We generalize the ideal completions of countable discrete groups, as introduced by Brown and Guentner, to second countable Hausdorff \'etale groupoids. Specifically, to every pair consisting of an algebraic ideal in the algebra of bounded…

If a locally compact group G acts on a C*-algebra B, we have both full and reduced crossed products, and each has a coaction of G. We investigate "exotic" coactions in between, that are determined by certain ideals E of the…

We provide a framework for studying concrete C*-algebras associated with algebraic actions of semigroups: Given such an action, we construct an inverse semigroup, and we introduce conditions for algebraic actions that characterize…

Motivated by the problem of characterizing KMS states on the reduced C$^*$-algebras of \'etale groupoids, we show that the reduced norm on these algebras induces a C$^*$-norm on the group algebras of the isotropy groups. This C$^*$-norm…

In this paper, we introduce quotients of \'etale groupoids. Using the notion of quotients, we describe the abelianizations of groupoid C*-algebras. As another application, we obtain a simple proof that effectiveness of an \'etale groupoid…

Exotic group $C^*$-algebras are $C^*$-algebras that lie between the universal and the reduced group $C^*$-algebra of a locally compact group. We consider simple Lie groups $G$ with real rank one and investigate their exotic group…

We give an alternative construction of the essential $C^*$-algebra of an \'etale groupoid, along with an ``amenability'' notion for such groupoids that is implied by the nuclearity of this essential $C^*$-algebra. In order to do this we…

In this paper we suggest a definition for a C*-algebra attached to an injective morphism of some \'Etale groupoid. We take into account all the peculiarities of such objects and present some interesting relations with already well-known…

A semigroupoid is a set equipped with a partially defined associative operation. Given a semigroupoid \Lambda we construct a C*-algebra C*(\Lambda) from it. We then present two main examples of semigroupoids, namely the Markov semigroupoid…

Let $\Gamma$ be a discrete group. To every ideal in $\ell^{\infty}(\G)$ we associate a C$^*$-algebra completion of the group ring that encapsulates the unitary representations with matrix coefficients belonging to the ideal. The general…

Groupoid actions on C*-bundles and inverse semigroup actions on C*-algebras are closely related when the groupoid is r-discrete.

Let $\Gamma$ be a discrete group. When $\Gamma$ is nonamenable, the reduced and full group $C$*-algebras differ and it is generally believed that there should be many intermediate $C$*-algebras, however few examples are known. In this paper…

In this paper, we investigate *-homomorphisms between C*-algebras associated to \'etale groupoids. First, we prove that such a *-homomorphism can be described by closed invariant subsets, groupoid homomorphisms and cocycles under some…

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 investigate recent uniqueness theorems for reduced $C^*$-algebras of Hausdorff \'{e}tale groupoids in the context of inverse semigroups. In many cases the distinguished subalgebra is closely related to the structure of the inverse…

We show that semigroup C*-algebras are groupoid C*-algebras.

An action of a compact, in particular finite group on a C*-algebra is called properly outer if no automorphism of the group that is distinct from identity is implemented by a unitary element of the algebra of local multipliers of the…

A groupoid correspondence on an etale, locally compact groupoid induces a C*-correspondence on its groupoid C*-algebra. We show that the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra for this C*-correspondence relative to an ideal associated to an open invariant…

We obtain partial affirmative answers to the question whether isomorphism of the unitary groups of two C*-algebras, either as topological groups or as discrete groups, implies isomorphism of the C*-algebras as real C*-algebras.

In this paper we give a simple proof of the maximality of dual coactions on full cross-sectional C*-algebras of Fell bundles over locally compact groups. As applications we extend certain exotic crossed-product functors in the sense of…
