In this paper, we show that if the reduced Fourier-Stieltjes algebra $B_{\rho}(G)$ of a second countable locally compact group $G$ has either weak* fixed point property or asymptotic center property, then $G$ is compact. As a result, we…

We study the class of pseudocompact C*-algebras, which are the logical limits of finite-dimensional C*-algebras. The pseudocompact C*-algebras are unital, stably finite, real rank zero, stable rank one, and tracial. We show that the…

A classification is given of certain separable nuclear C*-algebras not necessarily of real rank zero, namely the class of simple C*-algebras which are inductive limits of continuous-trace C*-algebras whose building blocks have their…

Topological quivers generalize the notion of directed graphs in which the sets of vertices and edges are locally compact (second countable) Hausdorff spaces. Associated to a topological quiver $Q$ is a $C^*$-correspondence, and in turn, a…

In this article we give sufficient conditions for a group to have simple derived subgroup; the argument is based on generalising properties observed for extremely proximal micro-supported actions on the Cantor space, and generalises…

Dynamical conditions that guarantee stability for discrete transformation group $C^*$-algebras are determined. The results are applied to the case of some discrete subgroups of $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$ acting on the plane with the origin removed…

We give a new very concrete description of the C*-envelope of the tensor algebra associated to multivariable dynamical system. In the surjective case, this C*-envelope is described as a crossed product by an endomorphism, and as a groupoid…

Given an arbitrary countable ordinal $\alpha $, we introduce the notion of type $I_{\alpha }$ C*-algebra and $\alpha $-subhomogeneous C*-algebra. When $\alpha =0$, these recover the notions of Fell C*-algebra and of commutative C*-algebra,…

We consider a new class of potentially exotic group C*-algebras $C^*_{PF_p^*}(G)$ for a locally compact group $G$, and its connection with the class of potentially exotic group C*-algebras $C^*_{L^p}(G)$ introduced by Brown and Guentner.…

A $\Sigma^*$-algebra is a concrete $C^*$-algebra that is sequentially closed in the weak operator topology. We study an appropriate class of $C^*$-modules over $\Sigma^*$-algebras analogous to the class of $W^*$-modules (selfdual…

We prove that for every exact discrete group $\Gamma$, there is an intermediate C*-algebra between the reduced group C*-algebra and the intersection of the group von Neumann algebra and the uniform Roe algebra which is realized as the…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group. Consider the C$^*$-algebra $C_0(G)$ of continuous complex functions on $G$, tending to 0 at infinity. The product in $G$ gives rise to a coproduct $\Delta_G$ on the C$^*$-algebra $C_0(G)$. A locally…

Supramenability of groups is characterised in terms of invariant measures on locally compact spaces. This opens the door to constructing interesting crossed product C*-algebras for non-supramenable groups. In particular, stable Kirchberg…

We show that the group of type-preserving automorphisms of any irreducible semi-regular thick right-angled building is abstractly simple. When the building is locally finite, this gives a large family of compactly generated (abstractly)…

When a locally compact group acts on a C*-correspondence, it also acts on the associated Cuntz-Pimsner algebra in a natural way. Hao and Ng have shown that when the group is amenable the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra of the crossed product…

A groupoid correspondence on an etale, locally compact groupoid induces a C*-correspondence on its groupoid C*-algebra. We show that the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra for this C*-correspondence relative to an ideal associated to an open invariant…
