We define and systematically study nonassociative C*-algebras as C*-algebras internal to a topological tensor category. We also offer a concrete approach to these C*-algebras, as G-invariant, norm closed *-subalgebras of bounded operators…
In this mostly expository note, we revisit the K\"unneth theorem in $K$-theory of nonnuclear C*-algebras. We show that, using examples considered by Skandalis, there are algebras satisfying the K\"unneth theorem for the minimal tensor…
We prove that C*-algebras which, as Banach spaces, are Grothendieck cannot be decomposed into a tensor product of two infinite-dimensional C*-algebras. By a result of Pfitzner, this class contains all von Neumann algebras and their…
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…
We study the K-theory of the Cuntz-Nica-Pimsner C*-algebra of a rank-two product system that is an extension determined by an invariant ideal of the coefficient algebra. We use a construction of Deaconu and Fletcher that describes the…
Let (G,P) be a quasi-lattice ordered group and let X be a compactly aligned product system over P of Hilbert bimodules. Under mild hypotheses we associate to X a C*-algebra which we call the Cuntz-Nica-Pimsner algebra of X. Our construction…
We say that a contractive Hilbert space operator is universal if there is a natural surjection from its generated C*-algebra to the C*-algebra generated by any other contraction. A universal contraction may be irreducible or a direct sum of…
We study the K-theory of ring C*-algebras associated to rings of integers in global function fields with only one single infinite place. First, we compute the torsion-free part of the K-groups of these ring C*-algebras. Secondly, we show…
We pose a conjecture on the K-theory of the self-similar $k$-graph C*-algebra of a standard product of odometers. We generalize the C*-algebra $\mathcal{Q}_S$ to any subset of $\mathbb{N}^\times \setminus \{1\}$ and then realize it as the…
In this article we survey some of the recent goings-on in the classification programme of C$^*$-algebras, following the interesting link found between the Cuntz semigroup and the classical Elliott invariant and the fact that the Elliott…
For a number of properties of C*-algebras, including real rank zero, stable rank one, pure infiniteness, residual hereditary infiniteness, the combination of pure infiniteness and the ideal property, the property of being an AT algebra with…
I combine recent results in the structure theory of nuclear C*-algebras and in topological dynamics to classify certain types of crossed products in terms of their Elliott invariants. In particular, transformation group C*-algebras…
We continue the study of the effective content of $K$-theory for C*-algebras, with a focus on AF algebras. We show that from a c.e. presentation of an AF algebra it is possible to compute a representation of the algebra as an inductive…
It is well known that the functor of taking the minimal tensor product with a fixed $C^*$-algebra preserves inductive limits if and only if it preserves extensions. In other words, tensor continuity is equivalent to tensor exactness. We…
We identify all closed Lie ideals of $A \otimes^{\alpha} B$ and $B(H) \otimes^{\alpha} B(H)$, where $\otimes^{\alpha}$ is either the Haagerup tensor product, the Banach space projective tensor product or the operator space projective tensor…
Using the Baum-Connes conjecture with coefficients, we develop a K-theory formula for reduced C*-algebras of strongly $0$-$E$-unitary inverse semigroups, or equivalently, for certain reduced partial crossed products. In the case of…
In this paper, a new invariant was built towards the classification of separable C*-algebras of real rank zero, which we call latticed total K-theory. A classification theorem is given in terms of such an invariant for a large class of…
We present the first range result for the total K-theory of C*-algebras. This invariant has been used successfully to classify certain separable, nuclear C*-algebras of real rank zero. Our results complete the classification of the…
We define continuous C*-algebras over a topological space X and establish some basic results. If X is a locally compact Hausdorff space, continuous C*-algebras over X are equivalent to ordinary continuous C_0(X)-algebras. The main purpose…
It was shown by Rordam and the second named author that a countable group G admits an action on a compact space such that the crossed product is a Kirchberg algebra if, and only if, G is exact and non-amenable. This construction allows a…
