We construct a functor that maps $C^*$-correspondences to their Cuntz-Pimsner algebras. The objects in our domain category are $C^*$-correspondences, and the morphisms are the isomorphism classes of $C^*$-correspondences satisfying certain…
We introduce a method to define $C^*$-algebras from $C^*$-correspondences. Our construction generalizes Cuntz-Pimsner algebras, crossed products by Hilbert $C^*$-modules, and graph algebras.
We construct a functor that maps $C^*$-correspondences to their Cuntz-Pimsner algebras. Applications include a generalization of the well-known result of Muhly and Solel: Morita equivalent $C^*$-correspondences have Morita equivalent…
Given two correspondences X and Y, we show that (under mild hypotheses) the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra of the tensor product of X and Y embeds as a certain subalgebra of the tensor product of the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra of X and the Cuntz=Pimsner…
We interpret the construction of relative Cuntz-Pimsner algebras of correspondences in terms of the correspondence bicategory, as a reflector into a certain sub-bicategory. This generalises a previous characterisation of absolute…
In prior work we described how the Cuntz-Pimsner construction may be viewed as a functor. The domain of this functor is a category whose objects are $C^*$-correspondences and morphisms are isomorphism classes of certain pairs comprised of a…
We construct $C^\ast$-categories that are anologues of the categories used in controlled algebraic $K$-theory. We then show that the reduced $C^\ast$-algebra of a finitely presented group and an associated controlled $C^\ast$-category have…
A functor from the category of directed trees with inclusions to the category of commutative C*-algebras with injective *-homomorphisms is constructed. This is used to define a functor from the category of directed graphs with inclusions to…
We investigate how a correspondence coaction gives rise to a coaction on the associated Cuntz-Pimsner algebra. We apply this to recover a recent result of Hao and Ng concerning Cuntz-Pimsner algebras of crossed products of correspondences…
We introduce a new method of expressing a $k$-graph $C^*$-algebra as a Cuntz-Pimsner algebra. Kumjian, Pask, and Sims have done this directly, using a linking algebra approach and a $(k-1)$-graph algebra. This can be iterated downward. Our…
As part of the study of correspondence functors, the present paper investigates their tensor product and proves some of its main properties. In particular, the correspondence functor associated to a finite lattice has the structure of a…
We introduce positive correspondences as right C*-modules with left actions given by completely positive maps. Positive correspondences form a semi-category that contains the C*-correspondence (Enchilada) category as a "retract". Kasparov's…
When a locally compact group acts on a C*-correspondence, it also acts on the associated Cuntz-Pimsner algebra in a natural way. Hao and Ng have shown that when the group is amenable the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra of the crossed product…
Associating graph algebras to directed graphs leads to both covariant and contravariant functors from suitable categories of graphs to the category k-Alg of algebras and algebra homomorphisms. As both functors are often used at the same…
We define the notion of a $\Lambda$-system of $C^*$-correspondences associated to a higher-rank graph $\Lambda$. Roughly speaking, such a system assigns to each vertex of $\Lambda$ a $C^*$-algebra, and to each path in $\Lambda$ a…
We interpret several constructions with C*-algebras as colimits in the bicategory of correspondences. This includes crossed products for actions of groups and crossed modules, Cuntz-Pimsner algebras of proper product systems, direct sums…
For a closed subgroup of a locally compact group the Rieffel induction process gives rise to a $C^*$-correspondence over the $C^*$-algebra of the subgroup. We study the associated Cuntz-Pimsner algebra and show that, by varying the subgroup…
A class of C*-algebras is described for which the homomorphism from $C_0(0,1]$ to the algebra may be classified by means of the Cuntz semigroup functor. Examples are given of algebras--simple and non-simple--for which this classification…
It is known that a topological correspondence \((X,\lambda)\) from a locally compact groupoid with a Haar system \((G,\alpha)\) to another one, \((H,\beta)\), produces a \(\textrm{C}^*\)-correspondence \(\mathcal{H}(X,\lambda)\) from…
In this paper we generalize the notion of Cuntz-Pimsner algebras of $C^*$-correspondences to the setting of subproduct systems. The construction is justified in several ways, including the Morita equivalence of the operator algebras under…
