A topological group $G$ is called extremely amenable if every continuous action of $G$ on a compact space has a fixed point. This concept is linked with geometry of high dimensions (concentration of measure). We show that a von Neumann…

We introduce inner amenability for discrete p.m.p. groupoids and investigate its basic properties, examples, and the connection with central sequences in the full group of the groupoid or central sequences in the von Neumann algebra…

It is shown that if A is a separable, exact C*-algebra which satisfies the Universal Coefficient Theorem (UCT) and has a faithful, amenable trace, then A admits a trace-preserving embedding into a simple, unital AF-algebra with unique…

We will show that for a separable exact $C^*$-algebra with a faithful amenable trace, the property that all amenable traces are quasidiagonal is invariant under homotopy.

We analyze the dichotomy amenable/paradoxical in the context of (discrete, countable, unital) semigroups and corresponding semigroup rings. We consider also F{\o}lner's type characterizations of amenability and give an example of a…

This paper presents a survey of results on traces and quasitraces on C$^*$-algebras, and it provides some new results on traces on ultrapowers and on the existence of faithful traces. As for the former, we exhibit a sequence of traceless…

In this paper we study stable finiteness of ample groupoid algebras with applications to inverse semigroup algebras and Leavitt path algebras, recovering old results and proving some new ones. In addition, we develop a theory of (faithful)…

We study the space of traces associated with arbitrary full free products of unital, separable $C^*$-algebras. We show that, unless certain basic obstructions (which we fully characterize) occur, the space of traces always results in the…

We study a large class of amenable locally compact groups containing all solvable algebraic groups over a local field and their discrete subgroups. We show that the isoperimetric profile of these groups is in some sense optimal among…

We present a stable uniqueness theorem for non-unital C*-algebras. Generalized tracial rank one is defined for stably projectionless simple C*-algebras. Let $A$ and $B$ be two stably projectionless separable simple amenable C*-algebras with…

We show that there is a one-to-one correspondence between compact quantum subgroups of a co-amenable locally compact quantum group $\mathbb{G}$ and certain left invariant C*-subalgebras of $C_0(\mathbb{G})$. We also prove that every compact…

A locally compact group $G$ is called Hermitian if the spectrum $\text{Sp}_{L^1(G)}(f)\subseteq\mathbb R$ for every $f\in L^1(G)$ satisfying $f=f^*$, and called quasi-Hermitian if $\text{Sp}_{L^1(G)}(f)\subseteq\mathbb R$ for every $f\in…

We present a classification theorem for amenable simple stably projectionless C*-algebras with generalized tracial rank one whose $K_0$ vanish on traces which satisfy the Universal Coefficient Theorem. One of them is denoted by ${\cal Z}_0$…

We introduce the fundamental group F(A) of a simple $\sigma$-unital $C^*$-algebra $A$ with unique (up to scalar multiple) densely defined lower semicontinuous trace. This is a generalization of our previous works. Our definition in this…

We establish the tracial stability of a certain class of graph products of C*-algebras. This result involves the development of the "pincushion class" of finite graphs. We then apply this result in two ways. The first application yields a…

We introduce an appropriate notion of inner amenability for locally compact quantum groups, study its basic properties, related notions, and examples arising from the bicrossed product construction. We relate these notions to homological…

We give an explicit description of the tracial state simplex of the $C^*$-algebra $C^*(G)$ of an arbitrary connected, second countable, locally compact, solvable group $G$. We show that every tracial state of $C^*(G)$ lifts from a tracial…

We study the class of selfless C*-probability spaces introduced by Robert. It is known that a selfless tracial algebra has strict comparison and a unique trace. We prove that for separable tracial C*-algebras, selflessness is equivalent to…

When a locally compact group acts on a C*-correspondence, it also acts on the associated Cuntz-Pimsner algebra in a natural way. Hao and Ng have shown that when the group is amenable the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra of the crossed product…

As is well known, the equivalence between amenability of a locally compact group $G$ and injectivity of its von Neumann algebra $\mathcal{L}(G)$ does not hold in general beyond inner amenable groups. In this paper, we show that the…
