We extend known results about commutative $C^*$-algebras generated Toeplitz operators over the unit ball to the supermanifold setup. This is obtained by constructing commutative $C^*$-algebras of super Toeplitz operators over the super ball…

We say that a contractive Hilbert space operator is universal if there is a natural surjection from its generated C*-algebra to the C*-algebra generated by any other contraction. A universal contraction may be irreducible or a direct sum of…

In a recent paper, Pardo and the first named author introduced a class of C*-algebras which which are constructed from an action of a group on a graph. This class was shown to include many C*-algebras of interest, including all Kirchberg…

Given a graph $E$, an action of a group $G$ on $E$, and a $G$-valued cocycle $\phi$ on the edges of $E$, we define a C*-algebra denoted ${\cal O}_{G,E}$, which is shown to be isomorphic to the tight C*-algebra associated to a certain…

We study the elementary C*-algebra whose elements are the sum of a diagonal plus a compact operator. We describe the structure of the unitary group, the sets of ideals, automorhisms and projections.

Let $L$ be a length function on a group $G$, and let $M_L$ denote the operator of pointwise multiplication by $L$ on $\ell^2(G)$. Following Connes, $M_L$ can be used as a "Dirac" operator for the reduced group C*-algebra $C_r^*(G)$. It…

In the theory of C*-algebras, interesting noncommutative structures arise as deformations of the tensor product. For instance, the rotation algebra may be seen as a scalar twist deformation of the tensor product of the functions on the…

We introduce certain $C^*$-algebras and $k$-graphs associated to $k$ finite dimensional unitary representations $\rho_1,...,\rho_k$ of a compact group $G$. We define a higher rank Doplicher-Roberts algebra $\mathcal{O}_{\rho_1,...,\rho_k}$,…

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…

We show that certain C*-algebras which have been studied among others by Arzumanian, Vershik, Deaconu, and Renault in connection to a measure preserving transformation of a measure space and/or to a covering map of a compact space are…

Our initial data is a transfer operator $L$ for a continuous, countable-to-one map $\varphi:\Delta \to X$ defined on an open subset of a locally compact Hausdorff space $X$. Then $L$ may be identified with a `potential', i.e. a map…

We consider commutative C* -algebras of Toeplitz operators in the weighted Bergman space on the unit ball in $\mathbb{C}^{\mathbf{n}}$. For the algebras of elliptic type we find a new representation, namely as the algebra of operators which…

Let $G=K\ltimes A$ be the semi-direct product group of a compact group $K$ acting on an abelian locally compact group $A$. We describe the $C^*$-algebra $C^*(G)$ of $G$ in terms of an algebra of operator fields defined over the spectrum of…

Given a compact space X and two commuting continuous open surjective maps sigma_1, sigma_2 : X --> X, we construct certain C*-algebras that reflect the dynamics of the N^2-action. When the maps sigma_1, sigma_2 are local homeomorphisms,…
