Various subsets of the tracial state space of a unital C*-algebra are studied. The largest of these subsets has a natural interpretation as the space of invariant means. II_1-factor representations of a class of C*-algebras considered by…
The Cuntz semigroup of a C*-algebra is an important invariant in the structure and classification theory of C*-algebras. It captures more information than K-theory but is often more delicate to handle. We systematically study the lattice…
In our earlier work, we constructed a specific non-compact quantum group whose quantum group structures have been constructed on a certain twisted group C*-algebra. In a sense, it may be considered as a ``quantum Heisenberg group…
In this article, we construct a 2-shaded rigid ${\rm C}^*$ multitensor category with canonical unitary dual functor directly from a standard $\lambda$-lattice. We use the notions of traceless Markov towers and lattices to define the notion…
We produce a complete descrption of the lattice of gauge-invariant ideals in $C^*(\Lambda)$ for a finitely aligned $k$-graph $\Lambda$. We provide a condition on $\Lambda$ under which every ideal is gauge-invariant. We give conditions on…
Imprimitivity theorems provide a fundamental tool for studying the representation theory and structure of crossed-product C*-algebras. In this work, we show that the Imprimitivity Theorem for induced algebras, Green's Imprimitivity Theorem…
Let $G$ be a discrete group. Given unital $G$-$C^*$-algebras $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$, we give an abstract condition under which every $G$-subalgebra $\mathcal{C}$ of the form $\mathcal{A}\subset \mathcal{C}\subset…
We give a complete description of the bounded (i.e. norm continuous) unitary representations of the Fr\'echet-Lie algebra of all smooth sections, as well as of the LF-Lie algebra of compactly supported smooth sections, of a smooth Lie…
We study unital operator spaces endowed with a partially defined product. We give a matrix-norm characterization of such products that allows for a representation theorem where the partial product is realized as composition of operators on…
This is a survey paper about representation theory and noncommutative geometry of reductive p-adic groups G. The main focus points are: 1. The structure of the Hecke algebra H(G), the Harish-Chandra-Schwartz algebra S(G) and the reduced…
C*-algebras are rings, sometimes nonunital, obeying certain axioms that ensure a very well-behaved representation theory upon Hilbert space. Moreover, there are some well-known features of the representation theory leading to subtle…
We aim to characterize the category of injective *-homomorphisms between commutative C*-subalgebras of a given C*-algebra A. We reduce this problem to finding a weakly terminal commutative subalgebra of A, and solve the latter for various…
A notion of super operator system is defined which generalizes the usual notion of operator systems to include certain unital involutive operator spaces which cannot be represented completely isometric as a concrete operator system on some…
We introduce a $C^*$-algebra $\mathscr{A}_V$ of a variety $V$ over the number field $K$ and a $C^*$-algebra $\mathscr{A}_G$ of a reductive group $G$ over the ring of adeles of $K$. Using Pimsner's Theorem we construct an embedding…
Let $X$ be a product system over a quasi-lattice ordered groupoid $(G,P)$. Under mild hypotheses, we associate to $X$ a $C^*$-algebra which is couniversal for injective Nica covariant Toeplitz representations of $X$ which preserve the gauge…
Let $\Lambda$ be a finite dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field. We exhibit slices of the representation theory of $\Lambda$ that are always classifiable in stringent geometric terms. Namely, we prove that, for any…
Let $n\geq 2$ and $G_n=\mathbb{Z}^n\rtimes SL_n(\mathbb{Z})$. We classify all $G_n$-invariant von Neumann subalgebras in $L(G_n)$. For $n=2$, this gives an alternative proof of the previous result of Jiang-Liu. For $n\geq 3$, this gives the…
We extend our previous results on generalized Dixmier-Douady theory to graded $C^*$-algebras, as means for explicit computations of the invariants arising for bundles of ungraded $C^*$-algebras. For a strongly self-absorbing $C^*$-algebra…
For a locally compact group $G$, we show that it is possible to present the class of continuous unitary representations of $G$ as an elementary class of metric structures, in the sense of continuous logic. More precisely, we show how…
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…
