The purpose of this paper is to introduce a consistent notion of universal and reduced crossed products by actions and coactions of groups on operator systems and operator spaces. In particular we shall put emphasis to reveal the full power…

Let $K$ be a number field with ring of integers $R$. Given a modulus $\mathfrak{m}$ for $K$ and a group $\Gamma$ of residues modulo $\mathfrak{m}$, we consider the semi-direct product $R\rtimes R_{\mathfrak{m},\Gamma}$ obtained by…

We introduce a non-commutative generalization of the notion of (approximately proper) equivalence relation and propose the construction of a "quotient space". We then consider certain one-parameter groups of automorphisms of the resulting…

We consider a fixed free and proper action of a locally compact group $G$ on a space $T$, and actions $\alpha:G\to \Aut A$ on $C^*$-algebras for which there is an equivariant embedding of $(C_0(T),\rt)$ in $(M(A),\alpha)$. A recent theorem…

We investigate Matui-Sato's notion of property (SI) for C*-dynamics, this time with a focus on actions of possibly non-amenable groups. The main result is a generalization of earlier work: For any countable group $\Gamma$ and any…

A group is said to be C*-simple if its reduced C*-algebra is simple. We establish an intrinsic (group-theoretic) characterization of groups with this property. Specifically, we prove that a discrete group is C*-simple if and only if it has…

We introduce the trivial intersection property for concrete operator spaces and we show that a unital space with this property has no nontrivial boundary ideals. We provide various examples of such spaces, among which are strongly reflexive…

It is shown that no local periodicity is equivalent to the aperiodicity condition for arbitrary finitely-aligned k-graphs. This allows us to conclude that C*(\Lambda) is simple if and only if \Lambda is cofinal and has no local periodicity.

Recent results of Laca, Raeburn, Ramagge and Whittaker show that any self-similar action of a groupoid on a graph determines a 1-parameter family of self-mappings of the trace space of the groupoid C*-algebra. We investigate the fixed…

We prove that the pure state space is homogeneous under the action of the group of asymptotically inner automorphisms for all the separable simple nuclear C*-algebras. If simplicity is not assumed for the C*-algebras, the set of pure states…

Let $X$ be a compact Hausdorff space, and let $\gamma$ be an iterated function system on $X$. Kajiwara and Watatani showed that if $\gamma$ is self-similar and satisfies the open set condition and some additional technical conditions,…

Consider a coaction $\delta$ of a locally compact group $G$ on a \cstar algebra $A$, and a closed normal subgroup $N$ of $G$. We prove, following results of Echterhoff for abelian $G$, that Mansfield's imprimitivity between…

Let $G$ be a countable discrete amenable group, and $\Lambda$ be a strongly connected finite $k$-graph. If $(G,\Lambda)$ is a pseudo free and locally faithful self-similar action which satisfies the finite-state condition, then the…

We study the class of pseudocompact C*-algebras, which are the logical limits of finite-dimensional C*-algebras. The pseudocompact C*-algebras are unital, stably finite, real rank zero, stable rank one, and tracial. We show that the…

A well-known theorem of Blackadar and Handelman states that every unital stably finite C*-algebra has a bounded quasitrace. Rather strong generalizations of stable finiteness to the non-unital case can be obtained by either requiring the…
