We introduce diagonal dimension, a version of nuclear dimension for diagonal sub-C*-algebras (sometimes also referred to as diagonal C*-pairs). Our concept has good permanence properties and detects more refined information than nuclear…

We further examine the concept of uniform property Gamma for C*-algebras introduced in our joint work with Winter. In addition to obtaining characterisations in the spirit of Dixmier's work on central sequence in II$_1$ factors, we…

In this article I study a number of topological and algebraic dimension type properties of simple C*-algebras and their interplay. In particular, a simple C*-algebra is defined to be (tracially) (m,\bar{m})-pure, if it has (strong tracial)…

Cuntz and Li have defined a C*-algebra associated to any integral domain, using generators and relations, and proved that it is simple and purely infinite and that it is stably isomorphic to a crossed product of a commutative C*-algebra. We…

We define equivariant semiprojectivity for C*-algebras equipped with actions of compact groups. We prove that the following examples are equivariantly semiprojective: arbitrary finite dimensional C*-algebras with arbitrary actions of…

We introduce the concept of finitely coloured equivalence for unital *-homomorphisms between C*-algebras, for which unitary equivalence is the 1-coloured case. We use this notion to classify *-homomorphisms from separable, unital, nuclear…

We develop the notion of Rokhlin dimension for partial actions of finite groups, extending the well-established theory for global systems. The partial setting exhibits phenomena that cannot be expected for global actions, usually stemming…

In this paper, we introduce two new approximation properties for \'etale groupoids, almost elementariness and (ubiquitous) fiberwise amenability, inspired by Matui's and Kerr's notions of almost finiteness. In fact, we show that, in their…

We introduce diagonal comparison, a regularity property of diagonal pairs where the sub-C*-algebra has totally disconnected spectrum, and establish its equivalence with the concurrence of strict comparison of the ambient C*-algebra and…

Approximate morphisms have seen significant study across many areas of mathematics, for instance, in the theory of Absolute (Neighborhood) Retracts in topology, or of almost-commuting unitary matrices in analysis. This paper initiates study…

In this paper, we introduce a property of topological dynamical systems that we call finite dynamical complexity. For systems with this property, one can in principle compute the $K$-theory of the associated crossed product $C^*$-algebra by…

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…

We extend the notion of Rokhlin dimension from topological dynamical systems to $C^*$-correspondences. We show that in the presence of finite Rokhlin dimension and a mild quasidiagonal-like condition (which, for example, is automatic for…

Consider a minimal free topological dynamical system $(X, T, \mathbb{Z}^d)$. It is shown that the comparison radius of the crossed product C*-algebra $\mathrm{C}(X) \rtimes \mathbb{Z}^d$ is at most the half of the mean topological dimension…

Let A be a unital simple separable C*-algebra. If $A$ is nuclear and infinite-dimensional, it is known that strict comparison is equivalent to Z-stability if the extreme boundary of its tracial state space is non-empty, compact and of…

We establish $\mathcal{Z}$-stability for crossed products of outer actions of amenable groups on $\mathcal{Z}$-stable $C^*$-algebras under a mild technical assumption which we call McDuff property with respect to invariant traces. We obtain…
