In this paper we study the nuclearity and weak containment property of reduced cross-sectional C*-algebras of Fell bundles over inverse semigroups. In order to develop the theory, we first prove an analogue of Fell's absorption trick in the…
Given a continuous open surjective morphism $\pi :G\to H$ of \'etale groupoids with amenable kernel, we construct a Fell bundle $E$ over $H$ and prove that its C*-algebra $C^*_r(E)$ is isomorphic to $C^*_r(G)$. This is related to results of…
We study Fell bundles on groupoids from the viewpoint of quantale theory. Given any saturated upper semicontinuous Fell bundle $\pi:E\to G$ on an \'etale groupoid $G$ with $G_0$ locally compact Hausdorff, equipped with a suitable completion…
We study the $C^*$-algebras associated to upper-semicontinuous Fell bundles over second-countable Hausdorff groupoids. Based on ideas going back to the Packer--Raeburn "Stabilization Trick," we construct from each such bundle a groupoid…
We describe a construction for the full C$^*$-algebra of a possibly unsaturated Fell bundle over a possibly non-Hausdorff locally compact \'etale groupoid without appealing to Renault's disintegration theorem. This construction generalises…
With each Fell bundle over a discrete group G we associate a partial action of G on the spectrum of the unit fiber. We discuss the ideal structure of the corresponding full and reduced cross-sectional C*-algebras in terms of the dynamics of…
Given a full right-Hilbert C*-module $\mathbf{X}$ over a C*-algebra $A$, the set $\mathbb{K}_{A}(\mathbf{X})$ of $A$-compact operators on $\mathbf{X}$ is the (up to isomorphism) unique C*-algebra that is strongly Morita equivalent to the…
Given a Fell bundle $\mathcal{B}=\{B_t\}_{t\in G}$ over a LCH group and a closed subgroup $H\subset G,$ we show that all the *-representations of $\mathcal{B}_H:=\{B_t\}_{t\in H}$ can be induced to *-representations of $\mathcal{B}$ by…
We define possibly unsaturated, upper semicontinuous Fell bundles over Hausdorff, locally compact groupoids and establish a universal property for representations of their full section C*-algebras on Hilbert modules over arbitrary…
We show that every Fell bundle B over a locally compact group G is "proper" in a sense recently introduced by Ng. Combining our results with those of Ng we show that if B satisfies the "approximation property" then it is amenable in the…
We give a notion of equivalence for Fell bundles over groups, not necessarily saturated nor separable, and show that equivalent Fell bundles have Morita-Rieffel equivalent cross-sectional $C^*$-algebras. Our notion is originated in the…
We construct the reduced and essential C*-algebra of a Fell bundle over an \'etale groupoid (in full generality, without any second countability, local compactness or Hausdorff assumptions, even on the unit space) directly from sections…
Fell's absorption principle states that the left regular representation of a group absorbs any unitary representation of the group when tensored with it. In a weakened form, this result carries over to the left regular representation of a…
Let $P$ be a submonoid of a group $G$ and let $\mathcal{E}=(\mathcal{E}_p)_{p\in P}$ be a product system over $P$ with coefficient C*-algebra $A$. We show that the following C*-algebras are canonically isomorphic: the C*-envelope of the…
We investigate structural properties of the reduced cross-sectional algebra $C^*_r(\mathcal{B})$ of a Fell bundle $\mathcal{B}$ over a discrete group $G$. Conditions allowing one to determine the ideal structure of $C^*_r(\mathcal{B})$ are…
We show that the existence of a continuous conditional expectation from a Fell bundle to a Fell subbundle implies that the full cross-sectional C*-algebra of the subbundle is contained in the full cross-sectional C*-algebra of the bundle,…
We study two classes of operator algebras associated with a unital subsemigroup $P$ of a discrete group $G$: one related to universal structures, and one related to co-universal structures. First we provide connections between universal…
In this paper we study deformations of $C^*$-algebras that are given as cross-sectional $C^*$-algebras of Fell bundles over locally compact groups $G$. Our deformation comes from a direct deformation of the Fell bundles via certain…
Further to the functional representations of C$^*$-algebras proposed by R. Cirelli, A. Mania and L. Pizzocchero, we consider in this article the uniform K\"ahler bundle (in short, UKB) description of some C$^*$-algebraic subjects. In…
We extend the theory of tensor products of C*-algebras to the larger category of Fell bundles over locally compact groups. We prove that, like in the case of C*-algebras, there exist maximal and minimal tensor products. Given two Fell…
