This paper is a further study of finite Rokhlin dimension for actions of finite groups and the integers on C*-algebras, introduced by the first author, Winter, and Zacharias. We extend the definition of finite Rokhlin dimension to the…

The cone of lower semicontinuous traces is studied with a view to its use as an invariant. Its properties include compactness, Hausdorffness, and continuity with respect to inductive limits. A suitable notion of dual cone is given. The cone…

We explore various limit constructions for C*-algebras, such as composition series and inverse limits, in relation to the notions of real rank, stable rank, and extremal richness. We also consider extensions and pullbacks. We identify some…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a separable nuclear C*-algebra, and $\mathcal{B}$ be a nonunital separable simple $\mathcal{Z}$-stable C*-algebra. Continuing the work from Gabe-Lin-Ng, we classify all essential extensions, with large complement, of…

It is shown that a separable C*-algebra is inner quasidiagonal if and only if it has a separating family of quasidiagonal irreducible representations. As a consequence, a separable C*-algebra is a strong NF algebra if and only if it is…

We show that semiprojectivity of a C*-algebra is preserved when passing to C*-subalgebras of finite codimension. In particular, any pullback of two semiprojective C*-algebras over a finite-dimensional C*-algebra is again semiprojective.

We define the class of weakly approximately divisible unital C*-algebras and show that this class is closed under direct sums, direct limits, any tensor product with any C*-algebra, and quotients. A nuclear C*-algebra is weakly…

Kazhdan's notion of property T has recently been imported to the C$^*$-world by Bekka. Our objective is to extend a well known fact to this realm; we show that a nuclear C$^*$-algebra with property T is finite dimensional (for all intents…

Following Elliott's earlier work, we show that the Elliott invariant of any finite separable simple $C^*$-algebra with finite nuclear dimension can always be described as a scaled simple ordered group pairing together with a countable…

We further examine the concept of uniform property Gamma for C*-algebras introduced in our joint work with Winter. In addition to obtaining characterisations in the spirit of Dixmier's work on central sequence in II$_1$ factors, we…

In this paper, we introduce a class of non-unital tracial approximation ${\rm C^*}$-algebras. Consider the class of ${\rm C^*}$-algebras which are tracially $\mathcal{Z}$-absorbing (in the sense of Amint, Golestani, Jamali, Phillips's…

Complexity rank for $C^*$-algebras was introduced by the second author and Yu for applications towards the UCT: very roughly, this rank is at most $n$ if you can repeatedly cut the $C^*$-algebra in half at most $n$ times, and end up with…

We provide a self-contained proof of the Artin-Wedderburn theorem in the case of finite-dimensional Von Neumann algebras (or equivalently unital C* algebras) that is fully constructive and uses only basic notions of linear algebra.

We prove that the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra associated to any surjective aperiodic one-sided subshift with finitely many left special elements has finite nuclear dimension, which is especially the case for every surjective aperiodic subshift…

We study a class of stably projectionless simple C*-algebras which may be viewed as having generalized tracial rank one in analogy with the unital case. Some structural question concerning these simple C*-algebras are studied. The paper…

We consider the functor C that to a unital C*-algebra A assigns the partial order set C(A) of its commutative C*-subalgebras ordered by inclusion. We investigate how some C*-algebraic properties translate under the action of C to…

We consider the boundary-path groupoids of topological higher-rank graphs. We show that the all such groupoids are topologically amenable. We deduce that the C*-algebras of topological higher-rank graphs are nuclear and prove versions of…

We establish four results concerning connections between actions on separable C*-algebras with Rokhlin-type properties and absorption of the Jiang-Su algebra Z. For actions of residually finite groups or of the reals which have finite…

We show that if A is a separable, nuclear, O_infty-absorbing (or strongly purely infinite) C*-algebra, which is homotopic to zero in an ideal-system preserving way, then A is the inductive limit of C*-algebras of the form M_k(C_0(G,v)),…
