We investigate the generalized derivations and show that every generalized derivation on a simple Hilbert $C^*$-module either is closable or has a dense range. We also describe dynamical systems on a full Hilbert $C^*$-module ${\mathcal M}$…
We show that a tracial state on a unital C*-algebra admits a Haar unitary if and only if it is diffuse, if and only if it does not dominate a tracial functional that factors through a finite-dimensional quotient. It follows that a unital…
We study (von Neumann) regular $^*$-subalgebras of $B(H)$, which we call R$^*$-algebras. The class of R$^*$-algebras coincides with that of "E$^*$-algebras that are pre-C$^*$-algebras" in the sense of Z. Sz\H{u}cs and B. Tak\'acs. We give…
Let $G=K\ltimes A$ be the semi-direct product group of a compact group $K$ acting on an abelian locally compact group $A$. We describe the $C^*$-algebra $C^*(G)$ of $G$ in terms of an algebra of operator fields defined over the spectrum of…
Representations of $C^*$-algebras are realized on section spaces of holomorphic homogeneous vector bundles. The corresponding section spaces are investigated by means of a new notion of reproducing kernel, suitable for dealing with…
The C*-envelope of the limit algebra (or limit space) of a contractive regular system of digraph algebras (or digraph spaces) is shown to be an approximately finite C*-algebra and the direct system for the C*-envelope is determined…
Let $X$ be a locally compact non compact Hausdorff topological space. Consider the algebras $C(X)$, $C_b(X)$, $C_0(X)$, and $C_{00}(X)$ of respectively arbitrary, bounded, vanishing at infinity, and compactly supported continuous functions…
We study the C$^*$ algebra generated by the composition operator $C_a$ acting on the Hardy space $H^2$ of the unit disk, given by $C_af=f\circ\varphi_a$, where $$ \varphi_a(z)=\frac{a-z}{1-\bar{a}z}, $$ for $|a|<1$. Also several operators…
A tiling with infinite rotational symmetry, such as the Conway-Radin Pinwheel Tiling, gives rise to a topological dynamical system to which an \'etale equivalence relation is associated. A groupoid C*-algebra for a tiling is produced and a…
We obtained a "decomposition scheme" of C*-algebras. We show that the classes of discrete C*-algebras (as defined by Peligard and Zsido), type II C*-algebras and type III C*-algebras (both defined by Cuntz and Pedersen) form a good…
Let ${\cal A}_{0}(*)$ denote the direct sum of a certain set of UHF algebras and let ${\cal A}(*)\equiv {\bf C}\oplus {\cal A}_{0}(*)$. We introduce a non-cocommutative comultiplication $\Delta_{\phi}$ on ${\cal A}(*)$, and give an example…
In this paper, we prove that unital homomorphisms from continuous functions on a compact metric space to matrices over a C*-algebra with tracial rank at most one are approximately diagonalizable. We also consider some generalizations of…
We show that if A is a separable, nuclear, O_infty-absorbing (or strongly purely infinite) C*-algebra, which is homotopic to zero in an ideal-system preserving way, then A is the inductive limit of C*-algebras of the form M_k(C_0(G,v)),…
Considering the deeper reasons of the appearance of a remarkable counterexample by J.~Kaad and M.~Skeide [17] we consider situations in which two Hilbert C*-modules $M \subset N$ with $M^\bot = \{ 0 \}$ over a fixed C*-algebra $A$ of…
We introduce the notion of Hilbert $C^*$-module independence: Let $\mathscr{A}$ be a unital $C^*$-algebra and let $\mathscr{E}_i\subseteq \mathscr{E},\,\,i=1, 2$, be ternary subspaces of a Hilbert $\mathscr{A}$-module $\mathscr{E}$. Then…
We show that every strongly $\mathbb{Z}$-graded C*-algebra (equivalently, every C*-algebra carrying a strongly continuous $\mathbb{T}$-action with full spectral subspaces) is a Cuntz--Pimsner algebra, and describe subalgebras and subspaces…
We prove that an action $\rho:A\to M(C_0(\mathbb{G})\otimes A)$ of a locally compact quantum group on a $C^*$-algebra has a universal equivariant compactification, and prove a number of other category-theoretic results on…
We consider operators on $L^2$ spaces that expand the support of vectors in a manner controlled by some constraint function. The primary objects of study are $\mathrm C^*$-algebras that arise from suitable families of constraints, which we…
Motivated by the search for new examples of "noncommutative manifolds", we study the noncommutative geometry of the group C*-algebras of various discrete groups. The examples we consier are the infinite dihedral group ${\bf Z}…
We prove a new uniqueness theorem for the tight C*-algebras of an inverse semigroup by generalizing the uniqueness theorem given for \'etale groupoid C*-algebras by Brown, Nagy, Reznikoff, Sims, and Williams. We use this to show that in the…
