We realise the algebra $\mathcal W$, the algebra $\mathcal Z_0$ and the algebras $\mathcal Z_0\otimes A$, where $A$ is a unital UHF algebra as Fra\"iss\'e limits of suitable classes of structures. In doing so, we show that such algebras are…

We study strongly outer actions of discrete groups on C*-algebras in relation to (non)amenability. In contrast to related results for amenable groups, where uniqueness of strongly outer actions on the Jiang-Su algebra is expected, we show…

The generator problem was posed by Kadison in 1967, and it remains open until today. We provide a solution for the class of C*-algebras absorbing the Jiang-Su algebra Z tensorially. More precisely, we show that every unital, separable,…

We obtain three results: 1) Every compact simplex bundle with exactly one point in the fiber over 0 is the KMS bundle of a periodic flow on the Jiang-Su algebra. 2) Let A be a separable unital C*-algebra with a unique trace state. Suppose…

We construct in this note a unital properly infinite C*-algebra which is not K$_1$-injective.

We present a unified apoach to the study of separable and Frobenius algebras. The crucial observation is thsat both cases are related to the nonlinear equation $R^{12}R^{23}=R^{23}R^{13}=R^{13}R^{12}$, called the FS-equation. Given a…

We give an explicit description of the tracial state simplex of the $C^*$-algebra $C^*(G)$ of an arbitrary connected, second countable, locally compact, solvable group $G$. We show that every tracial state of $C^*(G)$ lifts from a tracial…

Let $A$ be a unital simple AH-algebra with stable rank one and real rank zero such that $kx=0$ for all $x\in {\rm ker}\rho_A,$ the subgroup of infinitesmal elements in $K_0(A),$ and for the same integer $k\ge 1.$ We show that $A$ has…

We give an example of an aleph-zero-categorical theory which is not G-compact. The countable model of this theory does not have AZ-enumerations.

The uniform tracial completion of a C*-algebra A with compact non-empty trace space T(A) is obtained by completing the unit ball with respect to the uniform 2-seminorm $\|a\|_{2,T(A)}=\sup_{\tau \in T(A)} \tau(a^*a)^{1/2}$. The trace…

It is shown that a uniform algebra can have a nonzero bounded point derivation while having no nontrivial Gleason parts. Conversely, a uniform algebra can have a nontrivial Gleason part while having no nonzero, even possibly unbounded,…

Let ${\cal A}_1$ be the class of all unital separable simple $C^*$-algebras $A$ such that $A\otimes U$ has tracial rank at most one for all UHF-algebras of infinite type. It has been shown that amenable ${\cal Z}$-stable $C^*$-algebras in…

Applying Popa's orthogonality method to a new class of groups, we construct amenable group factors which are prime and have no infinite dimensional regular abelian *-subalgebras. By adjusting Farah--Katsura's solution of Dixmier's problem…

We present a classification theorem for amenable simple stably projectionless C*-algebras with generalized tracial rank one whose $K_0$ vanish on traces which satisfy the Universal Coefficient Theorem. One of them is denoted by ${\cal Z}_0$…

We show that if $A$ is a simple (not necessarily unital) tracially $\mathcal{Z}$-absorbing C*-algebra and $\alpha \colon G \to \mathrm{Aut} (A)$ is an action of a finite group $G$ on $A$ with the weak tracial Rokhlin property, then the…

Non-commutative torsors (equivalently, two-cocycles) for a Hopf algebra can be used to twist comodule algebras. After surveying and extending the literature on the subject, we prove a theorem that affords a presentation by generators and…

We use order zero maps to express the Jiang-Su algebra Z as a universal C*-algebra on countably many generators and relations, and we show that a natural deformation of these relations yields the stably projectionless algebra W studied by…

Suppose $A$ is a separable unital $C(X)$-algebra each fibre of which is isomorphic to the same strongly self-absorbing and $K_{1}$-injective $C^{*}$-algebra $D$. We show that $A$ and $C(X) \otimes D$ are isomorphic as $C(X)$-algebras…

We consider a certain class of unital simple stably finite C^*-algebras which absorb the Jiang-Su algebra Z tensorially. Under a mild assumption, we show that the crossed product of a C^*-algebra in this class by a strongly outer action of…

Albert algebras, a specific kind of Jordan algebra, are naturally distinguished objects among commutative non-associative algebras and also arise naturally in the context of simple affine group schemes of type $F_4$, $E_6$, or $E_7$. We…
