Connectivity is a homotopy invariant property of separable C*-algebras which has three notable consequences: absence of nontrivial projections, quasidiagonality and a more geometric realization of KK-theory for nuclear C*-algebras using…

The homotopy symmetric $C^*$-algebras are those separable $C^*$-algebras for which one can unsuspend in E-theory. We find a new simple condition that characterizes homotopy symmetric nuclear $C^*$-algebras and use it to show that the…

We construct explicit approximating nets for crossed products of C*-algebras by actions of discrete quantum groups. This implies that C*-algebraic approximation properties such as nuclearity, exactness or completely bounded approximation…

In this note we observe that any compact quantum group monoidally equivalent, in a nice way, to a free wreath product of a compact quantum group $G$ by the quantum automorphism group of a finite dimensional C*-algebra with a $\delta$-form…

We establish comparison and divisibility properties for crossed product C*-algebras arising from automorphisms of algebras C (X, D) which lie over minimal homeomorphisms, from actions of compact groups which have finite Rokhlin dimension…

In this note we address a question of Don Hadwin: "Which groups have strongly quasidiagonal C*-algebras?" In recent work we showed that all finitely generated virtually nilpotent groups have strongly quasidiagonal C*-algebras, while…

For a number of properties of C*-algebras, including real rank zero, stable rank one, pure infiniteness, residual hereditary infiniteness, the combination of pure infiniteness and the ideal property, the property of being an AT algebra with…

We show that certain C*-algebras which have been studied among others by Arzumanian, Vershik, Deaconu, and Renault in connection to a measure preserving transformation of a measure space and/or to a covering map of a compact space are…

We prove that a number of classes of separable unital C*-algebras are closed under crossed products by finite group actions with the Rokhlin property, including: (1) AI algebras, AT algebras, and related classes characterized by direct…

In the theory of C*-algebras, interesting noncommutative structures arise as deformations of the tensor product. For instance, the rotation algebra may be seen as a scalar twist deformation of the tensor product of the functions on the…

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a C*-algebra and $\alpha:\mathcal{C} \rightarrow \mathcal{C}$ a unital *-endomorphism. There is a natural way to construct operator algebras which are called semicrossed products, using a convolution induced by the…

We study the C*-algebra crossed-product of the closed unit disk by the action of one of its conformal automorphisms. After classifying the conformal automorphisms up to topological conjugacy, we investigate, for each class, the irreducible…

We consider a family of Hecke C*-algebras which can be realised as crossed products by semigroups of endomorphisms. We show by dilating representations of the semigroup crossed product that the category of representations of the Hecke…

For a large class of C*-algebras $A$, we calculate the $K$-theory of reduced crossed products $A^{\otimes G}\rtimes_rG$ of Bernoulli shifts by groups satisfying the Baum--Connes conjecture. In particular, we give explicit formulas for…

We present a systematic study of the structure of crossed products and fixed point algebras by compact group actions with the Rokhlin property on not necessarily unital C*-algebras. Our main technical result is the existence of an…

We describe the $C^*$-algebra of an $E$-unitary or strongly 0-$E$-unitary inverse semigroup as the partial crossed product of a commutative $C^*$-algebra by the maximal group image of the inverse semigroup. We give a similar result for the…

Let X be an infinite compact metric space with finite covering dimension and let h be a minimal homeomorphism of X. Let A be the associated crossed product C*-algebra. We show that A has tracial rank zero whenever the image of K_0 (A) in…

We introduce {\it covariant structures} $\left\{(\A,\k),(\a,\aa),\(\ha,\haa\)\right\}$ formed of a separable $C^*$-algebra $\A$, a measurable twisted action $(\a,\aa)$ of the second-countable locally compact group $\G$\,, a measurable…

The degree of commutativity of a finite group is the probability that two uniformly and randomly chosen elements commute. This notion extends naturally to finitely generated groups $G$: the degree of commutativity $\text{dc}_S(G)$, with…

We characterise stable finiteness and pure infiniteness of the essential crossed product of a C*-algebra by an action of an inverse semigroup. Under additional assumptions, we prove a stably finite / purely infinite dichotomy. Our main…
