Given a good homology theory E and a topological space X, the E-homology of X is not just an E_{*}-module but also a comodule over the Hopf algebroid (E_{*}, E_{*}E). We establish a framework for studying the homological algebra of…

Given a unital $C(X)$-algebra $A$ discrete group $\Gamma$ and an action $\alpha: \Gamma\to \text{aut}(A)$ which leaves $C(X)$ invariant and such that $C(X)\rtimes_{\alpha,r} \Gamma$ is simple, and a $2$-cocycle $\omega$, we obtain a…

Let $\Gamma$ denote a finite, simple and connected graph. Fix a vertex $x$ of $\Gamma$ which is not a leaf and let $T=T(x)$ denote the Terwilliger algebra of $\Gamma$ with respect to $x$. Assume that the unique irreducible $T$-module with…

We prove that unital graph C*-algebras often admit a convenient decomposition into amalgamated free products. We use this to give a complete characterization of when a unital graph C*-algebra is residually finite-dimensional and when it is…

In this article I study a number of topological and algebraic dimension type properties of simple C*-algebras and their interplay. In particular, a simple C*-algebra is defined to be (tracially) (m,\bar{m})-pure, if it has (strong tracial)…

We consider C*-algebras associated with stable and unstable equivalence in hyperbolic dynamical systems known as Smale spaces. These systems include shifts of finite type, in which case these C*-algebras are both AF-algebras. These algebras…

Building on an argument by Toms and Winter, we show that if $A$ is a simple, separable, unital, $\mathcal{Z}$-stable C*-algebra, then the crossed product of $C(X,A)$ by an automorphism is also Z-stable, provided that the automorphism…

We exhibit examples of actions of countable discrete groups on both simple and non-simple nuclear stably finite C*-algebras that are tracially amenable but not amenable. We furthermore obtain that, under the additional assumption of strict…

For an action of a discrete group $\Gamma$ on a set $X$, we show that the Schreier graph on $X$ has property A if and only if the permutation representation on $\ell_2X$ generates an exact $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebra. This is well known in the…

In his study of the relative Dixmier property for inclusions of von Neumann algebras and of $C^*$-algebras, Popa considered a certain property of automorphisms on $C^*$-algebras, that we here call the strong averaging property. In this note…

We prove the following two results. First, the isometry semigroup of a unital properly infinite nuclear C*-algebra is right amenable. Second, the unitary group of a unital simple monotracial C*-algebra whose tracial GNS representation is…

For $n\geq 3,$ let $\Gamma=SL_n(\mathbb Z).$ We prove the following superridigity result for $\Gamma$ in the context of operator algebras. Let $L(\Gamma)$ be the von Neumann algebra generated by the left regular representation of $\Gamma.$…

Let A be a unital AF-algebra (simple or non-simple) and let \alpha be an automorphism of A. Suppose that \alpha has certain Rokhlin property and A is \alpha-simple. Suppose also that there is an integer J\geq1 such that…

When a unital \ca $A$ has topological stable rank one (write $\tsr(A) = 1$), we know that $\tsr(pAp) \leq 1$ for a non-zero projection $p \in A$. When, however, $\tsr(A) \geq 2$, it is generally faluse. We prove that if a unital C*-algebra…

It is shown that a separable C*-algebra is inner quasidiagonal if and only if it has a separating family of quasidiagonal irreducible representations. As a consequence, a separable C*-algebra is a strong NF algebra if and only if it is…

We show that for a large class of actions $\Gamma \curvearrowright \mathcal{A}$ of $C^*$-simple groups $\Gamma$ on unital $C^*$-algebras $\mathcal{A}$, including any non-faithful action of a hyperbolic group with trivial amenable radical,…

Inspired by Franks' classification of irreducible shifts of finite type we provide a short list of allowed moves on graphs that preserves the stable isomorphism class of the associated C*-algebras. We show that if two graphs have stably…

Following up on previous work, we prove a number of results for C*-algebras with the weak ideal property or topological dimension zero, and some results for C*-algebras with related properties. Some of the more important results include:…

Thoma's theorem states that a group algebra $C^*(\Gamma)$ is of type I if and only if $\Gamma$ is virtually abelian. We discuss here some similar questions for the quantum groups, our main result stating that, under suitable virtually…

To a directed graph $E$ is associated a $C^*$-algebra $C^* (E)$ called a graph $C^*$-algebra. There is a canonical action $\gamma$ of ${\bf T}$ on $C^* (E)$, called the gauge action. In this paper we present necessary and sufficient…
