We give a brief survey of the development of the Elliott program of classification of separable simple amenable $C^*$-algebras.
We use a characterization of the graph C*-algebras C*(E) as the Stacey crossed product C*(E)^\gamma \times_{\beta_E} N, to study its ideal properties in terms of the (non-classical) C*-dynamical system (C*(E)^\gamma, \beta_E)
We present a general new method for constructing pointwise ergodic sequences on countable groups, which is applicable to amenable as well as to non-amenable groups and treats both cases on an equal footing. The principle underlying the…
We consider a class of C*-algebras associated to one parameter continuous tensor product systems of Hilbert modules, which can be viewed as continuous counterparts of Pimsner's Toeplitz algebras. By exhibiting a homotopy of…
We investigate amenability for $W^*$-Fell bundles over a discrete group $G$, with a focus on its characterization via approximation properties and conditional expectations. Building on the notion of $W^*$-amenability, we construct an…
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 find necessary and sufficient conditions for the subalgebra of analytic elements associated with a periodic C*-dynamical system to be a maximal norm-closed subalgebra. Our conditions are in terms of the Arveson spectrum of the action. We…
To a large class of graphs of groups we associate a C*-algebra universal for generators and relations. We show that this C*-algebra is stably isomorphic to the crossed product induced from the action of the fundamental group of the graph of…
Moore characterized the amenability of automorphism groups of countable ultrahomogeneous structures by a Ramsey-type property. We extend this result to automorphism groups of metric Fra\"iss\'e structures, which encompass all Polish groups.…
Suppose that H is a complex Hilbert space and that B(H) denotes the bounded linear operators on H. We show that every abelian, amenable operator algebra is similar to a C*-algebra. We do this by showing that if A is an abelian subalgebra of…
Let $\gamma = (\gamma_1,...,\gamma_N)$, $N \geq 2$, be a system of proper contractions on a complete metric space. Then there exists a unique self-similar non-empty compact subset $K$. We consider the union ${\mathcal G} = \cup_{i=1}^N…
For a topological group $G$, amenability can be characterized by the amenability of the convolution Banach algebra $L^1(G)$. Here a Banach algebra $A$ is called amenable if every bounded derivation from $A$ into any dual--type…
We prove that the C*-algebra of the universal (n,m)-dynamical system may be obtained, up to Morita-Rieffel equivalence, as the crossed-product relative to an interaction on a commutative C*-algebra. The interaction involved is shown not to…
In this paper, we show that the set of all ideals of the C*-algebras of a singly generated dynamical system corresponds bijectively to the set of all subsets of the product of the space of the system and the circle satisfying three…
We develop in this paper some general techniques to analyze action sets of small doubling for probability measure-preserving actions of amenable groups. As an application of these techniques, we prove a dynamical generalization of Kneser's…
Given a Fell bundle $\B$, over a discrete group $\Gamma$, we construct its reduced cross sectional algebra $C^*_r(\B)$, in analogy with the reduced crossed products defined for C*-dynamical systems. When the reduced and full cross sectional…
Let $G$ be a compact quantum group. We show that given a $G$-equivariant $\mathrm{C}^*$-correspondence $E$, the Pimsner algebra $\mathcal{O}_E$ can be naturally made into a $G$-$\mathrm{C}^*$-algebra. We also provide sufficient conditions…
In this paper, we realize C*-algebras of generalized Boolean dynamical systems as partial crossed products. Reciprocally, we give some sufficient conditions for a partial crossed product to be isomorphic to a C*-algebra of a generalized…
In this note we state a conjecture that characterizes unital C*-algebras for which the unitary group is amenable as a topological group in the norm topology. We prove the conjecture for simple, separable, stably finite, unital, $\mathcal…
We give a number of examples of exotic actions of locally compact groups on separable nuclear C*-algebras. In particular, we give examples of the following: (1) Minimal effective actions of ${\mathbb{Z}}$ and $F_n$ on unital nonsimple prime…
