We study the theory of a Hilbert space H as a module for a unital C*-algebra A from the point of view of continuous logic. We give an explicit axiomatization for this theory and describe the structure of all the representations which are…

We give examples of minimal diffeomorphisms of compact connected manifolds which are not topologically orbit equivalent, but whose transformation group C*-algebras are isomorphic. The examples show that the following properties of a minimal…

An example is given of a simple, unital C*-algebra which contains an infinite and a non-zero finite projection. This C*-algebra is also an example of an infinite simple C*-algebra which is not purely infinite. A corner of this C*-algebra is…

A pro-C^*-algebra is a (projective) limit of C^*-algebras in the category of topological *-algebras. From the perspective of non-commutative geometry, pro-C^*-algebras can be seen as non-commutative k-spaces. An element of a pro-C^*-algebra…

We study nonunital $C^*$-algebras such that for any element there exists a local unit and prove that in such algebras there are no frames. This fact was previously known only for commutative algebras. Among other results, we establish some…

We show that the unit ball of a full Hilbert $C^*$-module is sequentially compact in a certain weak topology if and only if the underlying $C^*$-algebra is finite dimensional. This provides an answer to the question posed in J.…

In this paper, a classification is given of real rank zero $C^*$-algebras that can be expressed as inductive limits of a sequence of a subclass of Elliott-Thomsen algebras $\mathcal{C}$.

Let $X$ be an infinite compact metrizable space, and let $\sigma: X\to X$ be a minimal homeomorphism. Suppose that $(X, \sigma)$ has zero mean topological dimension. The associated C*-algebra $A=\mathrm{C}(X)\rtimes_\sigma\mathbb Z$ is…

The paper deals with $C^*$-algebras generated by a net of Hilbert spaces over a partially ordered set. The family of those algebras constitutes a net of $C^*$-algebras over the same set. It is shown that every such an algebra is graded by…

For elements $a, b$ of a C*-algebra we denote $a=ab$ by $a\ll b$. We show that all $\omega_1$-unital C*-algebras have $\ll$-increasing approximate units, extending a classical result for $\sigma$-unital C*-algebras. We also construct (in…

We introduce and characterize a particularly tractable class of unital type 1 C*-algebras with bounded dimension of irreducible representations. Algebras in this class are called recursive subhomogeneous algebras, and they have an inductive…

We survey the results on linear local and 2-local homomorphisms and zero products preserving operators between C$^*$-algebras, and we incorporate some new precise observations and results to prove that every bounded linear 2-local…

The local multiplier C*-algebra M_{loc}(A) of any C*-algebra A can *-isomorphicly embedded into the injective envelope I(A) of A in such a way that the canonical embeddings of A into both these C*-algebras are identified. If A is…

We show that a $C^*$-algebra $\mathfrak{A}$ which is stably isomorphic to a unital graph $C^*$-algebra, is isomorphic to a graph $C^*$-algebra if and only if it admits an approximate unit of projections. As a consequence, a hereditary…

We consider the question of when the multiplier algebra $M(\mathcal{A})$ of a $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal{A}$ is a $ W^*$-algebra, and show that it holds for a stable $C^*$-algebra exactly when it is a $C^*$-algebra of compact operators. This…

We show that finitely generated subhomogeneous C*-algebras have finite decomposition rank. As a consequence, any separable ASH C*-algebra can be written as an inductive limit of subhomogeneous C*-algebras each of which has finite…

In this paper we extend the constructions of Boava and Exel to present the C*-algebra associated with an injective endomorphism of a group with finite cokernel as a partial group algebra and consequently as a partial crossed product. With…
