This paper characterizes the unital C*-algebra generated by a single invertible element as the unital free product of C[0,1] and C(T). To do this, I develop techniques to split and merge presentations of C*-algebras using free products in…

We consider inductive systems of C*-algebras with completely positive contractive connecting maps. We define a condition, called C*-encoding, which is sufficient for the limit of the system to be completely order isomorphic to a C*-algebra…

We prove that separable C*-algebras which are completely close in a natural uniform sense have isomorphic Cuntz semigroups, continuing a line of research developed by Kadison - Kastler, Christensen, and Khoshkam. This result has several…

A universal category-theoretical characterization of groupoid equivariant $KK^G$-theory for ${\mathbb{Z}}_2$-graded $C^*$-algebras is established, by observing the ``$KK$-axiom'' that for each $[s,{\cal E} \oplus B, \mathbb{F}] \in…

In this paper, we introduce a class of generalized tracial approximation ${\rm C^*}$-algebras. Let $\mathcal{P}$ be a class of unital ${\rm C^*}$-algebras which have tracially $\mathcal{Z}$-absorbing (tracial nuclear dimension at most $n$,…

Let C be a separable unital C*-algebra, not isomorphic to the complex numbers, equipped with a faithful tracial state. Let A be a unital direct limit of one dimensional NCCW complexes, also equipped with a faithful tracial state. Suppose…

We define a notion of tracial $\mathcal{Z}$-absorption for simple not necessarily unital C*-algebras, study it systematically, and prove its permanence properties. This extends the notion defined by Hirshberg and Orovitz for unital…

We study the class of simple C*-algebras introduced by Villadsen in his pioneering work on perforated ordered K-theory. We establish six equivalent characterisations of the proper subclass which satisfies the strong form of Elliott's…

We introduce a new class of operator algebras -- tracially complete C*-algebras -- as a vehicle for transferring ideas and results between C*-algebras and their tracial von Neumann algebra completions. We obtain structure and classification…

We introduce a notion of a uniform structure on the set of all representations of a given separable, not necessarilly commutative $C^*$-algebra $\mathfrak{A}$ by introducing a suitable family of metrics on the set of representations of…

We provide a new proof of the Kirchberg--Phillips theorem by adapting the framework laid out by Carri\'on--Gabe--Schafhauser--Tikuisis--White for classifying separable simple unital nuclear stably finite $\mathcal Z$-stable…

The semigroups of unital extensions of separable $C^\ast$-algebras come in two flavours: a strong and a weak version. By the unital $\mathrm{Ext}$-groups, we mean the groups of invertible elements in these semigroups. We use the unital…

We prove that the automorphisms of any separable C*-algebra that does not have continuous trace are not classifiable by countable structures up to unitary equivalence. This implies a dichotomy for the Borel complexity of the relation of…

Building on Enders--Schemeitat--Tikuisis' classification, we show that a separable $C^*$-algebra $A$ with approximately inner flip in the UCT class is $K$-theoretically self-absorbing if and only if for every finite group $G$, the Bernoulli…

The Cuntz semigroup of a C*-algebra is an important invariant in the structure and classification theory of C*-algebras. It captures more information than K-theory but is often more delicate to handle. We systematically study the lattice…
