Let $G$ be a locally compact groupoid. If $X$ is a free and proper $G$-space, then $(X*X)/G$ is a groupoid equivalent to $G$. We consider the situation where $X$ is proper but no longer free. The formalism of groupoid C*-algebras and their…
Given a graph of C*-algebras, we prove a long exact sequence in KK-theory for both the maximal and the vertex-reduced fundamental C*-algebras in the presence of possibly non GNS-faithful conditional expectations. We deduce from it the…
We study the structure of C*-algebras associated with compactly aligned product systems over group embeddable right LCM-semigroups. Towards this end we employ controlled maps and a controlled elimination method that associates the original…
We develop a new criterion to tell if a group $G$ has the maximal gap of $1/2$ in stable commutator length (scl). For amalgamated free products $G = A \star_C B$ we show that every element $g$ in the commutator subgroup of $G$ which does…
A braided category of C*-algebras is constructed. Its objects are C*-algebras endowed with an action of the group R, its morphisms are C*-algebras morphisms intertwining the action of R, the crossed product of its two objects essentially…
In this paper, we prove results on the relative radius of comparison of C*-algebras and their crossed products, focusing on the non-unital setting. More precisely, let $A$ be a stably finite simple non-type-I (not necessarily unital)…
We define a broad class of crossed product C*-algebras of the form C(G)xG, where G is a discrete countable amenable residually finite group, and G is a profinite completion of G. We show that they are unital separable simple nuclear…
We examine inclusions of $C^*$-algebras of the form $A^H \subseteq A \rtimes_{r} G$, where $G$ and $H$ are groups acting on a unital simple $C^*$-algebra $A$ by outer automorphisms and $H$ is finite. It follows from a theorem of Izumi that…
Let C be a separable unital C*-algebra, not isomorphic to the complex numbers, equipped with a faithful tracial state. Let A be a unital direct limit of one dimensional NCCW complexes, also equipped with a faithful tracial state. Suppose…
We consider amalgamated free product II$_1$ factors $M = M_1 *_B M_2 *_B ...$ and use ``deformation/rigidity'' and ``intertwining'' techniques to prove that any relatively rigid von Neumann subalgebra $Q\subset M$ can be intertwined into…
For any reduced amalgamated free product $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebra $(A,E)=(A_1, E_1) \ast_D (A_2,E_2)$, we introduce and study a canonical ambient $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebra $\Delta\mathbf{T}(A,E)$ of $A$ which generalizes the crossed product…
We consider a family of dynamical systems (A,alpha,L) in which alpha is an endomorphism of a C*-algebra A and L is a transfer operator for \alpha. We extend Exel's construction of a crossed product to cover non-unital algebras A, and show…
We compute the K-theory for C*-algebras naturally associated with rings of integers in number fields. The main ingredient is a duality theorem for arbitrary global fields. It allows us to identify the crossed product arising from affine…
We introduce crossed products of a $C^*$-algebra $A$ by a completely positive map $\varrho:A\to A$ relative to an ideal in $A$. They generalize various crossed products by endomorphisms when $\varrho$ is multiplicative. When $A$ is…
Given two unital continuous C*-bundles A and B over the same Hausdorff compact base space X, we study the continuity properties of their different amalgamated free products over C(X).
For an action of a finite group on a C*-algebra, we present some conditions under which properties of the C*-algebra pass to the crossed product or the fixed point algebra. We mostly consider the ideal property, the projection property,…
It is shown that a separable exact residually finite dimensional C*-algebra with locally finitely generated (rational) even K-homology embeds in a uniformly hyperfinite C*-algebra.
We investigate the representation theory of the crossed-product C*-algebra associated to a compact group G acting on a locally compact space X when the stability subgroups vary discontinuously. Our main result applies when G has a principal…
Let (A,G) be a C*-dynamical system with G discrete. In this paper we investigate the ideal structure of the reduced crossed product C*-algebra and in particular we determine sufficient - and in some cases also necessary - conditions for A…
We introduce the tracial quasi-Rokhlin property for an automorphism alpha of a unital C*-algebra A, which is not assumed to be simple. We show that under suitable hypotheses, the associated crossed product C*-algebra C*(Z,A,alpha) is…
