A long-standing open question in the theory of group actions on C*-algebras is the stable rank of the crossed product. Specifically, N. C. Phillips asked that if a finite group $G$ acts on a simple unital C*-algebra $A$ with stable rank…
We study the action of a real reductive group $G$ on a Kahler manifold $Z$ which is the restriction of a holomorphic action of a complex reductive Lie group $U^\mathbb{C}.$ We assume that the action of $U$, a maximal compact connected…
We investigate crossed products of Cuntz algebras by quasi-free actions of abelian groups. We prove that our algebras are AF-embeddable when actions satisfy a certain condition. We also give a necessary and sufficient condition that our…
Let T be a free ergodic measure-preserving action of an abelian group G on (X,mu). The crossed product algebra R_T has two distinguished masas, the image C_T of L^infty(X,mu) and the algebra S_T generated by the image of G. We conjecture…
Let $A$ be a separable, unital, simple, $\mathcal{Z}$-stable, nuclear $C^*$-algebra, and let $\alpha\colon G\to \mathrm{Aut}(A)$ be an action of a discrete, countable, amenable group. Suppose that the orbits of the action of $G$ on $T(A)$…
We present a generalized version of classical geometric invariant theory \`a la Mumford where we consider an affine algebraic group $G$ acting on a specific affine algebraic variety $X$. We define the notions of linearly reductive and of…
Let $U$ be a unipotent group which is graded in the sense that it has an extension $H$ by the multiplicative group of the complex numbers such that all the weights of the adjoint action on the Lie algebra of $U$ are strictly positive. We…
We develop the notion of Rokhlin dimension for partial actions of finite groups, extending the well-established theory for global systems. The partial setting exhibits phenomena that cannot be expected for global actions, usually stemming…
We give complete descriptions of the tracial states on both the universal and reduced crossed products of a C*-dynamical system consisting of a unital C*-algebra and a discrete group. In particular, we also answer the question of when the…
Let ${\cal A}_1$ be the class of all unital separable simple $C^*$-algebras $A$ such that $A\otimes U$ has tracial rank at most one for all UHF-algebras of infinite type. It has been shown that amenable ${\cal Z}$-stable $C^*$-algebras in…
We introduce and study the continuous Rokhlin property for actions of compact groups on C*-algebras. An important technical result is a characterization of the continuous Rokhlin property in terms of asymptotic retracts. As a consequence,…
For every countable abelian group $G$ we find the set of all its subgroups $H$ ($H\leq G$) such that a typical measure-preserving $H$-action on a standard atomless probability space $(X,\mathcal{F}, \mu)$ can be extended to a free…
Let $U$ be a graded unipotent group over the complex numbers, in the sense that it has an extension $\hat{U}$ by the multiplicative group such that the action of the multiplicative group by conjugation on the Lie algebra of $U$ has all its…
Let $\Omega$ be a class of unital ${\rm C^*}$-algebras which have the second type tracial nuclear dimensional at moat $n$ (or have tracial nuclear dimensional at most $n$). Let $A$ be an infinite dimensional unital simple ${\rm…
Starting with a spectral triple on a unital $C^{*}$-algebra $A$ with an action of a discrete group $G$, if the action is uniformly bounded (in a Lipschitz sense) a spectral triple on the reduced crossed product $C^{*}$-algebra $A\rtimes_{r}…
Group actions on a Smale space and the actions induced on the C*-algebras associated to such a dynamical system are studied. We show that an effective action of a discrete group on a mixing Smale space produces a strongly outer action on…
Let G be a reductive connected linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic and let g be its Lie algebra. First we extend a well-known result about the Picard group of a semisimple group to reductive…
To any connected and simply connected nilpotent Lie group N, one can associate its group of affine transformations Aff(N). In this paper, we study simply transitive actions of a given nilpotent Lie group G on another nilpotent Lie group N,…
Given a partial action \alpha of a group G on an associative algebra A we consider the crossed product A x_\alpha G. Using the algebras of multipliers of ideals of A we prove that A x_\alpha G is associative, provided that all ideals of A…
We study compatible actions (introduced by Brown and Loday in their work on the non-abelian tensor product of groups) in the category of Lie algebras over a fixed ring. We describe the Peiffer product via a new diagrammatic approach, which…
