In this article we investigate when a homogeneous ideal in a graded ring is normal, that is, when all positive powers of the ideal are integrally closed. We are particularly interested in homogeneous ideals in an N-graded ring generated by…

It is proved that classifiable simple separable nuclear purely infinite C*-algebras having finitely generated K-theory and torsion-free K_1 are semiprojective. This is accomplished by exhibiting these algebras as C*-algebras of infinite…

Given a compact, metric space X, we show that the commutative C*-algebra C(X) is semiprojective if and only if X is an absolute neighborhood retract of dimension at most one. This confirms a conjecture of Blackadar. Generalizing to the…

This paper continues the study of K-theoretic invariants for semigroup C*-algebras attached to ax+b-semigroups over rings of algebraic integers in number fields. We show that from the semigroup C*-algebra together with its canonical…

In this paper, we define on one hand, the notions of characteristics as well as central characteristics ideals of a given Leibniz algebra g and provide a necessary condition under which for two given subalgebras J and K of g such that, J IS…

We characterize exotic C*-algebras of twisted, principal \'etale groupoids, together with the abelian subalgebra associated to the unit space, as precisely being the inclusions "$A\subseteq B$" of C*-algebras in which $A$ is abelian,…

Inner ideals of simple locally finite dimensional Lie algebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 are described. In particular, it is shown that a simple locally finite dimensional Lie algebra has a non-zero proper inner…

Let F denote either the real or complex field. An ideal I in the free *-algebra F<x,x*> in g freely noncommuting variables and their formal adjoints is a *-ideal if I = I*. When a real *-ideal has finite codimension, it satisfies a strong…

We consider the functor C that to a unital C*-algebra A assigns the partial order set C(A) of its commutative C*-subalgebras ordered by inclusion. We investigate how some C*-algebraic properties translate under the action of C to…

Let $A$ be a Noetherian ring, $J\subseteq A$ an ideal and $C$ a finitely generated $A$-module. In this note we would like to prove the following statement. Let $\{I_n\}_{n\geq 0}$ be a collection of ideals satisfying : (i) $I_n\supseteq…

Let $C\subset\mathbb{N}^p$ be an integer polyhedral cone. An affine semigroup $S\subset C$ is a $ C$-semigroup if $| C\setminus S|<+\infty$. This structure has always been studied using a monomial order. The main issue is that the choice of…

In this paper we analyse the structure of the Cuntz semigroup of certain $C(X)$-algebras, for compact spaces of low dimension, that have no $\mathrm{K}_1$-obstruction in their fibres in a strong sense. The techniques developed yield…

We develop a theory of type semigroups for arbitrary twisted, not necessarily Hausdorff \'etale groupoids. The type semigroup is a dynamical version of the Cuntz semigroup. We relate it to traces, ideals, pure infiniteness, and stable…

We define equivariant semiprojectivity for C*-algebras equipped with actions of compact groups. We prove that the following examples are equivariantly semiprojective: arbitrary finite dimensional C*-algebras with arbitrary actions of…

We answer the title question for sigma-unital C*-algebras. The answer is that the algebra must be the direct sum of a dual C*-algebra and a C*-algebra satisfying a certain local unitality condition. We also discuss similar problems in the…
