We introduce the growth rank of a C*-algebra, a (N \cup {\infty})-valued invariant which measures how far an algebra is from absorbing the Jiang-Su algebra Z tensorially. We prove that its range is exhausted by simple nuclear C*-algebras,…

The residual finite-dimensionality of a $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebra is known to be encoded in a topological property of its space of representations, stating that finite-dimensional representations should be dense therein. We extend this…

A C*-algebra is n-homogeneous (where n is finite) if every its nonzero irreducible representation acts on an n-dimensional Hilbert space. An elementary proof of Fell's characterization of n-homogeneous C*-algebras (by means of their…

We show that the homoclinic C*-algebras of mixing Smale spaces are classifiable by the Elliott invariant. To obtain this result, we prove that the stable, unstable, and homoclinic C*-algebras associated to such Smale spaces have finite…

We introduce and study some new uniform structures for Hilbert $C^*$-modules over an algebra $A$. In particular, we prove that in some cases they have the same totally bounded sets. To define one of them, we introduce a new class of…

Let $A$ be a separable, unital, simple C*-algebra with stable rank one. We show that every strictly positive, lower semicontinuous, affine function on the simplex of normalized quasitraces of $A$ is realized as the rank of an operator in…

We establish logical equivalence between statements involving * the Cuntz C*-algebra $\mathcal O_\infty$ with its canonical diagonal; * graph C*-algebras with their canonical diagonals; * Leavitt path algebras over general fields with their…

We prove that faithful traces on separable and nuclear C*-algebras in the UCT class are quasidiagonal. This has a number of consequences. Firstly, by results of many hands, the classification of unital, separable, simple and nuclear…

We investigate how the fixed point algebra of a C*-dynamical system can differ from the underlying C*-algebra. For any exact group $\Gamma$ and any infinite group $\Lambda$, we construct an outer action of $\Lambda$ on the Cuntz algebra…

Given an action by a finite quantum group $\mathbb{G}$ on a von Neumann algebra $M$, we prove that a number of familiar $W^*$ properties are equivalent for $M$ and the fixed-point algebra $M^{\mathbb{G}}$ (i.e. hold or not simultaneously…

We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for the stability of the finite section method for operators belonging to a certain $C^*$-algebra of operators acting on the Hilbert space $l^2_H(\mathbb{Z})$ of $H$-valued sequences where…

We show that certain C*-algebras which have been studied among others by Arzumanian, Vershik, Deaconu, and Renault in connection to a measure preserving transformation of a measure space and/or to a covering map of a compact space are…

We provide inverse semigroup and groupoid models for the Toeplitz and Cuntz-Krieger algebras of finitely aligned higher-rank graphs. Using these models, we prove a uniqueness theorem for the Cuntz-Krieger algebra.

We prove that if a conditional expectation from a simple $C^*$-algebra onto its $C^*$-subalgebra satisfies the Pimsner-Popa inequality, there exists a quasi-basis. As an application, we establish the Galois correspondence for outer actions…

We introduce a new class of C^*-algebras, which is a generalization of both graph algebras and homeomorphism C^*-algebras. This class is very large and also very tractable. We prove the so-called gauge-invariant uniqueness theorem and the…

Using associated trees, we construct a spectral triple for the C$^*$-algebra of continuous functions on the ring of integers $R$ of a nonarchimedean local field $F$ of characteristic zero, and investigate its properties. Remarkably, the…

We show that, when $A$ is a separable C*-algebra, every countably generated Hilbert $A$-module is projective (with bounded module maps as morphisms). We also study the approximate extensions of bounded module maps. In the case that $A$ is a…

This study aims at combining the concepts of $g$-frame and $K$-frame for a Hilbert $C^*$-module $U$, for an operator $K \in End^*_A(U)$, where $End^*_A(U)$ contains all adjointable $A$-linear maps on $U$. As a result, continuous…

We extend in this paper several results of E. Kirchberg, S. Wassermann and the author dealing with continuous fields of C*--algebras to the semi-continuous case. We provide a new characterisation of separable lower semi-continuity…

A new category of topological spaces with additional structures, called m-towers, is introduced. It is shown that there is a covariant functor which establishes a one-to-one correspondences between unital (resp. arbitrary) subhomogeneous…
