Cuntz and Li have defined a C*-algebra associated to any integral domain, using generators and relations, and proved that it is simple and purely infinite and that it is stably isomorphic to a crossed product of a commutative C*-algebra. We…
A systematic theory of product and diagonal states is developed for tensor products of $\mathbb Z_2$-graded $*$-algebras, as well as $\mathbb Z_2$-graded $C^*$-algebras. As a preliminary step to achieve this goal, we provide the…
We use the theory of regular objects in tensor categories to clarify the passage between braided multiplicative unitaries and multiplicative unitaries with projection. The braided multiplicative unitary and its semidirect product…
The recently developed theory of partial actions of discrete groups on $C^*$-algebras is extended. A related concept of actions of inverse semigroups on $C^*$-algebras is defined, including covariant representations and crossed products.…
A C*-metric algebra consists of a unital C*-algebra and a Leibniz Lip-norm on the C*-algebra. We show that if the Lip-norms concerned are lower semicontinuous, then any unital *-homomorphism from a C*-metric algebra to another one is…
We show that for a C*-algebra A and a discrete group G with an action of G on A, the reduced crossed product C*-algebra possesses a natural generalization of the convolution product, which we suggest should be named the Hadamard product. We…
We provide a complete description of the order isomorphisms between the self-adjoint parts of $C^*$-algebras. Furthermore, we characterize such isomorphisms between general operator intervals in $AW^*$-algebras. For the description, we use…
We give a new definition of the semigroup C*-algebra of a left cancellative semigroup, which resolves problems of the construction by X. Li. Namely, the new construction is functorial, and the independence of ideals in the semigroup does…
We give classifications of group gradings, up to equivalence and up to isomorphism, on the tensor product of a Cayley algebra $\mathcal{C}$ and a Hurwitz algebra over a field of characteristic different from 2. We also prove that the…
Connectivity is a homotopy invariant property of a separable C*-algebra A which has three important consequences: absence of nontrivial projections, quasidiagonality and realization of the Kasparov group KK(A,B) as homotopy classes of…
We introduce the category of C*-discrete inclusions of C*-algebras $A\subset B$ with a faithful conditional expectation $E:B\twoheadrightarrow A$. This class includes many examples such as finite Watatani index inclusions, and also abundant…
We give an example of an exact, stably finite, simple. separable C*-algebra D which is not isomorphic to its opposite algebra. Moreover, D has the following additional properties. It is stably finite, approximately divisible, has real rank…
The paper presents a construction of the crossed product of a C*-algebra by a commutative semigroup of bounded positive linear maps generated by partial isometries. In particular, it generalizes Antonevich, Bakhtin, Lebedev's crossed…
C*-endomorphisms arising from superselection structures with non-trivial centre define a 'rank' and a 'first Chern class'. Crossed products by such endomorphisms involve the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra of a vector bundle having the…
Let $E$ and $F$ be two Hilbert $C^*$-modules over $C^*$-algebras $A$ and $B$, respectively. Let $T$ be a surjective linear isometry from $E$ onto $F$ and $\varphi$ a map from $A$ into $B$. We will prove in this paper that if the…
We compute the K-theory of the C*-algebra of symmetric words in two universal unitaries. This algebra is the fixed point C*-algebra for the order-two automorphism of the full C*-algebra of the free group on two generators which switches the…
If $\alpha$ is an amenable action of a discrete group $G$ on a unital C*-algebra $A$, then the crossed-product C*-algebra $A\rtimes_\alpha G$ has the weak expectation property if and only if $A$ has this property.
In this note, we will discuss what kind of operators between C*-algebras preserves Jordan triple products {a,b,c}= (ab*c + cb*a)/2. These include especially isometries and disjointness preserving operators.
We analyze the Namioka-Phelps minimal and maximal tensor products of compact convex sets arising as state spaces of C$^*$-algebras, and, relatedly, study entanglement in (infinite dimensional) C$^*$-algebras. The minimal Namioka-Phelps…
We construct an example of a simple nuclear separable unital stably finite Z-stable C*-algebra along with an action of the circle such that the crossed product is simple but not Z-stable.
