We prove some stability results for certain classes of C*-algebras. We prove that whenever $A$ is a finite-dimensional C*-algebra, $B$ is a C*-algebra and $\phi\colon A\to B$ is approximately a $^*$-homomorphism then there is an actual…
Let A be a unital separable simple infinite-dimensional nuclear C*-algebra with at least one tracial state. We prove that if the trace space of A has compact finite-dimensional extreme boundary then there exist unital embeddings of matrix…
Let $A$ be a simple separable unital locally approximately subhomogeneous C*-algebra (locally ASH algebra). It is shown that $A\otimes Q$ can be tracially approximated by unital Elliott-Thomsen algebras with trivial $\textrm{K}_1$-group,…
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…
For an arbitrary countable directed graph E we show that the only possible values of the stable rank of the associated Cuntz-Krieger algebra C*(E) are 1, 2 or \infty. Explicit criteria for each of these three cases are given. We…
Let $A$ be a unital separable simple $C^*$-algebra with tracial rank zero and let $x, \, y\in A$ be two normal elements. We show that $x$ is in the closure of the convex full of the unitary obit of $y$ if and only if there exists a sequence…
For any solvable Lie group whose exponential map $\exp_G\colon{\mathfrak g}\to G$ is bijective, we prove that the real rank of $C^*(G)$ is equal to $\dim({\mathfrak g}/[{\mathfrak g},{\mathfrak g}])$. We also indicate a proof of a similar…
In the program to classify C$^*$-algebras, it is very important to find abstract conditions which are sufficient to imply that a given algebra has tracial rank zero, in the sense of Huaxin Lin. Even in the presence of a unique trace, we…
The Jiang--Su algebra Z has come to prominence in the classification program for nuclear C*-algebras of late, due primarily to the fact that Elliott's classification conjecture predicts that all simple, separable, and nuclear C*-algebras…
We show that, when $A$ is a separable C*-algebra, every countably generated Hilbert $A$-module is projective (with bounded module maps as morphisms). We also study the approximate extensions of bounded module maps. In the case that $A$ is a…
Let A be a unital simple separable C*-algebra with strict comparison of positive elements. We prove that the Cuntz semigroup of A is recovered functorially from the Murray-von Neumann semigroup and the tracial state space T(A) whenever the…
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 define "tracial" analogs of the Rokhlin property for actions of finite groups, approximate representability of actions of finite abelian groups, and of approximate innerness. We prove four analogs of related "nontracial" results. First,…
A C*-algebra is said to be K-stable if its nonstable K-groups are naturally isomorphic to the usual K-theory groups. We study continuous $C(X)$-algebras, each of whose fibers are K-stable. We show that such an algebra is itself K-stable…
Let A be a unital maximal full algebra of operator fields with base space the k-cube [0,1]^k and fibre algebras, say, {A_t}_{t \in [0,1]^k}. Then the stable rank of A is bounded above by the supremum of the stable ranks sr(C([0,1]^k)…
Let $A$ and $C$ be two unital simple C*-algebas with tracial rank zero. Suppose that $C$ is amenable and satisfies the Universal Coefficient Theorem. Denote by ${{KK}}_e(C,A)^{++}$ the set of those $\kappa$ for which…
In this paper we show that for an almost finite minimal ample groupoid $G$, its reduced $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebra $C_r^*(G)$ has real rank zero and strict comparison even though $C_r^*(G)$ may not be nuclear in general. Moreover, if we further…
We introduce the notion of weakly (strongly) infinite real rank for unital $C^{\ast}$-algebras. It is shown that a compact space $X$ is weakly (strongly) infine-dimensional if and only if $C(X)$ has weakly (strongly) infinite real rank.…
We construct a simple, unital AH algebra which is shape equivalent to its tensor product with any infinite-dimensional UHF algebra, has the same tracial simplex as the said tensor product, and yet is not isomorphic to it. An analogous…
We show that a tracial state on a unital C*-algebra admits a Haar unitary if and only if it is diffuse, if and only if it does not dominate a tracial functional that factors through a finite-dimensional quotient. It follows that a unital…
