We consider *-linear maps into a commutative C*-algebra C (X) of continuous functions on a locally compact Hausdorff space X with certain specified properties and prove two results: (1) an extension result for a class of *-linear maps Y -->…

In [Lu6] Lusztig defined a certain algebra $H,$ which is a direct sum of various algebras $H_{\mathfrak{o}}.$ We establish an explicit algebra isomorphism between each algebra $H_{\mathfrak{o}}$ and some matrix algebra with coefficients in…

In this paper we show that the $\mathrm{K}$-homology groups of a separable C*-algebra can be enriched with additional descriptive set-theoretic information, and regarded as definable groups. Using a definable version of the Universal…

We describe a proof of the following folklore theorem: If $\cX = G/K$ is the homogeneous space of a simply connected compact semisimple Lie group with Poisson-Lie stabilizers, then the $q$-deformed algebras of regular functions $\CC[\cX_q]$…

We develop an algebraic formalism for topological $\mathbb{T}$-duality. More precisely, we show that topological $\mathbb{T}$-duality actually induces an isomorphism between noncommutative motives that in turn implements the well-known…

We study the dg-algebra $\Omega ^\bullet_{A|\mathbb{R}}$ of algebraic de Rham forms of a real soft function algebra $A$, i.e., the algebra of global sections of a soft subsheaf of $C_X$, the sheaf of continuous functions on a space $X$. We…

We exhibit a countably infinite family of simple, separable, nuclear, and mutually non-isomorphic C*-algebras which agree on K-theory and traces. The algebras do not absorb the Jiang-Su algebra Z tensorially, answering a question of N. C.…

In this note we analyze the C*-algebra associated with a branched covering both as a groupoid C*-algebra and as a Cuntz-Pimsner algebra. We determine conditions when the algebra is simple and purely infinite. We indicate how to compute the…

We prove that "unitary deformation K-theory" takes products of finitely generated groups to coproducts of algebra spectra over ku, the connective K-theory spectrum. Additionally, we give spectral sequences for computing the homotopy groups…

We construct the full and reduced C*-algebras of an ample groupoid from its complex Steinberg algebra. We also show that our construction gives the same C*-algebras as the standard constructions. In the last section, we consider an…

A surjective endomorphism or, more generally, a polymorphism in the sense of \cite{SV}, of a compact abelian group $H$ induces a transformation of $L^2(H)$. We study the C*-algebra generated by this operator together with the algebra of…

Androulidakis and Skandalis showed how to associate a holonomy groupoid, a smooth convolution algebra and a C*-algebra to any singular foliation. In this note, we consider the singular foliations of a one-dimensional manifold given by…

We introduce and study locally AW*-algebras (Baer locally C*-algebras) as a locally multiplicatively-convex generalization of AW*-algebras of Kaplansky. Among other basic properties of these algebras, it is established that: {\bullet} A…

We compute the K-theory of the C*-algebra of symmetric words in two universal unitaries. This algebra is the fixed point C*-algebra for the order-two automorphism of the full C*-algebra of the free group on two generators which switches the…

In this paper, we present a natural implementation of singular value decomposition (SVD) and polar decomposition of an arbitrary multivector in nondegenerate real and complexified Clifford geometric algebras of arbitrary dimension and…

The noncommutative Fourier transform of the irrational rotation C*-algebra is shown to have a K-inductive structure (at least for a large concrete class of irrational parameters, containing dense $G_\delta$'s). This is a structure for…

The author has previously shown that solvable Lie A-algebras and complemented solvable Lie algebras decompose as a vector space direct sum of abelian subalgebras, and their ideals relate nicely to this decomposition. However, neither of…

It is shown that if $A$ and $B$ are unital separable simple nuclear $\mathcal Z$-stable C$^*$-algebras and there is a unital embedding $A \rightarrow B$ which is invertible on $KK$-theory and traces, then $A \cong B$. In particular, two…

Let $A$ be a C*-algebra, $J \subset A$ a C*-subalgebra, and let $B$ be a stable C*-algebra. Under modest assumptions we organize invertible C*-extensions of $A$ by $B$ that are trivial when restricted onto $J$ to become a group…

We discuss the relative K-theory for a $C^{*}$-algebra, $A$, together with a $C^{*}$-subalgebra, $A' \subseteq A$. The relative group is denoted $K_{i}(A';A), i = 0, 1$, and is due to Karoubi. We present a situation of two pairs $A'…
