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…

We extend the notion of a purely infinite simple C*-algebra to the context of unital rings, and we study its basic properties, specially those related to K-Theory. For instance, if $R$ is a purely infinite simple ring, then $K_0(R)^+=…

A covering of k-graphs (in the sense of Pask-Quigg-Raeburn) induces an embedding of universal C*-algebras. We show how to build a (k+1)-graph whose universal algebra encodes this embedding. More generally we show how to realise a direct…

A group equivariant $KK$-theory for rings will be defined and studied in analogy to Kasparov's $KK$-theory for $C^*$-algebras. It is a kind of linearization of the category of rings by allowing addition of homomorphisms, imposing also…

We study criteria for a ring - or more generally, for a small category - to be Gorenstein and for a module over it to be of finite projective dimension. The goal is to unify the universal coefficient theorems found in the literature and to…

We present the first range result for the total K-theory of C*-algebras. This invariant has been used successfully to classify certain separable, nuclear C*-algebras of real rank zero. Our results complete the classification of the…

In this note we propose that D-brane charges, in the presence of a topologically non-trivial B-field, are classified by the K-theory of an infinite dimensional C^*-algebra. In the case of B-fields whose curvature is pure torsion our…

The aim of this lecture is to present the concept of C-algebra and to illustrate its applications in two contexts: the study of reflection groups and their folding on the one hand, the structure of rational conformal field theories on the…

In this note we present a complete computation of the topological K-theory of the reduced C*-algebra of a semidirect product of the form $\Gamma=\mathbb{Z}^n\rtimes_\rho\mathbb{Z}/2$ with no further assumptions about of the conjugacy action…

Let a compact group G act on real or complex C*-algebras A and B, with A separable and B sigma-unital. We express the G-equivariant Kasparov groups KK_n(A,B) by algebraic K-groups of a certain additive category.

We show that the Dixmier-Douady theory of continuous field $C^*$-algebras with compact operators $\mathbb{K}$ as fibers extends significantly to a more general theory of fields with fibers $A\otimes \mathbb{K}$ where $A$ is a strongly…

Using a ``3 by 3 matrix trick'' we previously showed that multiplication in a C*-algebra A, an algebraic structure, is determined by the geometry of the C*-algebra of the 3 by 3 matrices with entries from A. As an application of this…

This paper investigates the $\mathrm{K}$-theory of twisted groupoid $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras. It is shown that a homotopy of twists on an ample groupoid satisfying the Baum-Connes conjecture with coefficients gives rise to an isomorphism…

We provide a homotopy theorist's point of view on $KK$- and $E$-theory for $C^{*}$-algebras. We construct stable $\infty$-categories representing these theories through a sequence of Dwyer-Kan localizations of the category of…

We survey three different ways in which K-theory in all its forms enters quantum field theory. In Part 1 we give a general argument which relates topological field theory in codimension two with twisted K-theory, and we illustrate with some…

We study the structure and compute the stable rank of C*-algebras of finite higher-rank graphs. We completely determine the stable rank of the C*-algebra when the k-graph either contains no cycle with an entrance, or is cofinal. We also…

We discuss $C^*$-algebras associated with several different natural shifts on the Hilbert space of the $s$-adic tree, continuing the analysis from [Banach J. Math. Anal. 19 (2025), 32, 30 pages, arXiv:2412.00854] and in particular we…

We develop a finite KKG-theory of C*-algebras following Arlettaz- H.Inassaridze's approach to finite algebraic K-theory. The Browder- Karoubi-Lambre's theorem on the orders of the elements for finite algebraic K-theory is extended to finite…

Given a $k$-graph $\Lambda$ and an element $p$ of $\NN^k$, we define the dual $k$-graph, $p\Lambda$. We show that when $\Lambda$ is row-finite and has no sources, the $C^*$-algebras $C^*(\Lambda)$ and $C^*(p\Lambda)$ coincide. We use this…

We discuss an interesting duality known to occur for certain complex reflection groups, namely the duality groups. Our main construction yields a concrete, representation theoretic realisation of this duality. This allows us to naturally…
