After recalling in detail some basic definitions on Hilbert C*-bimodules, Morita equivalence and imprimitivity, we discuss a spectral reconstruction theorem for imprimitivity Hilbert C*-bimodules over commutative unital C*-algebras and…

We define a bicategory with \'etale, locally compact groupoids as objects and suitable correspondences, that is, spaces with two commuting actions as arrows; the 2-arrows are injective, equivariant continuous maps. We prove that the usual…

We construct a weak conditional expectation from the section C*-algebra of a Fell bundle over a unital inverse semigroup to its unit fibre. We use this to define the reduced C*-algebra of the Fell bundle. We study when the reduced…

We provide some background on the category of classifiable $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras, whose objects are infinite-dimensional, simple, separable, unital $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras that have finite nuclear dimension and satisfy the universal…

In this paper we show that the $\mathrm{K}$-homology groups of a separable C*-algebra can be enriched with additional descriptive set-theoretic information, and regarded as definable groups. Using a definable version of the Universal…

We define partial product systems over N. They generalise product systems over N and Fell bundles over Z. We define Toeplitz C*-algebras and relative Cuntz-Pimsner algebras for them and show that the section C*-algebra of a Fell bundle over…

Generalizing Duality Theorem of H. de Vries, we define a category which is dually equivalent to the category of all locally compact Hausdorff spaces and all perfect maps between them.

We construct a large class of morphisms, which we call partial morphisms, of groupoids that induce $*$-morphisms of maximal and minimal groupoid $C^*$-algebras. We show that the association of a groupoid to its maximal (minimal) groupoid…

Let $\Gamma$ be a discrete group. To every ideal in $\ell^{\infty}(\G)$ we associate a C$^*$-algebra completion of the group ring that encapsulates the unitary representations with matrix coefficients belonging to the ideal. The general…

Given a C*-algebra B which is graded over a discrete group G we consider ideals of B which are invariant under the projections onto each of the grading subspaces. If G is exact and the standard conditional expectation of B is faithful we…

For coalgebras $C$ over a field, we study when the categories ${}^C\Mm$ of left $C$-comodules and $\Mm^C$ of right $C$-comodules are symmetric categories, in the sense that there is a duality between the categories of finitely presented…

We study Fell bundles on groupoids from the viewpoint of quantale theory. Given any saturated upper semicontinuous Fell bundle $\pi:E\to G$ on an \'etale groupoid $G$ with $G_0$ locally compact Hausdorff, equipped with a suitable completion…

C*-endomorphisms arising from superselection structures with non-trivial centre define a 'rank' and a 'first Chern class'. Crossed products by such endomorphisms involve the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra of a vector bundle having the…

In this paper we give a simple proof of the maximality of dual coactions on full cross-sectional C*-algebras of Fell bundles over locally compact groups. As applications we extend certain exotic crossed-product functors in the sense of…

We provide the rigorous foundations for a categorical approach to the classification of C*-dynamics up to cocycle conjugacy. Given a locally compact group $G$, we consider a category of (twisted) $G$-C*-algebras, where morphisms between two…

We define notions of semi-saturatedness and orthogonality for a Fell bundle over a quasi-lattice ordered group. We show that a compactly aligned product system of Hilbert bimodules can be naturally extended to a semi-saturated and…

A $\mathcal{C}$-set is a functor from the category $\mathcal{C}$ to the category of finite sets and functions. The category of $\mathcal{C}$-sets, $\mathcal{C} - \operatorname*{set}$, is defined as the category whose objects are…

Examples of Fell algebras with compact spectrum and trivial Dixmier-Douady invariant are constructed to illustrate differences with the case of continuous trace $C^*$-algebras. At the level of the spectrum, this translates to only assuming…

We construct a noncommutative geometry with generalised `tangent bundle' from Fell bundle $C^*$-categories ($E$) beginning by replacing pair groupoid objects (points) with objects in $E$. This provides a categorification of a certain class…

We carry out a systematic, topos-theoretically inspired, investigation of Wallman compactifications with a particular emphasis on their relations with Gelfand spectra and Stone-Cech compactifications. In addition to proving several specific…
