In this paper we show that the universal C*-algebra satisfying the Cuntz-Li relations is generated by an inverse semigroup of partial isometries. We apply Exel's theory of tight representations to this inverse semigroup. We identify the…

We study the topology of the primitive ideal space of groupoid C*-algebras for groupoids with abelian isotropy. Our results include the known results for action groupoids with abelian stabilizers. Furthermore, we obtain complete results…

We study the class of pseudocompact C*-algebras, which are the logical limits of finite-dimensional C*-algebras. The pseudocompact C*-algebras are unital, stably finite, real rank zero, stable rank one, and tracial. We show that the…

Motivated by the problem of characterizing KMS states on the reduced C$^*$-algebras of \'etale groupoids, we show that the reduced norm on these algebras induces a C$^*$-norm on the group algebras of the isotropy groups. This C$^*$-norm…

Let $G$ be a locally compact, Hausdorff, second countable groupoid and $A$ be a separable, $C_0(G^{(0)})$-nuclear, $G$-$C^*$-algebra. We prove the existence of quasi-invariant, completely positive and contractive lifts for equivariant,…

In this paper, we introduce properties including groupoid comparison, pure infiniteness and paradoxical comparison as well as a new algebraic tool called groupoid semigroup for locally compact Hausdorff \'{e}tale groupoids. We show these…

We establish conditions under which an inclusion of finitely aligned left-cancellative small categories induces inclusions of twisted C*-algebras. We also present an example of an inclusion of finitely aligned left-cancellative monoids that…

In this paper, we study topological dynamics on the visual boundary and several combinatorial boundaries associated to $\operatorname{CAT}(0)$ spaces. Through verifying the freeness of Myrberg points on the boundaries, we prove that a large…

Many interesting examples of operator algebras, both self-adjoint and non-self-adjoint, can be constructed from directed graphs. In this survey, we overview the construction of $C^*$-algebras from directed graphs and from two…

We show how to construct a graded locally compact Hausdorff \'etale groupoid from a C*-algebra carrying a coaction of a discrete group, together with a suitable abelian subalgebra. We call this groupoid the extended Weyl groupoid. When the…

For a completely Hausdorff quasi-topological group $G$, we construct a universal pro-$C^*$-algebra $C(E^+G)$ as the non-commutative geometer's analogue of the total space $EG$ of the classifying principal $G$-bundle $EG\to BG$. The…

We introduce and study strongly self-absorbing actions of locally compact groups on C*-algebras. This is an equivariant generalization of a strongly self-absorbing C*-algebra to the setting of C*-dynamical systems. The main result is the…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group and $P \subset G$ be a closed Ore semigroup containing the identity element. Let $V: P \to B(\clh)$ be a representation such that for every $a \in P$, $V_{a}$ is an isometry and the final projections of…

We introduce a new notion of twisted actions of inverse semigroups and show that they correspond bijectively to certain regular Fell bundles over inverse semigroups, yielding in this way a structure classification of such bundles. These…

We initiate the study of the Stone-\v{C}ech transformation groupoid $\mathcal{G} = \mathcal{S}\ltimes\beta\mathcal{S}$ of an inverse semigroup $\mathcal{S}$. We prove that the properties of being Hausdorff, principal, and effective are all…

We prove that twisted groupoid C*-algebras are characterised, up to isomorphism, by having Cartan semigroups, a natural generalisation of normaliser semigroups of Cartan subalgebras. This extends the classic Kumjian-Renault theory to…

Given a not-necessarily Hausdorff, topologically free, twisted \'etale groupoid $(G, L)$, we consider its "essential groupoid C*-algebra", denoted $C^*_{ess}(G, L)$, obtained by completing $C_c(G, L)$ with the smallest among all…
