Let $G$ be a locally compact group. It is not always the case that its reduced C*-algebra $C^*_r(G)$ admits a tracial state. We exhibit closely related necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of such. We gain a complete answer…
Suppose G is a second countable, locally compact, Hausdorff, principal groupoid with a fixed left Haar system. We define a notion of integrability for groupoids, and show G is integrable if and only if the groupoid C*-algebra C*(G) has…
Many previously studied path algebras or self-similar group algebras may be viewed as Steinberg algebras of self-similar groupoids. By way of inverse semigroup algebras, we characterize when the Steinberg algebra of a self-similar groupoid…
We show that any countable subgroup of the multiplicative group $\mathbb{R}_+^{\times}$ of positive real numbers can be realized as the fundamental group $\mathcal{F}(A)$ of a separable simple unital $C^*$-algebra $A$ with unique trace.…
This article extends the main results of the publication arXiv:2001.01312 to the case of a twisted groupoid. More precisely, it gives a decomposition of the C*-algebra of a twisted locally compact groupoid with Haar system in presence of a…
We consider Deaconu--Renault groupoids associated to actions of finite-rank free abelian monoids by local homeomorphisms of locally compact Hausdorff spaces. We study simplicity of the twisted C*-algebra of such a groupoid determined by a…
We study the approximately finite-dimensional (AF) $C^*$-algebras that appear as inductive limits of sequences of finite-dimensional $C^*$-algebras and left-invertible embeddings. We show that there is such a separable AF-algebra $\mathcal…
In this paper we show that certain simple locally recursive subhomogeneous (RSH) C*-algebras are tracially approximately interval algebras after tensoring with the universal UHF algebra. This involves a linear algebraic encoding of the…
For every $p\geq 2$, we give a characterization of positive definite functions on a free group with finitely many generators, which can be extended to the positive linear functionals on the free group $C^*$-algebra associated with the ideal…
Building on recent work of Robertson and Steger, we associate a C*-algebra to a combinatorial object which may be thought of as a higher rank graph. This C*-algebra is shown to be isomorphic to that of the associated path groupoid.…
We initiate the study of computable presentations of real and complex C*-algebras under the program of effective metric structure theory. With the group situation as a model, we develop corresponding notions of recursive presentations and…
We study C*-irreducibility of inclusions of reduced twisted group C*-algebras and of reduced group C*-algebras. We characterize C*-irreducibility in the case of an inclusion arising from a normal subgroup, and exhibit many new examples of…
RO*-algebras are defined and studied. For RO*-algebra T, using properties of partial order, it is established that the set of bounded elements can be endowed with C*-norm. The structure of commutative subalgebras of T is considered and the…
The construction of a C*-algebra of a differential groupoid is presented. It is shown that it defines a covariant functor from the category of differential groupoids in a sense of S. Zakrzewski to the category of C*-algebras.
We introduce the notion of locally finite decomposition rank, a structural property shared by many stably finite nuclear C*-algebras. The concept is particularly relevant for Elliott's program to classify nuclear C*-algebras by K-theory…
We fix a path model for the space of filters of the inverse semigroup $\mathcal{S}_\Lambda$ associated to a left cancellative small category $\Lambda$. Then, we compute its tight groupoid, thus giving a representation of its $C^*$-algebra…
Let $A$ be a unital, simple and Z-stable C$^*$-algebra. We show that the set of positive elements in $A$ (resp. $A \otimes K$) belonging to a fixed non-compact Cuntz class is contractible as a topological subspace of $A$ (resp. $A \otimes…
We unify the Kumjian-Renault Weyl groupoid construction with the Lawson-Lenz version of Exel's tight groupoid construction. We do this by utilising only a weak algebraic fragment of the C*-algebra structure, namely its *-semigroup reduct.…
We develop a framework suitable for obtaining simplicity criteria for reduced $C^*$-algebras of Hausdorff etale groupoids. This is based on the study of certain non-degenerate $C^*$-subalgebras (in the case of groupoids, the $C^*$-algebra…
We study the question whether the representations defined by a dense subset of the unit space of a locally compact \'etale groupoid are enough to determine the reduced norm on the groupoid C$^*$-algebra. We present sufficient conditions for…
