In this paper we generalize the notion of a $k$-graph into (countable) infinite rank. We then define our $C^*$-algebra in a similar way as in $k$-graph $C^*$-algebras. With this construction we are able to find analogues to the Gauge…

We examine the question of quasidiagonality for C*-algebras of discrete amenable groups from a variety of angles. We give a quantitative version of Rosenberg's theorem via paradoxical decompositions and a characterization 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.…

An algebra is said to be quasi-directly finite when any left-invertible element in its unitization is automatically right-invertible. It is an old observation of Kaplansky that the von Neumann algebra of a discrete group has this property;…

We give an example of a simple separable C*-algebra which is not isomorphic to its opposite algebra. Our example is nonnuclear and stably finite, has real rank zero and stable rank one, and has a unique tracial state. It has trivial K_1,…

We present a different way to study the C*-algebra associated with an injective endomorphism of a group G of infinite cokernel. We follow the work of Boava and Exel to construct a partial crossed product representation of that C*-algebra…

We extend applications of Furstenberg boundary theory to the study of $C^*$-algebras associated to minimal actions $\Gamma\!\curvearrowright\! X$ of discrete groups $\Gamma$ on locally compact spaces $X$. We introduce boundary maps on…

We construct a non-separable C*-algebra that is prime but not primitive.

We construct the full and reduced C*-algebras of an ample groupoid from its complex Steinberg algebra. We also show that our construction gives the same C*-algebras as the standard constructions. In the last section, we consider an…

To a large class of graphs of groups we associate a C*-algebra universal for generators and relations. We show that this C*-algebra is stably isomorphic to the crossed product induced from the action of the fundamental group of the graph of…

We describe proper correspondences from graph C*-algebras to arbitrary C*-algebras by K-theoretic data. If the target C*-algebra is a graph C*-algebra as well, we may lift an isomorphism on a certain invariant to correspondences back and…

In this paper we describe all surjective isometries between open subgroups of the groups of invertible elements in unital $C^{*}$-algebras.

Let \alpha:G --> G be an endomorphism of a discrete amenable group such that [G:\alpha(G)]<infinity. We study the structure of the C^* algebra generated by the left convolution operators acting on the left regular representation space,…

We construct reduced and full semigroup C*-algebras for left cancellative semigroups. Our new construction covers particular cases already considered by A. Nica and also Toeplitz algebras attached to rings of integers in number fields due…

The reduced C*-algebra of a countable linear group G is shown to be simple if and only if G has no nontrivial normal amenable subgroups. Moreover, these conditions are shown to be equivalent to the uniqueness of tracial state on the…

In this paper, we consider graded associative conformal algebras. The class of these objects includes pseudo-algebras over non-cocommutative Hopf algebras of regular functions on some linear algebraic groups. In particular, an associative…

We characterize the topology of the Glimm space of a separable C*-algebra and extend the main result of [6] to non-unital AF C*-algebras.

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…

Given a unital $C(X)$-algebra $A$ discrete group $\Gamma$ and an action $\alpha: \Gamma\to \text{aut}(A)$ which leaves $C(X)$ invariant and such that $C(X)\rtimes_{\alpha,r} \Gamma$ is simple, and a $2$-cocycle $\omega$, we obtain a…

Let $\Omega$ be a class of ${\rm C^*}$-algebras. In this paper, we study a class of not necessarily unital generalized tracial approximation ${\rm C^*}$-algebras, and the class of simple ${\rm C^*}$-algebras which can be generally tracially…
