In the reduced free product of C*-algebras (A,phi)=(A_1,phi_1)*(A_2,phi_2), A is shown to be purely infinite and simple under the hypothesis that A_1 is the crossed product of a C*-algebra by a discrete infinite group, phi_1 is well behaved…
Partial actions of discrete abelian groups can be used to construct both groupoid C*-algebras and partial crossed product algebras. In each case there is a natural notion of an analytic subalgebra. We show that for countable subgroups of…
We consider Exel's new construction of a crossed product of a C*-algebra A by an endomorphism \alpha. We prove that this crossed product is universal for an appropriate family of covariant representations, and we show that it can be…
We completely determine the ideal structures of the crossed products of Cuntz algebras by quasi-free actions of abelian groups and give another proof of A. Kishimoto's result on the simplicity of such crossed products. We also give a…
Cuntz and Li have defined a C*-algebra associated to any integral domain, using generators and relations, and proved that it is simple and purely infinite and that it is stably isomorphic to a crossed product of a commutative C*-algebra. We…
Let X be an infinite compact metric space with finite covering dimension and let h be a minimal homeomorphism of X. Let A be the associated crossed product C*-algebra. We show that A has tracial rank zero whenever the image of K_0 (A) in…
We characterize the ideals of the semicrossed product $C_0(X) \times_\phi \mathbb{Z}_+$ with left (resp. right) approximate unit.
Given a non-necessarily commutative unital ring $R$ and a unital partial representation $\Theta $ of a group $G$ into the Picard semigroup $\mathbf{PicS} (R)$ of the isomorphism classes of partially invertible $R$-bimodules, we construct an…
Suppose $\Gamma^{+}$ is the positive cone of a totally ordered abelian group $\Gamma$, and $(A,\Gamma^{+},\alpha)$ is a system consisting of a $C^*$-algebra $A$, an action $\alpha$ of $\Gamma^{+}$ by extendible endomorphisms of $A$. We…
Let $\Gamma^{+}$ be the positive cone of a totally ordered abelian discrete group $\Gamma$, and $\alpha$ an action of $\Gamma^{+}$ by extendible endomorphisms of a $C^*$-algebra $A$. We prove that the partial-isometric crossed product…
A product system E over a semigroup P is a family of Hilbert spaces {E_s:s\in P} together with multiplications E_s \times E_t\to E_{st}. We view E as a unitary- valued cocycle on P, and consider twisted crossed products A \times_{\beta,E} P…
We investigate structural properties of the reduced cross-sectional algebra $C^*_r(\mathcal{B})$ of a Fell bundle $\mathcal{B}$ over a discrete group $G$. Conditions allowing one to determine the ideal structure of $C^*_r(\mathcal{B})$ are…
Let $G$ be a discrete group acting on a unital $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal{A}$ by $*$-automorphisms. In this note, we show that the inclusion $\mathcal{A} \subseteq \mathcal{A} \rtimes_r G$ has the pure extension property (so that every pure…
We characterize the hypocompact radical of a semicrossed product in terms of properties of the dynamical system. We show that an element A of a semicrossed product is in the hypocompact radical if and only if the Fourier coefficients of A…
We show that if a groupoid graded ring has a certain nonzero ideal property and the principal component of the ring is commutative, then the intersection of a nonzero twosided ideal of the ring with the commutant of the principal component…
We develop the notion of independent resolutions for crossed products attached to totally disconnected dynamical systems. If such a crossed product admits an independent resolution of finite length, then its K-theory can be computed (at…
Starting from an arbitrary endomorphism \delta of a unital C*-algebra A we construct a crossed product. It is shown that the natural construction depends not only on the C*-dynamical system (A,\delta) but also on the choice of an ideal J…
Certain reduced free products of C*-algebras, (A,phi)=(A_1,phi_1)*(A_2,\phi_2), taken with respect to faithful states, at least one of which is not a trace, are shown to be purely infinite and simple. It is assumed that one of the A_i…
A collection of partial isometries whose range and initial projections satisfy a specified set of conditions often gives rise to a partial representation of a group. The C*-algebra generated by the partial isometries is thus a quotient of…
We study the crossed product $C^*$-algebra associated to injective endomorphisms, which turns out to be equivalent to study the crossed product by the dilated autormorphism. We prove that the dilation of the Bernoulli $p$-shift endomorphism…
