A C*-algebra (or a group) is called MF (matricial field) if it admits finite dimensional approximate unitary representations which are approximately injective, where approximately is meant with respect to the operator norm. It is proved…

An example is given of a simple, unital C*-algebra which contains an infinite and a non-zero finite projection. This C*-algebra is also an example of an infinite simple C*-algebra which is not purely infinite. A corner of this C*-algebra is…

We describe the envelope C*-algebra associated to a partial action of a countable discrete group on a locally compact space as a groupoid C*-algebra (more precisely as a C*-algebra from an equivalence relation) and we use our approach to…

We give a classification result for a certain class of $C^{*}$-algebras $\mathfrak{A}$ over a finite topological space $X$ in which there exists an open set $U$ of $X$ such that $U$ separates the finite and infinite subquotients of…

In this work we construct a C*-algebra from an injective endomorphisms of some group G, allowing the endomorphism to have infinite cokernel. We generalize results obtained by I. Hirshberg and also by J. Cuntz and A. Vershik. In good cases…

We associate to an algebraic quantum group a C^*-algebraic quantum group and prove that this C^*-algebraic quantum group satisfies an upcoming definition of Masuda, Nakagami & Woronowicz.

In string field theory there is a fundamental object, the algebra of string field states \A, that must be understood better from a mathematical point of view. In particular we are interested in finding, if possible, a C^* structure over it,…

Morphisms and representations of a class of Banach C*-modules, called CQ*algebras, are considered. Together with a general method for constructing CQ*-algebras, two different ways of extending the GNS-representation are presented.

We introduce the notion of a C*-valued weight between two C*-algebras as a generalization of an ordinary weight on a C*-algebra and as a C*-version of operator valued weights on von Neumann algebras. Also, some form of lower semi-continuity…

These notes give an expanded account of my lectures at the CIRM-IHP research school on 'Methods in representation theory and operator algebras', January 6-10, 2025. Their main goal is to explain a proof of a theorem of A. Wassermann, that…

The class of separable C*-algebras which can be written as inductive limits of continuous-trace C*-algebras with spectrum homeomorphic to a disjoint union of trees and trees with a point removed is classified by the Cuntz semigroup.

Let G be a discrete group and $\Gamma$ an almost normal subgroup. The operation of cosets concatanation extended by linearity gives rise to an operator system that is embeddable in a natural C* algebra. The Hecke algebra naturally embeds as…

Let $X$ be a finite connected graph, each of whose vertices has degree at least three. The fundamental group $\Gamma$ of $X$ is a free group and acts on the universal covering tree $\Delta$ and on its boundary $\partial \Delta$, endowed…

We construct compact polyhedra with triangular faces whose links are generalized 3-gons. They are interesting compact spaces covered by Euclidean buildings of type $A_2$. Those spaces give us two-dimensional subshifts, which can be used to…

We introduce the notion of the partial group algebra with projections and relations and show that this C*-algebra is a partial crossed product. Examples of partial group algebras with projections and relations are the Cuntz-Krieger algebras…

In this paper, we characterize the C*-Algebra generated by partial isometries.

In this paper, we consider those multiplication operators M_p on the Bergman space L_a^2(D^2) over the bidisk, defined by a class of polynomials p. Also, this paper consider the reducing subspaces of M_p, the von Neumann algebra W^*(p)…

This paper contains a quite detailed description of the C*-algebra arising from the transformation groupoid of a rational map of degree at least two on the Riemann sphere. The algebra is decomposed stepwise via extensions of familiar…

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,…

We study the internal structure of $C^*$-algebras of right LCM monoids by means of isolating the core semigroup $C^*$-algebra as the coefficient algebra of a Fock-type module on which the full semigroup $C^*$-algebra admits a left action.…
