We study diagrams of commutative differential graded algebras (DGAs) over the orbit category $\sO_G$ in the context of equivariant rational homotopy theory. For $G = C_{pq}$ with $p, q$ distinct primes, we give necessary conditions for…

Spielberg's construction of C*-algebras from left cancellative small categories is a common generalization for most C*-algebras one would consider to come from ``combinatorial data,'' including graph and $k$-graph C*-algebras, Li's…

We define united KK-theory for real C*-algebras A and B such that A is separable and B is sigma-unital, extending united K-theory in the sense that KK\crt(\R, B) = K\crt(B). United KK-theory contains real, complex, and self-conjugate…

We obtain partial affirmative answers to the question whether isomorphism of the unitary groups of two C*-algebras, either as topological groups or as discrete groups, implies isomorphism of the C*-algebras as real C*-algebras.

We examine crossed product C*-algebras associated with non-minimal free actions of countably infinite discrete abelian groups on the circle, extending the work of Putnam, Schmidt, and Skau. We obtain a large class of unital separable…

Let A denote the smallest C*-subalgebra of the algebra of all bounded operators on L^2(R) containing: (i) all multiplications a(M) by functions a in C[-\infty,+\infty], (ii) all multiplications e^{ijM}, j in Z, and (iii) all operators of…

Let \alpha:G --> G be an endomorphism of a discrete amenable group such that [G:\alpha(G)]<infinity. We study the structure of the C^* algebra generated by the left convolution operators acting on the left regular representation space,…

Let $f:A \to B$ be a ring homomorphism of not necessarily unital rings and $I\triangleleft A$ an ideal which is mapped by f isomorphically to an ideal of B. The obstruction to excision in K-theory is the failure of the map between relative…

We classify a certain class of minimal actions of a compact Kac algebra with amenable dual on injective factors of type III. Our main technical tools are the structural analysis of type III factors and the theory of canonical extension of…

We solve the isomorphism problem for essential unital $C^*$-algebra extensions of the form $0 \to \mathcal{K} \oplus \mathcal{K} \to E \xrightarrow{\pi} M_n \otimes C(\mathbb{T}) \to 0$. We then relate these to analogs of the Effros Shen AF…

We study a general Kishimoto's problem for automorphisms on simple C*-algebras with tracial rank zero. Let $A$ be a unital separable simple C*-algebra with tracial rank zero and let $\alpha$ be an automorphism. Under the assumption that…

The Isomorphism Conjecture is a conceptional approach towards a calculation of the algebraic K-theory of a group ring RG, where G is an infinite group. In this paper we prove the conjecture in dimensions n<2 for fundamental groups of closed…

We prove the existence of a map of spectra $\tau_A \colon kA \to lA$ between connective topological K-theory and connective algebraic L-theory of a complex $C^*$-algebra A which is natural in A and compatible with multiplicative structures.…

A universal category-theoretical characterization of groupoid equivariant $KK^G$-theory for ${\mathbb{Z}}_2$-graded $C^*$-algebras is established, by observing the ``$KK$-axiom'' that for each $[s,{\cal E} \oplus B, \mathbb{F}] \in…

We introduce a dimension group for a self-similar map as the ${\rm K}_0$-group of the core of the $C^*$-algebra associated with the self-similar map together with the canonical endomorphism. The key step for the computation is an explicit…

To a graph $\Gamma$ one can associate a C^*-algebra $C^*(\Gamma)$ generated by isometries. Such $C^*$-algebras were studied recently by Crisp and Laca. They are a special case of the Toeplitz C^*-algebras $\mathcal{T}(G, P)$ associated to…
