We generalise the Dixmier-Douady classification of continuous-trace C*-algebras to Fell algebras. To do so, we show that C*-diagonals in Fell algebras are precisely abelian subalgebras with the extension property, and use this to prove that…

We give a number of equivalent conditions (including weak centrality) for a general $C^*$-algebra to have the centre-quotient property. We show that every $C^*$-algebra $A$ has a largest weakly central ideal $J_{wc}(A)$. For an ideal $I$ of…

We show that a separable C*-algebra $A$ is $\mathcal{Z}$-stable if and only if its uncorrected central sequence algebra $A' \cap A_{\mathcal{U}}$ is pure, if and only if Kirchberg's central sequence algebra $F(A)$ is pure. More generally,…

We show that for a large class of C*-algebras $\mathcal{A}$, containing arbitrary direct limits of separable type I C*-algebras, the following statement holds: If $A\in \mathcal{A}$ and $B$ is a simple projectionless C*-algebra with trivial…

We initiate the study of Cartan subalgebras in C*-algebras, with a particular focus on existence and uniqueness questions. For homogeneous C*-algebras, these questions can be analysed systematically using the theory of fibre bundles. For…

In this paper, we give two properties of C*-algebra that could be deduced from the properties of its large subalgebra. Let A be an infinite dimensional simple unital C*-algebra and let B be a centrally large subalgebra of A, we prove that A…

We introduce a notion of a uniform structure on the set of all representations of a given separable, not necessarilly commutative $C^*$-algebra $\mathfrak{A}$ by introducing a suitable family of metrics on the set of representations of…

We consider three notions of divisibility in the Cuntz semigroup of a C*-algebra, and show how they reflect properties of the C*-algebra. We develop methods to construct (simple and non-simple) C*-algebras with specific divisibility…

We describe a construction for the full C$^*$-algebra of a possibly unsaturated Fell bundle over a possibly non-Hausdorff locally compact \'etale groupoid without appealing to Renault's disintegration theorem. This construction generalises…

We characterize the class of RFD $C^*$-algebras as those containing a dense subset of elements that attain their norm under a finite-dimensional representation. We show further that this subset is the whole space precisely when every…

We show that the unit ball of a full Hilbert $C^*$-module is sequentially compact in a certain weak topology if and only if the underlying $C^*$-algebra is finite dimensional. This provides an answer to the question posed in J.…

A semiregular operator on a Hilbert C^*-module, or equivalently, on the C^*-algebra of `compact' operators on it, is a closable densely defined operator whose adjoint is also densely defined. It is shown that for operators on extensions of…

Let $A$ be a $C^*$-algebra. It is shown that the following conditions are equinvalent: (1) $A$ is scattered, (2) every $C^*$-subalgebra of $A$ is AF, (3) every $C^*$-subalgebra of $A$ has real rank zero.

Finiteness conditions for $C^*$-algebras like AF-embeddability, quasidiagonality, stable finiteness have been studied by many authors and shown to be equivalent for certain classes of $C^*$-algebras. For example, Schfhauser proves that…

Let $p\in(1,\infty)\backslash\{2\}$. We show that every homomorphism from a $C^{*}$-algebra $\mathcal{A}$ into $B(l^{p}(J))$ satisfies a compactness property where $J$ is any set. As a consequence, we show that a $C^{*}$-algebra…

We characterize exotic C*-algebras of twisted, principal \'etale groupoids, together with the abelian subalgebra associated to the unit space, as precisely being the inclusions "$A\subseteq B$" of C*-algebras in which $A$ is abelian,…

We show that a large family of groups without non-abelian free subgroups satisfy the following strengthening of non-amenability: they each have a rich supply of irreducible representations defining exotic C*-algebras. The construction is…

Recently, S. Carpi et al. (Comm. Math. Phys., 402:169-212, 2023) proved that every connected (i.e. haploid) Frobenius algebra in a tensor C$^*$-category is unitarizable (i.e. isomorphic to a special C$^*$-Frobenius algebra). Building on…
