It is shown that, for an arbitrary free and minimal $\mathbb Z^n$-action on a compact Hausdorff space $X$, the crossed product C*-algebra $\mathrm{C}(X)\rtimes\mathbb Z^n$ always has stable rank one, i.e., invertible elements are dense.…
An automorphism $\beta$ of a $k$-graph $\Lambda$ induces a crossed product $C^* ( \Lambda ) \rtimes_\beta \mathbb{Z}$ which is isomorphic to a $(k+1)$-graph algebra $C^* ( \Lambda \times_\beta \mathbb{Z})$. In this paper we show how this…
Motivated by work of Poguntke we study the question under what conditions simple subquotients of crossed products $A\rtimes_{\alpha}G$ by (twisted) actions of abelian groups $G$ are isomorphic to simple twisted group algebras of abelian…
We consider Exel's new construction of a crossed product of a C*-algebra A by an endomorphism \alpha. We prove that this crossed product is universal for an appropriate family of covariant representations, and we show that it can be…
This paper is motivated primarily by the question of when the maximal and reduced crossed products of a $G$-$C^*$-algebra agree (particularly inspired by results of Matsumura and Suzuki), and the relationships with various notions of…
Let $X$ be an infinite compact metric space with finite covering dimension and let $\alpha, \beta : X\to X$ be two minimal homeomorphisms. We prove that the crossed product $C^*$-algebras $C(X)\rtimes_\alpha\Z$ and $C(X)\rtimes_\belta\Z$…
Given a unital $C(X)$-algebra $A$ discrete group $\Gamma$ and an action $\alpha: \Gamma\to \text{aut}(A)$ which leaves $C(X)$ invariant and such that $C(X)\rtimes_{\alpha,r} \Gamma$ is simple, and a $2$-cocycle $\omega$, we obtain a…
Given a normal subgroup bundle $\mathcal A$ of the isotropy bundle of a groupoid $\Sigma$, we obtain a twisted action of the quotient groupoid $\Sigma/\mathcal A$ on the bundle of group $C^*$-algebras determined by $\mathcal A$ whose…
A subgroup of an amenable group is amenable. The $C^*$-algebra version of this fact is false. This was first proved by M.-D. Choi who proved that the non-nuclear $C^*$-algebra $C^*_r(\ZZ_2*\ZZ_3)$ is a subalgebra of the nuclear Cuntz…
Suppose that $\alpha$ is an action of the semigroup $\mathbb{N}^{2}$ on a $C^*$-algebra $A$ by endomorphisms. Let $A\times_{\alpha}^{\textrm{piso}} \mathbb{N}^{2}$ be the associated partial-isometric crossed product. By applying an earlier…
We show that for a locally compact group G there is a one-to-one correspondence between G-invariant weak*-closed subspaces E of the Fourier-Stieltjes algebra B(G) containing B_r(G) and quotients C*_E(G) of C*(G) which are intermediate…
Let a discrete group $G$ act on a unital simple C$^*$-algebra $A$ by outer automorphisms. We establish a Galois correspondence $H\mapsto A\rtimes_{\alpha,r}H$ between subgroups of $G$ and C$^*$-algebras $B$ satisfying $A\subseteq B…
In a recent paper, Pardo and the first named author introduced a class of C*-algebras which which are constructed from an action of a group on a graph. This class was shown to include many C*-algebras of interest, including all Kirchberg…
Let $\Gamma \subset SL(2, \mathbb Z)$ be a finite subgroup acting on the irrational rotational algebra $\mathcal A_\theta$ via the restriction of the canonical action of $SL(2,\mathbb Z)$. Consider the crossed product algebra $\mathcal…
Let $(\A, \alpha)$ and $(\B, \beta)$ be C*-dynamical systems and assume that $\A$ is a separable simple C*-algebra and that $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are *-automorphisms. Then the semicrossed products $\A \times_{\alpha} \bbZ^{+}$ and $\B…
Let $G$ be a finite group and $H$ a normal subgroup. $D(H;G)$ is the crossed product of $C(H)$ and ${\Bbb C}G$ which is only a subalgebra of $D(G)$, the quantum double of $G$. One can construct a $C^*$-subalgebra ${\mathcal{F}}_{_H}$ of the…
If A is a C*-algebra, G a locally compact group, K{\subset}G a compact subgroup and {\alpha}:G{\to}Aut(A) a continuous homomorphism, let Ax_{{\alpha}}G denote the crossed product. In this paper we prove that Ax_{{\alpha}}G is nuclear…
Consider a projective limit G of finite groups G_n. Fix a compatible family \delta^n of coactions of the G_n on a C*-algebra A. From this data we obtain a coaction \delta of G on A. We show that the coaction crossed product of A by \delta…
We introduce {\it covariant structures} $\left\{(\A,\k),(\a,\aa),\(\ha,\haa\)\right\}$ formed of a separable $C^*$-algebra $\A$, a measurable twisted action $(\a,\aa)$ of the second-countable locally compact group $\G$\,, a measurable…
Let $G$ be a discrete group acting on a von Neumann algebra $M$ by properly outer $*$-automorphisms. In this paper we study the containment $M \subseteq M\rtimes_\alpha G$ of $M$ inside the crossed product. We characterize the intermediate…
