Let $H$ be a separable Hilbert space with a fixed orthonormal basis. Let $\mathbb B^{(k)}(H)$ denote the set of operators, whose matrices have no more than $k$ non-zero entries in each line and in each column. The closure of the union (over…

In the theory of C*-algebras, interesting noncommutative structures arise as deformations of the tensor product. For instance, the rotation algebra may be seen as a scalar twist deformation of the tensor product of the functions on the…

For a locally compact Hausdorff space $X$ and a $C^*$-algebra $A$ with only finitely many closed ideals, we discuss a characterization of closed ideals of $C_0(X,A) $ in terms of closed ideals of $A$ and certain (compatible) closed…

Let $K$ be a compact metric space and let $\gamma = (\gamma_1, \dots, \gamma_n)$ be a system of proper contractions on $K$. We study a C*-algebra $\mathcal{MC}_{\gamma_1, \dots, \gamma_n}$ generated by all multiplication operators by…

We study $C^*$-algebras arising from $C^*$-correspondences, which was introduced by the author. We prove the gauge-invariant uniqueness theorem, and obtain conditions for our $C^*$-algebras to be nuclear, exact, or satisfy the Universal…

We define a broad class of crossed product C*-algebras of the form C(G)xG, where G is a discrete countable amenable residually finite group, and G is a profinite completion of G. We show that they are unital separable simple nuclear…

We give a complete description of which unital graph C*-algebras are semiprojective, and use it to disprove two conjectures by Blackadar. To do so, we perform a detailed analysis of which projections are properly infinite in such…

We consider the ideal structure of a reduced crossed product of a unital $C^*$-algebra equipped with an action of a discrete group. More specifically we find sufficient and necessary conditions for the group action to have the intersection…

We prove that if the unital $C^*$-algebras $\cl A$ and $\cl B$ satisfy Kadison's similarity property and the length $L=L\left(\cl A\tens\limits_{max}\cl B\right)$ of their maximal tensor product is finite, then $\cl A\tens\limits_{max}\cl…

This paper addresses the problem of describing the structure of tensor C*-categories M with conjugates and irreducible tensor unit. No assumption on the existence of a braided symmetry or on amenability is made. Our assumptions are…

We introduce a $C^*$-algebra $\mathscr{A}_V$ of a variety $V$ over the number field $K$ and a $C^*$-algebra $\mathscr{A}_G$ of a reductive group $G$ over the ring of adeles of $K$. Using Pimsner's Theorem we construct an embedding…

Let $B$ be a separable $C^*$-algebra, let $\Gamma$ be a discrete countable group, let $\alpha: \Gamma \to \text{Aut}(B)$ be an action, and let $A$ be an invariant subalgebra. We find certain freeness conditions which guarantee that any…

In this paper we give characterizations of essential left ideals of a C*-algebra $A$ in terms of their properties as operator $A$-modules. Conversely, we seek C*-algebraic characterizations of those ideals $J$ in $A$ such that $A$ is an…

In this paper, we begin by presenting a construction for induced representations of Hilbert modules over pro-$C^*$-algebras for a given continuous $^*$-morphism between pro-$C^*$-algebras. Subsequently, we describe the structure of…

We begin the systematic model theoretic study of $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras using the tools of continuous logic.

Let $(G, P)$ be an abelian, lattice ordered group and let $X$ be a compactly aligned product system over $P$. We show that the C*-envelope of the Nica tensor algebra $\mathcal{N}\mathcal{T}^+_X$ coincides with both Sehnem's covariance…

It is a well-known fact that endomorphisms of $B(H)$ are intimately connected with families of mutually orthogonal isometries, i.e. with representations of the so-called Toeplitz $C^*$-algebras. In this paper we consider a natural…

We prove a number of results having to do with equipping type-I $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras with compact quantum group structures, the two main ones being that such a compact quantum group is necessarily co-amenable, and that if the…

Let $A$, $A'$ be separable $C^*$-algebras, $B$ a stable $\sigma$-unital $C^*$-algebra. Our main result is the construction of the pairing $[[A',A]]\times\operatorname{Ext}^{-1/2}(A,B)\to\operatorname{Ext}^{-1/2}(A',B)$, where $[[A',A]]$…

We define and study large and stably large subalgebras of simple unital C*-algebras. The basic example is the orbit breaking subalgebra of a crossed product by Z, as follows. Let X be an infinite compact metric space, let h be a minimal…
