Let $\Gamma$ be a countable group and $(X, \Gamma)$ a compact topological dynamical system. We study the question of the existence of an intermediate $C^*$-subalgebra $\mathcal{A}$ $$C^{*}_{r}(\Gamma)<\mathcal{A}<C(X)\rtimes_r\Gamma,$$…

The dynamics of a one-sided subshift $\mathsf{X}$ can be modeled by a set of partially defined bijections. From this data we define an inverse semigroup $\mathcal{S}_{\mathsf{X}}$ and show that it has many interesting properties. We prove…

The cone of lower semicontinuous traces is studied with a view to its use as an invariant. Its properties include compactness, Hausdorffness, and continuity with respect to inductive limits. A suitable notion of dual cone is given. The cone…

We study uniform perturbations of crossed product C$^*$-algebras by amenable groups. Given a unital inclusion of C$^*$-algebras $C\subseteq D$ and sufficiently close separable intermediate C$^*$-subalgebras $A$, $B$ for this inclusion with…

A C*-algebra is determined to a great extent by the partial order of its commutative C*-algebras. We study order-theoretic properties of this dcpo. Many properties coincide: the dcpo is, equivalently, algebraic, continuous, meet-continuous,…

For every finite dimensional Lie supergroup $(G,\mathfrak g)$, we define a $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal A:=\mathcal A(G,\mathfrak g)$, and show that there exists a canonical bijective correspondence between unitary representations of…

We construct reduced and full semigroup C*-algebras for left cancellative semigroups. Our new construction covers particular cases already considered by A. Nica and also Toeplitz algebras attached to rings of integers in number fields due…

The completion of a (normed) $C^*$-algebra $A_0[\| \cdot \|_0]$ with respect to a locally convex topology $\tau$ on $A_0$ that makes the multiplication of $A_0$ separately continuous is, in general, a quasi *-algebra, and not a locally…

We consider a locally compact Hausdorff groupoid $G$ which is graded over a discrete group. Then the fibre over the identity is an open and closed subgroupoid $G_e$. We show that both the full and reduced C*-algebras of this subgroupoid…

We characterize relatively norm compact sets in the regular $C^*$-algebra of finitely generated Coxeter groups using a geometrically defined positive semigroup acting on the algebra.

We initiate the study of the internal structure of C*-algebras associated to a left cancellative semigroup in which any two principal right ideals are either disjoint or intersect in another principal right ideal; these are variously called…

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…

We introduce and study strongly self-absorbing actions of locally compact groups on C*-algebras. This is an equivariant generalization of a strongly self-absorbing C*-algebra to the setting of C*-dynamical systems. The main result is the…

We consider C*-algebras associated with stable and unstable equivalence in hyperbolic dynamical systems known as Smale spaces. These systems include shifts of finite type, in which case these C*-algebras are both AF-algebras. These algebras…

In this paper, we characterize $\ell$-open and $\ell$-closed $C^*$-algebras and deduce that $\ell$-open $C^*$-algebras are $\ell$-closed, as conjectured by Blackadar. Moreover, we show that a commutative unital $C^*$-algebra is $\ell$-open…

We construct compact polyhedra with triangular faces whose links are generalized 3-gons. They are interesting compact spaces covered by Euclidean buildings of type $A_2$. Those spaces give us two-dimensional subshifts, which can be used to…

We define the local multiplier module of a Hilbert module in analogy to the local multiplier algebra for $C^*$-algebras. We use properties of the local multiplier module to lift non-closed actions on $C^*$-algebras by Hilbert bimodules to…

A surjective endomorphism or, more generally, a polymorphism in the sense of \cite{SV}, of a compact abelian group $H$ induces a transformation of $L^2(H)$. We study the C*-algebra generated by this operator together with the algebra of…

We consider graphs E which have been obtained by adding one or more sinks to a fixed directed graph G. We classify the C*-algebra of E up to a very strong equivalence relation, which insists, loosely speaking, that C*(G) is kept fixed. The…

We consider a locally compact Hausdorff groupoid $G$, and twist by a more general locally compact Hausdorff abelian group $\Gamma$ rather than the complex unit circle $\mathbb{T}$. We investigate the construction of $C^*$-algebras in…
