Let E be a row-finite directed graph. We prove that there exists a C*-algebra C*_{min}(E) with the following co-universal property: given any C*-algebra B generated by a Toeplitz-Cuntz-Krieger E-family in which all the vertex projections…

A covering of k-graphs (in the sense of Pask-Quigg-Raeburn) induces an embedding of universal C*-algebras. We show how to build a (k+1)-graph whose universal algebra encodes this embedding. More generally we show how to realise a direct…

We define an ultragraph, which is a generalization of a directed graph, and describe how to associate a C*-algebra to it. We show that the class of ultragraph algebras contains the C*-algebras of graphs as well as the Exel-Laca algebras. We…

In this paper we describe a new method of defining C*-algebras from oriented combinatorial data, thereby generalizing the constructions of algebras from directed graphs, higher-rank graphs, and ordered groups. We show that only the most…

A general method of investigation of the uniqueness property for $C^*$-algebra equipped with a circle gauge action is discussed. It unifies isomorphism theorems for various crossed products and Cuntz-Krieger uniqueness theorem for…

Given an arbitrary countable directed graph $G$ we prove the C*-envelope of the tensor algebra $T_+(G)$ coincides with the universal Cuntz-Krieger algebra associated with $G$. Our approach is concrete in nature and does not rely on Hilbert…

We prove directly that if E is a directed graph in which every cycle has an entrance, then there exists a C*-algebra which is co-universal for Toeplitz-Cuntz-Krieger E-families. In particular, our proof does not invoke ideal-structure…

Cuntz algebras $\mathcal{O}_n$, $n>1$, are celebrated examples of a separable infinite simple C*-algebra with a number of fascinating properties. Their K-theory allows an embedding of $\mathcal O_m$ in $\mathcal O_n$ whenever $n-1$ divides…

We prove a spectral theorem for bimodules in the context of graph C*-algebras. A bimodule over a suitable abelian algebra is determined by its spectrum (i.e., its groupoid partial order) iff it is generated by the Cuntz-Krieger partial…

We study the problem of extending a state on an abelian $C^*$- subalgebra to a tracial state on the ambient $C^*$-algebra. We propose an approach that is well-suited to the case of regular inclusions, in which there is a large supply of…

We give a definition of hypergraph C*-algebras. These generalize the well-known graph C*-algebras as well as ultragraph C*-algebras. In contrast to those objects, hypergraph C*-algebras are not always nuclear. We provide a number of…
