We construct countable groups $G$ with the following new degree of W*-superrigidity: if $L(G)$ is virtually isomorphic, in the sense of admitting a bifinite bimodule, with any other group von Neumann algebra $L(\Lambda)$, then the groups…
Let G be a (not necessarily Hausdorff) locally compact groupoid. We introduce a notion of properness for G, which is invariant under Morita-equivalence. We show that any generalized morphism between two locally compact groupoids which…
In this series of papers, we develop the theory of a class of locally compact quantum groupoids, which is motivated by the purely algebraic notion of weak multiplier Hopf algebras. In this Part I, we provide motivation and formulate the…
To every one-sided shift space $\mathsf{X}$ we associate a cover $\tilde{\mathsf{X}}$, a groupoid $\mathcal{G}_{\mathsf{X}}$ and a $\mathrm{C^*}$-algebra $\mathcal{O}_{\mathsf{X}}$. We characterize one-sided conjugacy, eventual conjugacy…
We survey the results required to pass between full and reduced coactions of locally compact groups on C*-algebras, which say, roughly speaking, that one can always do so without changing the crossed-product C*-algebra. Wherever possible we…
We prove that the local (pseudo)group of biholomorphisms stabilizing a minimal, finitely nondegenerate real algebraic submanifold in C^n is a real algebraic local Lie group (the works of S.M. Baouendi, P. Ebenfelt, L.-P. Rothschild and D.…
We present examples of non-Hausdorff, etale, essentially principal groupoids for which three results, known to hold in the Hausdorff case, fail. These results are: (A) the subalgebra of continuous functions on the unit space is maximal…
We describe representations of groupoid C*-algebras on Hilbert modules over arbitrary C*-algebras by a universal property. For Hilbert space representations, our universal property is equivalent to Renault's Integration-Disintegration…
Any $C^*$-algebra can be regarded as a generalization of locally compact, Hausdorff topological space $\mathcal X$. From the commutative commutative Gelfand-Na\u{\i}mark theorem it follows that the spectrum of any commutative $C^*$-algebra…
Well-known work of Renault shows that if $\mathcal{E}$ is a twist over a second countable, effective, \'etale groupoid $G$, then there is a naturally associated Cartan subalgebra of the reduced twisted groupoid C*-algebra $C^*_{r}(G; E)$,…
We introduce the notion of relative topological principality for a family $\{H_\alpha\}$ of open subgroupoids of a Hausdorff \'etale groupoid $G$. The C*-algebras $C^*_r(H_\alpha)$ of the groupoids $H_\alpha$ embed in $ C^*_r(G)$ and we…
We define a groupoid from a labelled space and show that it is isomorphic to the tight groupoid arising from an inverse semigroup associated with the labelled space. We then define a local homeomorphism on the tight spectrum that is a…
We provide the rigorous foundations for a categorical approach to the classification of C*-dynamics up to cocycle conjugacy. Given a locally compact group $G$, we consider a category of (twisted) $G$-C*-algebras, where morphisms between two…
We study the problem of determining when the reduced twisted group C*-algebra associated with a discrete group G is simple and/or has a unique tracial state, and present new sufficient conditions for this to hold. One of our main tools is a…
We investigate dynamical systems consisting of a locally compact Hausdorff space equipped with a partially defined local homeomorphism. Important examples of such systems include self-covering maps, one-sided shifts of finite type and, more…
Let G be a totally disconnected, locally compact group. A closed subgroup of G is locally normal if its normaliser is open in G. We begin an investigation of the structure of the family of closed locally normal subgroups of G. Modulo…
We study the C*-algebra crossed product $C_0(X)\rtimes G$ of a locally compact group $G$ acting properly on a locally compact Hausdorff space $X$. Under some mild extra conditions, which are automatic if $G$ is discrete or a Lie group, we…
The second author showed how Katsura's construction of the C*-algebra of a topological graph E may be twisted by a Hermitian line bundle L over the edge space E. The correspondence defining the algebra is obtained as the completion of the…
This paper continues our investigation into the question of when a homotopy $\omega = \{\omega_t\}_{t \in [0,1]}$ of 2-cocycles on a locally compact Hausdorff groupoid $\mathcal{G}$ gives rise to an isomorphism of the $K$-theory groups of…
We prove a new uniqueness theorem for the tight C*-algebras of an inverse semigroup by generalizing the uniqueness theorem given for \'etale groupoid C*-algebras by Brown, Nagy, Reznikoff, Sims, and Williams. We use this to show that in the…
