We characterize relatively norm compact sets in the regular $C^*$-algebra of finitely generated Coxeter groups using a geometrically defined positive semigroup acting on the algebra.

We show that separable, nuclear and strongly purely infinite C*-algebras have finite nuclear dimension. In fact, the value is at most three. This exploits a deep structural result of Kirchberg and R{\o}rdam on strongly purely infinite…

For a recollement $(\mathcal{D}B,\mathcal{D}A,\mathcal{D}C)$ of derived categories of algebras, we investigate when the functor $j^*:\mathcal{D}A\rightarrow\mathcal{D}C$ is an eventually homological isomorphism. In this context, we compare…

We study the finite versus infinite nature of C*-algebras arising from etale groupoids. For an ample groupoid G, we relate infiniteness of the reduced C*-algebra of G to notions of paradoxicality of a K-theoretic flavor. We construct a…

It is shown that every linear surjective isometry between two right, full, Hilbert C*-modules is a sum of two maps : a (bi-) module map (which is completely isometric and preserves the inner product) and a map that reverses the (bi-) module…

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…

The main goal of the article is to prove that if $\mathcal A_1$ and $\mathcal A_2$ are Birkhoff-James isomorphic $C^*$-algebras over the fields $\mathbb F_1$ and $\mathbb F_2$, respectively and if $\mathcal A_1$ finite-dimensional, abelian…

This paper deals with a "naive" way of generalization of the Kazhdan's property (T) to C*-algebras. This approach differs from the approach of Connes and Jones, which has already demonstrated its utility. Nevertheless it turned out that our…

B. Magajna and J. Schweizer showed in 1997 and 1999, respectively, that C*-algebras of compact operators can be characterized by the property that every norm-closed (and coinciding with its biorthogonal complement, resp.) submodule of every…

Let S be a finitely generated subsemigroup of Z^2. We derive a general formula for the K-theory of the left regular C*-algebra for S.

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 consider a Hecke algebra naturally associated with the affine group with totally positive multiplicative part over an algebraic number field K and we show that the C*-algebra of the Bost-Connes system for K can be obtained from our Hecke…

A construction of reversible extensions of dynamical systems which applies to arbitrary mappings (not necessarily with open range) is presented. It is based on calculating the maximal ideal space of C*-algebras that extends endomorphisms to…

We introduce the notion of weakly (strongly) infinite real rank for unital $C^{\ast}$-algebras. It is shown that a compact space $X$ is weakly (strongly) infine-dimensional if and only if $C(X)$ has weakly (strongly) infinite real rank.…

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 associate reduced and full C*-algebras to arbitrary rings and study the inner structure of these ring C*-algebras. As a result, we obtain conditions for them to be purely infinite and simple. We also discuss several examples.…

We classify all essential extensions of the form $$0 \rightarrow \W \rightarrow \D \rightarrow A \rightarrow 0$$ where $\W$ is the unique separable simple C*-algebra with a unique tracial state, with finite nuclear dimension and with…

We show that a unital ring is generated by its commutators as an ideal if and only if there exists a natural number $N$ such that every element is a sum of $N$ products of pairs of commutators. We show that one can take $N \leq 2$ for…

We prove constructive versions of various usual results related to the Gelfand duality. Namely, that the constructive Gelfand duality extend to a duality between commutative nonunital C*-algebras and locally compact completely regular…

If $A$ is a $\sigma$-unital $C^*$-algebra and $a$ is a strictly positive element of $A$ then for every compact subset $K$ of the complete regularization $\mathrm{Glimm}(A)$ of $\mathrm{Prim}(A)$ there exists $\alpha > 0$ such that $K\subset…
