It is shown that for any infinite dimensional simple unital AF algebra A and any closed lower bounded set K of real numbers containing zero there is a flow on A for which the set of possible inverse temperatures is K.
We exhibit a unital simple mono-tracial AF algebra A with the property that for any compact set K of real numbers containing 0 there is a periodic flow on A such the set of possible inverse temperatures for that flow is K, and for each…
It is shown that any bundle of KMS state spaces which can occur for a flow on a unital separable C*-algebra with a trace state can also be realized by a flow on any given unital infinite-dimensional simple AF algebra with a tracial state…
Let $\varphi:X\to X$ be a homeomorphism of a compact metric space $X$. For any continuous function $F:X\to \mathbb{R}$ there is a one-parameter group $\alpha^{F}$ of automorphisms on the crossed product $C^*$-algebra…
We consider operator-algebraic dynamical systems given by actions of the real line on unital $C^*$-algebras, and especially the equilibrium states (or KMS states) of such systems. We are particularly interested in systems built from the…
We consider a family of Cuntz-Pimsner algebras associated to self-similar group actions, and their Toeplitz analogues. Both families carry natural dynamics implemented by automorphic actions of the real line, and we investigate the…
Spielberg has recently shown that Baumslag-Solitar groups associated to pairs of positive integers are quasi-lattice ordered in the sense of Nica. Thus they have tractable Toeplitz algebras. Each of these algebras carries a natural…
We obtain three results: 1) Every compact simplex bundle with exactly one point in the fiber over 0 is the KMS bundle of a periodic flow on the Jiang-Su algebra. 2) Let A be a separable unital C*-algebra with a unique trace state. Suppose…
We introduce a non-commutative generalization of the notion of (approximately proper) equivalence relation and propose the construction of a "quotient space". We then consider certain one-parameter groups of automorphisms of the resulting…
To any periodic, unital and full C*-dynamical system (A, \alpha, R) an invertible operator s acting on the Banach space of trace functionals of the fixed point algebra is canonically associated. KMS states correspond to positive…
Given any unital, finite, classifiable C$^*$-algebra $A$ with real rank zero and any compact simplex bundle with the fibre at zero being homeomorphic to the space of tracial states on $A$, we show that there exists a flow on $A$ realising…
We provide a general description of the KMS states for flows whose fixed point algebra satisfies a certain regularity condition. This is the applied to crossed products by discrete groups, and in particular to certain flows on crossed…
We analyze the free energy and construct the Gibbs-KMS states for a class of quantum lattice systems, at low temperatures and when the interactions are almost diagonal in a suitable basis. We study systems with continuous symmetry, but our…
For every Hilbert bimodule over a C*-algebra, there are natural gauge actions of the circle on the associated Toeplitz algebra and Cuntz-Pimsner algebra, and hence natural dynamics obtained by lifting these gauge actions to actions of the…
Given a topologically free action of a countable group $G$ on a compact metric space $X$, there is a canonical correspondence between continuous 1-cocycles for this group action and diagonal 1-parameter groups of automorphisms of the…
We consider a family of $*$-commuting local homeomorphisms on a compact space, and build a compactly aligned product system of Hilbert bimodules (in the sense of Fowler). This product system has a Nica-Toeplitz algebra and a Cuntz-Pimsner…
For open quantum systems coupled to a thermal bath at inverse temperature $\beta$, it is well known that under the Born-, Markov-, and secular approximations the system density matrix will approach the thermal Gibbs state with the bath…
Several authors have recently been studying the equilibrium or KMS states on the Toeplitz algebras of finite higher-rank graphs. For graphs of rank one (that is, for ordinary directed graphs), there is a natural dynamics obtained by lifting…
In this article we show that the quasi-free flows on the Cuntz algebra $\mathcal{O}_2$ are generically classifiable by the inverse temperature of their unique KMS state. Along the way, we show that a large class of quasi-free flows on the…
We give a notion of quantum automorphism group of graph C*-algebras without sink at critical inverse temperature. This is defined to be the universal object of a category of CQG's having a linear action in the sense of [11] and preserving…
