We consider several natural ways of expressing the idea that a one-sided ideal in a C*-algebra (or a submodule in a Hilbert C*-module) is large, and show that they differ, unlike the case of two-sided ideals in C*-algebras. We then show how…
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…
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…
The paper studies hereditarily complete superintuitionistic deductive systems, that is, the deductive system which logic is an extension of the intuitionistic propositional logic. It is proven that for deductive systems a criterion of…
We prove that the infinite tensor power of a unital separable C*-algebra absorbs the Jiang-Su algebra Z tensorially if and only if it contains, unitally, a subhomogeneous algebra without characters. This yields a succinct universal property…
By analogy with the well-established notions of just-infinite groups and just-infinite (abstract) algebras, we initiate a systematic study of just-infinite C*-algebras, i.e., infinite dimensional C*-algebras for which all proper quotients…
We prove that a graph C*-algebra with exactly one proper nontrivial ideal is classified up to stable isomorphism by its associated six-term exact sequence in K-theory. We prove that a similar classification also holds for a graph C*-algebra…
We study C*-irreducibility of inclusions of reduced twisted group C*-algebras and of reduced group C*-algebras. We characterize C*-irreducibility in the case of an inclusion arising from a normal subgroup, and exhibit many new examples of…
We study the group $C^*$-algebras $C^*_{L^{p+}}(G)$ - constructed from $L^p$-integrability properties of matrix coefficients of unitary representations - of locally compact groups $G$ acting on (semi-)homogeneous trees of sufficiently large…
Motivated by [2] and [5], the notions of interior and exterior angles between a pair of compatible intermediate W*-subalgebras of an inclusion of W*-algebras with a normal conditional expectation with finite probabilistic index are…
We introduce the fundamental group F(A) of a simple $\sigma$-unital $C^*$-algebra $A$ with unique (up to scalar multiple) densely defined lower semicontinuous trace. This is a generalization of our previous works. Our definition in this…
It has been established by Inoue that a complex locally C*-algebra with a dense ideal posesses a bounded approximate identity which belonges to that ideal. It has been shown by Fritzsche that if a unital complex locally C*-algebra has an…
In this paper we study \emph{essential hereditary undecidability}. Theories with this property are a convenient tool to prove undecidability of other theories. The paper develops the basic facts concerning essentially hereditary…
Let B be a unital C*-algebra, let A be a unital subalgebra, and let E be a conditional expectation from B to A with index-finite type and a quasi-basis of n elements. Then the topological stable rank satisfies \tsr (B) \leq \tsr (A) + n -…
Let X be a path connected, compact metric space and let A be a unital separable simple nuclear Z-stable real rank zero C*-algebra. We classify all the unital *-embeddings (up to approximate unitary equivalence) of C(X) into A. Specifically,…
For elements $a, b$ of a C*-algebra we denote $a=ab$ by $a\ll b$. We show that all $\omega_1$-unital C*-algebras have $\ll$-increasing approximate units, extending a classical result for $\sigma$-unital C*-algebras. We also construct (in…
Given a C*-algebra B which is graded over a discrete group G we consider ideals of B which are invariant under the projections onto each of the grading subspaces. If G is exact and the standard conditional expectation of B is faithful we…
Given a Fell bundle $\mathcal{B}=\{B_t\}_{t\in G}$ over a locally compact and Hausdorff group $G$ and a closed subgroup $H\subset G,$ we construct quotients $C^*_{H\uparrow \mathcal{B}}(\mathcal{B})$ and $C^*_{H\uparrow G}(\mathcal{B})$ of…
We introduce and study a natural notion of selflessness for inclusions of C*-probability spaces, which in particular implies that all intermediate C*-algebras are selfless in the sense of Robert. We identify natural sources of selfless…
Let $A$ be a unital separable \CA and $B=C\otimes {\cal K},$ where $C$ is a unital \CA. Let $\tau: A\to M(B)/B$ be a weakly unital full essential extensions of $A$ by $B.$ We show that there is a bijection between a quotient group of…
