $A$ be a commutative semisimple Banach algebra over the scalar field $\mathbb{C}$. The correlation between different types of $BSE$- Banach algebras $A$, and the Banach algebras $L^{1}(G, A)$ are…

For any affine semigroup $S$ the set $S\cup\{\infty\}$ has a natural structure of semigroup, additionally if $S$ is endowed with the discrete topology, the semigroup $S\cup\{\infty\}$ can be studied as the one-point compactification of $S$.…

Given a (reduced) locally compact quantum group $A$, we can consider the convolution algebra $L^1(A)$ (which can be identified as the predual of the von Neumann algebra form of $A$). It is conjectured that $L^1(A)$ is operator biprojective…

For any finite abelian group $G$ and commutative unitary ring $R$, by $R[G]$ we denote the group algebra over $R$. Let $T=(g_1,\ldots,g_{\ell})$ be a sequence over the group $G$. We say $T$ is algebraically zero-sum free over R if…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $G'$ its commutator subgroup. By a sequence over $G$, we mean a finite unordered sequence of terms from $G$, where repetition is allowed, and we say that it is a product-one sequence if its terms can be ordered…

Let $G$ be a finite group. A finite unordered sequence $S = g_1 \boldsymbol{\cdot} \ldots \boldsymbol{\cdot} g_{\ell}$ of terms from $G$, where repetition is allowed, is a product-one sequence if its terms can be ordered such that their…

Let B be a sigma-unital C*-algebra. We show that every strongly continuous E_0-semigroup on the algebra of adjointable operators on a full Hilbert B-module E gives rise to a full continuous product system of correspondences over B. We show…

Let $A$ be a commutative ring, and assume every non-trivial ideal of $A$ has finite-index. We show that if ${\rm{SL}}_n(A)$ has bounded elementary generation then every conjugation-invariant norm on it is either discrete or precompact. If…

We establish simplicial triviality of the convolution algebra $\ell^1(S)$, where $S$ is a band semigroup. This generalizes results of the first author [Glasgow Math. J. 2005, Houston J. Math. 2010]. To do so, we show that the cyclic…

For a bialgebra $L$ coacting on a $\Bbbk$-algebra $A$, a classical result states that $A$ is a right $L$-comodule algebra if and only if $A$ is an algebra in the monoidal category $\mathcal{M}^{L}$ of right $L$-comodules; the former notion…

Let $S$ be a Rees semigroup, and let $\ell^1(S)$ be its convolution semigroup algebra. Using Morita equivalence we show that bounded Hochschild homology and cohomology of $\ell^1(S)$ is isomorphic to those of the underlying discrete group…

We investigate the representation theory of the crossed-product C*-algebra associated to a compact group G acting on a locally compact space X when the stability subgroups vary discontinuously. Our main result applies when G has a principal…

Let $\mathcal{S}$ be the semigroup $\mathcal{S}=\sum^{\oplus k}_{i=1}\Sc{S}_i$, where for each $i\in I$, $\mathcal{S}_i$ is a countable subsemigroup of the additive semigroup $\B{R}_+$ containing 0. We consider representations of…

Starting from a uniquely ergodic action of a locally compact group $G$ on a compact space $X_0$, we consider non-commutative skew-product extensions of the dynamics, on the crossed product $C(X_0)\rtimes_\alpha\mathbb{Z}$, through a…

Let A be a dense Frechet *-subalgebra of a C*-algebra B. (We do not require Frechet algebras to be m-convex.) Let G be a Lie group, not necessarily con- nected, which acts on both $A$ and B by *-automorphisms, and let \s be a sub-…
