We say that a unital C*-algrebra A has the approximate positive factorization property (APFP) if every element of A is a norm limit of products of positive elements of A. (There is also a definition for the nonunital case.) T. Quinn has…

We demonstrate that pure C*-algebras form a robust class by proving that pureness follows from very weak comparison and divisibility properties. Using this, we show that every simple, non-elementary C*-algebra with a unique quasitrace and…

Let $(X, \Gamma)$ be a free and minimal topological dynamical system, where $X$ is a separable compact Hausdorff space and $\Gamma$ is a countable infinite discrete amenable group. It is shown that if $(X, \Gamma)$ has the Uniform Rokhlin…

We introduce a bivariant version of the Cuntz semigroup as equivalence classes of order zero maps generalizing the ordinary Cuntz semigroup. The theory has many properties formally analogous to KK-theory including a composition product. We…

In this paper we study Cuntz--Pimsner algebras associated to $\mathrm{C}^*$-correspondences over commutative $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras from the point of view of the $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebra classification programme. We show that when the…

We study the problem of determining when the reduced twisted group C*-algebra associated with a discrete group G is simple and/or has a unique tracial state, and present new sufficient conditions for this to hold. One of our main tools is a…

We study the Haagerup property for C*-algebras. We first give new examples of C*-algebras with the Haagerup property. A nuclear C*-algebra with a faithful tracial state always has the Haagerup property, and the permanence of the Haagerup…

Let $A$ be an $AH$ algebra $A=\lim\limits_{n\to \infty}(A_{n}=\bigoplus\limits_{i=1}\limits^{t_{n}}P_{n,i}M_{[n,i]}(C(X_{n,i}))P_{n,i}, \phi_{n,m})$, where $X_{n,i}$ are compact metric spaces, $t_{n}$ and $[n,i]$ are positive integers, and…

We consider the notion of equivariant uniform property Gamma for actions of countable discrete groups on C*-algebras that admit traces. In case the group is amenable and the C*-algebra has a compact tracial state space, we prove that this…

The aim of this article is to describe a class of *-algebras that allows to treat well-behaved algebras of unbounded operators independently of a representation. To this end, Archimedean ordered *-algebras (*-algebras whose real linear…

We associate a $C^*$-algebra to a partial action of the integers acting on the base space of a vector bundle, using the framework of Cuntz--Pimsner algebras. We investigate the structure of the fixed point algebra under the canonical gauge…

We study properties of C*-algebras obtained from the nonstandard hull construction (a generalization of the ultraproduct of C*-algebras). Among others, we prove that the properties of being an infinite and a properly infinite C*-algebra are…

To an arbitrary directed graph we associate a row-finite directed graph whose C*-algebra contains the C*-algebra of the original graph as a full corner. This allows us to generalize results for C*-algebras of row-finite graphs to…

A collection of partial isometries whose range and initial projections satisfy a specified set of conditions often gives rise to a partial representation of a group. The C*-algebra generated by the partial isometries is thus a quotient of…

It is shown that a unital C*-algebra A has the Dixmier property if and only if it is weakly central and satisfies certain tracial conditions. This generalises the Haagerup-Zsido theorem for simple C*-algebras. We also study a uniform…

The Lifting Idempotent Property ($LIP$) of ideals in commutative rings inspired the study of Boolean lifting properties in the context of other concrete algebraic structures ($MV$-algebras, commutative l-groups, $BL$-algebras, bounded…

We show that the dimension of the Cuntz semigroup of a C*-algebra is determined by the dimensions of the Cuntz semigroups of its separable sub-C*-algebras. This allows us to remove separability assumptions from previous results on the…

In this paper, we introduce a notion of a self-similar action of a group $G$ on a $k$-graph $\Lambda$, and associate it a universal C*-algebra $\O_{G,\Lambda}$. We prove that $\O_{G,\Lambda}$ can be realized as the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra of…

We introduce a new class of C^*-algebras, which is a generalization of both graph algebras and homeomorphism C^*-algebras. This class is very large and also very tractable. We prove the so-called gauge-invariant uniqueness theorem and the…

Let $\Gamma$ be a discrete group. To every ideal in $\ell^{\infty}(\G)$ we associate a C$^*$-algebra completion of the group ring that encapsulates the unitary representations with matrix coefficients belonging to the ideal. The general…
