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…

The Haagerup property for locally compact groups is generalised to the context of locally compact quantum groups, with several equivalent characterisations in terms of the unitary representations and positive-definite functions established.…

The equivariant bootstrap class in the Kasparov category of actions of a finite group G consists of those actions that are equivalent to one on a Type I C*-algebra. Using a result by Arano and Kubota, we show that this bootstrap class is…

The study of actions of countable groups by automorphisms of compact abelian groups has recently undergone intensive development, revealing deep connections with operator algebras and other areas. The discrete Heisenberg group is the…

If $A$ is a $\sigma$-unital $C^*$-algebra and $a$ is a strictly positive element of $A$ then for every compact subset $K$ of the complete regularization $\mathrm{Glimm}(A)$ of $\mathrm{Prim}(A)$ there exists $\alpha > 0$ such that $K\subset…

In the present paper we prove a duality theory for compact groups in the case when the C*-algebra A, the fixed point algebra of the corresponding Hilbert C*-system (F,G), has a nontrivial center Z and the relative commutant satisfies the…

Based on the assumption that time evolves only in one direction and mechanical systems can be described by Lagrangeans, a dynamical C*-algebra is presented for non-relativistic particles at atomic scales. Without presupposing any…

Let $\Gamma$ be a discrete group. A $C^*$-algebra $A$ is an exotic $C^*$-algebra (associated to $\Gamma$) if there exist proper surjective $C^*$-quotients $C^*(\Gamma)\to A\to C^*_r(\Gamma)$. In this paper, we show that a large class of…

Let $\mathbb{H}\trianglelefteq\mathbb{G}$ be a closed normal subgroup of a locally compact quantum group. We introduce a strictly positive group-like element affiliated with $L^{\infty}(\mathbb{G})$ that, roughly, measures the failure of…

The aim of the article is to provide characterizations of the Haage-rup property for locally compact, second countable groups in terms of approximations of some non-ergodic invariant states by mixing ones for actions on unital…

We consider certain positive definite functions on a finitely generated free group G that are defined with respect to a given basis in terms of word length and the number of negative-to-positive generator exponent switches. Some of these…

We introduce and study actions of Fell bundles over discrete groups on Hilbert bundles. Many examples of such actions are presented. We discuss the connection with positive definite bundle maps between Fell bundles, culminating in the…

In this paper, we introduce actions of fusion algebras on unital $C^*$-algebras, and define amenability for fusion algebraic actions. Motivated by S.\ Neshveyev et al.'s work, considering the co-representation ring of a compact quantum…

An algebra $A$ is said to be directly finite if each left invertible element in the (conditional) unitization of $A$ is right invertible. We show that the reduced group ${\rm C}^\ast$-algebra of a unimodular group is directly finite,…

Let $G$ be a metrizable compact group, $A$ a separable C*-algebra and $\alpha$ a strongly continuous action of $G$ on $A$. Provided that $\alpha$ satisfies the continuous Rokhlin property, we show that the property of satisfying the UCT in…

Given an action by a finite quantum group $\mathbb{G}$ on a von Neumann algebra $M$, we prove that a number of familiar $W^*$ properties are equivalent for $M$ and the fixed-point algebra $M^{\mathbb{G}}$ (i.e. hold or not simultaneously…

The paper introduces a (universal) C*-algebra of continuous functions vanishing at infinity on the n-dimensional quantum complex space. To this end, the well-behaved Hilbert space representations of the defining relations are classified.…

We investigate how a C*-algebra could consist of functions on a noncommutative set: a discretization of a C*-algebra $A$ is a $*$-homomorphism $A \to M$ that factors through the canonical inclusion $C(X) \subseteq \ell^\infty(X)$ when…

We describe the envelope C*-algebra associated to a partial action of a countable discrete group on a locally compact space as a groupoid C*-algebra (more precisely as a C*-algebra from an equivalence relation) and we use our approach to…

We define and study entanglement of continuous positive definite functions on products of compact groups. We formulate and prove an infinite-dimensional analog of Horodecki Theorem, giving a necessary and sufficient criterion for…
