We show that there exists a completely bounded (c.b. in short) homomorphism $u$ from a $C^*$-algebra $C$ with the lifting property (in short LP) into a QWEP von Neumann algebra $N$ that is not strongly similar to a $*$-homomorphism, i.e.…

Motivated by the search for new examples of ``noncommutative manifolds'', we study the noncommutative geometry (in the sense of Connes) of the group C*-algebras of various discrete groups. The examples we consider are the infinite dihedral…

A universal coefficient theorem in the setting of Kirchberg's ideal-related KK-theory was obtained in the fundamental case of a C*-algebra with one specified ideal by Bonkat and proved there to split, unnaturally, under certain conditions.…

We study homotopy epimorphisms and covers formulated in terms of derived Tate's acyclicity for commutative C*-algebras and their non-Archimedean counterparts. We prove that a homotopy epimorphism between commutative C*-algebras precisely…

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…

Let $M$ and $N$ be topological spaces, let $G$ be a group, and let $\tau \colon\thinspace G \times M \to M$ be a proper free action of $G$. In this paper, we define a Borsuk-Ulam-type property for homotopy classes of maps from $M$ to $N$…

Let M and N be topological spaces such that M admits a free involution $\\tau$. A homotopy class $\beta$ $\in$ [M, N ] is said to have the Borsuk-Ulam property with respect to $\\tau$ if for every representative map f : M $\rightarrow$ N of…

For A a separable unital C*-algebra and M a separable McDuff II_1-factor, we show that the space Hom_w(A,M) of weak approximate unitary equivalence classes of unital *-homomorphisms A \rightarrow M may be considered as a closed, bounded,…

Idempotent states on a unimodular coamenable locally compact quantum group A are shown to be in one-to-one correspondence with right invariant expected C*-subalgebras of A. Haar idempotents, that is, idempotent states arising as Haar states…

We consider Hilsum's notion of bordism as an equivalence relation on unbounded $KK$-cycles and study the equivalence classes. Upon fixing two $C^*$-algebras, and a $*$-subalgebra dense in the first $C^*$-algebra, a…

We use techniques from both real and complex algebraic geometry to study K-theoretic and related invariants of the algebra C(X) of continuous complex-valued functions on a compact Hausdorff topological space X. For example, we prove a…

For a $C^*$-algebra $A$ of compact operators and a compact manifold $M,$ we prove that the Hodge theory holds for $A$-elliptic complexes of pseudodifferential operators acting on smooth sections of finitely generated projective $A$-Hilbert…

We obtain a kind of structure theorem for the automorphism group ${\rm Aut}{\cal A}$ of a unital C$^{*}$-algebra ${\cal A}$. According to it, ${\rm Aut}{\cal A}$ can be regarded as a subgroup of the semi-direct product of direct product…

The spectral functor of an ergodic action of a compact quantum group G on a unital C*-algebra is quasitensor, in the sense that the tensor product of two spectral subspaces is isometrically contained in the spectral subspace of the tensor…

For unital $C^*$-algebras $A$ and $B$, we completely characterize the isometric ($*$-) automorphisms of their Banach space projective tensor product $A\otimes^\gamma B$. This leads to the characterization of inner and outer isometric…

It is established that every (not necessarily linear) 2-local $^*$-homomorphism from a von Neumann algebra into a C$^*$-algebra is linear and a $^*$-homomorphism. In the setting of (not necessarily linear) 2-local $^*$-homomorphism from a…

We define and examine sequentially split $*$-homomorphisms between $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras and $\mathrm{C}^*$-dynamical systems. For a $*$-homomorphism, the property of being sequentially split can be regarded as an approximate weakening of…

It is proved that the K_0-group of a cluster C*-algebra is isomorphic to the corresponding cluster algebra. As a corollary, one gets a shorter proof of the positivity conjecture for cluster algebras. As an example, we consider a cluster…

Coactions of Hopf C*-bimodules simultaneously generalize coactions of Hopf C*-algebras and actions of groupoids. Following an approach of Baaj and Skandalis, we construct reduced crossed products and establish a duality for fine coactions.…

We prove that if a connected and simply connected Lie group $G$ admits connected closed normal subgroups $G_1\subseteq G_2\subseteq \cdots \subseteq G_m=G$ with $\dim G_j=j$ for $j=1,\dots,m$, then its group $C^*$-algebra has closed…
