We characterize the topological non-cancellative cones that are expressible as projective limits of finite powers of $[0,\infty]$. These are also the cones of lower semicontinuous extended-valued traces on AF C*-algebras. Our main result…
The canonical trace on the reduced C*-algebra of a discrete group gives rise to a homomorphism from the K-theory of this C^*-algebra to the real numbers. This paper addresses the range of this homomorphism. For torsion free groups, the…
We investigate the tracial and ideal structures of $C^*$-algebras of quasi-regular representations of stabilizers of boundary actions. Our main tool is the notion of boundary maps, namely $\Gamma$-equivariant unital completely positive maps…
It is shown that any bundle of KMS state spaces which can occur for a flow on a unital separable C*-algebra with a trace state can also be realized by a flow on any given unital infinite-dimensional simple AF algebra with a tracial state…
We investigate almost minimal actions of abelian groups and their crossed products. As an application, given multiplicatively independent integers $p$ and $q$, we show that Furstenberg's $\times p,\times q$ conjecture holds if and only if…
In this paper we study stable finiteness of ample groupoid algebras with applications to inverse semigroup algebras and Leavitt path algebras, recovering old results and proving some new ones. In addition, we develop a theory of (faithful)…
We consider $C^*$-algebras constructed from compact group actions on complex vector bundles $E\to X$ endowed with a Hermitian metric. An action of $G$ by isometries on $E\to X$ induces an action on the $C^*$-correspondence $\Gamma(E)$ over…
Let $F$ be a field. In this note we give a construction for a family of maximal Mathieu subspaces (or Mathieu-Zhao subspaces) of the matrix algebras $M_n(F)$ $(n\ge 2)$. As an application we also give a classification of Mathieu subspaces…
We investigate conformal field theories with gauge group $U(N)$ at arbitrary rank $N$, focusing on the role of trace relations in determining the structure of the Hilbert space. Working in the free trace algebra without imposing relations,…
In this paper, we start the investigation of a new natural approach to "unifying" noncommutative gauge field theories (NCGFT) based on approximately finite-dimensional ($AF$) $C^*$-algebras. The defining inductive sequence of an $AF$…
We consider the Markov operator P_phi on a discrete quantum group given by convolution with a q-tracial state phi. In the study of harmonic elements x, P_phi(x)=x, we define the Martin boundary A_phi. It is a separable C*-algebra carrying…
Magnetism of a very thin antiferromagnetic (AFM) surface CuO has been investigated with the partially oxidized nanocomposites of Cu-CuCl, ~ 200 nm. The samples are characterized by X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy,…
We associate with the ring $R$ of algebraic integers in a number field a C*-algebra $\cT[R]$. It is an extension of the ring C*-algebra $\cA[R]$ studied previously by the first named author in collaboration with X.Li. In contrast to…
Trace scaling automorphisms of stable AF algebras with dimension group totally ordered are outer conjugate if the scaling factors are the same (not equal to one). This is an adaptation of a similar result for the AFD type II_infty factor by…
Polynomial completeness results aim at characterizing those functions that are induced by polynomials. Each polynomial function is congruence preserving, but the opposite need not be true. A finite algebraic structure $\mathbf{A}$ is called…
We give a new definition for the crossed-product of a C*-algebra A by a *-endomorphism \alpha, which depends not only on the pair (A,\alpha) but also on the choice of a transfer operator (defined in the paper). With this we generalize some…
We study universal mapping properties of $(\sigma,\tau)$-derivations over commutative algebras and characterize them over rings of integers of quadratic number fields. As a result we provide extension of some well known results on UFD's of…
We provide an abstract categorical framework that relates the Cuntz semigroups of the C$^*$-algebras $A$ and $A\otimes \mathcal{K}$. This is done through a certain completion of ordered monoids by adding suprema of countable ascending…
Let Q be a finite quiver without oriented cycles, and let $\Lambda$ be the associated preprojective algebra. To each terminal representation M of Q (these are certain preinjective representations), we attach a natural subcategory $C_M$ of…
As an analogue of the topological boundary of discrete groups $\Gamma$, we define the noncommutative topological boundary of tracial von Neumann algebras $(M, \tau)$ and apply it to generalize the main results of [AHO23], showing that for a…
