The Calkin algebra is not isomorphic to the corona of the stabilization of the Cuntz algebra~${\mathcal O}_\infty$, any other Kirchberg algebra, or even the corona of the stabilization of any unital, ${\mathcal Z}$-stable ${\mathrm…

When $\mathcal D$ is strongly self-absorbing we say an inclusion $B \subseteq A$ is $\mathcal D$-stable if it is isomorphic to the inclusion $B \otimes \mathcal D \subseteq A \otimes \mathcal D$. We give ultrapower characterizations and…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a separable nuclear C*-algebra, and $\mathcal{B}$ be a nonunital separable simple $\mathcal{Z}$-stable C*-algebra. Continuing the work from Gabe-Lin-Ng, we classify all essential extensions, with large complement, of…

Say that a separable, unital C*-algebra D is strongly self-absorbing if there exists an isomorphism $\phi: D \to D \otimes D$ such that $\phi$ and $id_D \otimes 1_D$ are approximately unitarily equivalent $*$-homomorphisms. We study this…

We show that a separable C*-algebra $A$ is $\mathcal{Z}$-stable if and only if its uncorrected central sequence algebra $A' \cap A_{\mathcal{U}}$ is pure, if and only if Kirchberg's central sequence algebra $F(A)$ is pure. More generally,…

We show that there exists a separable, nuclear C*-algebra with real rank zero and trivial K-theory such that its multiplier and corona algebra have real rank one. This disproves two conjectures of Brown and Pedersen. We also compute the…

We give an example of an exact, stably finite, simple. separable C*-algebra D which is not isomorphic to its opposite algebra. Moreover, D has the following additional properties. It is stably finite, approximately divisible, has real rank…

We study the extent of countable saturation for coronas of abelian C*-algebras. In particular, we show that the corona algebra of $C_0(\bbR^n)$ is countably saturated if and only if $n=1$.

We present unified proofs of several properties of the corona of $\sigma$-unital C*-algebras such as AA-CRISP, SAW*, being sub-$\sigma$-Stonean in the sense of Kirchberg, and the conclusion of Kasparov's Technical Theorem. Although our…

We study permanence properties of the classes of stable and so-called D-stable C*-algebras, respectively. More precisely, we show that a C_0(X)-algebra A is stable if all its fibres are, provided that the underlying compact metrizable space…

This article concerns the structure of $\mathrm{C}^{\ast}$-algebraic group actions induced on corona algebras from a given $\sigma$-unital $\mathrm{C}^{\ast}$-dynamical system over a locally compact group $G$. We prove that such actions…

In 2007 Phillips and Weaver showed that, assuming the Continuum Hypothesis, there exists an outer automorphism of the Calkin algebra. (The Calkin algebra is the algebra of bounded operators on a separable complex Hilbert space, modulo the…

A C*-algebra $A$ is said to be stable if it is isomorphic to $A \otimes K(\ell_2)$. Hjelmborg and R\o rdam have shown that countable inductive limits of separable stable C*-algebras are stable. We show that this is no longer true in the…

We prove several rigidity results for corona $C^*$-algebras and \v{C}ech-Stone remainders under the assumption of Forcing Axioms. In particular, we prove that a strong version of Todor\v{c}evi\'c's $\OCA$ and Martin's Axiom at level…

In 1976, D. Voiculescu proved that every separable unital sub-C*-algebra of the Calkin algebra is equal to its (relative) bicommutant. In his minicourse (see reference), G. Pedersen asked in 1988 if Voiculescu's theorem can be extended to a…

It is shown that if $A$ and $B$ are unital separable simple nuclear $\mathcal Z$-stable C$^*$-algebras and there is a unital embedding $A \rightarrow B$ which is invertible on $KK$-theory and traces, then $A \cong B$. In particular, two…

It is shown that a separable C*-algebra is inner quasidiagonal if and only if it has a separating family of quasidiagonal irreducible representations. As a consequence, a separable C*-algebra is a strong NF algebra if and only if it is…

Let A be a unital separable C*-algebra, and D a K_1-injective strongly self-absorbing C*-algebra. We show that if A is D-absorbing, then the crossed product of A by a compact second countable group or by Z or by R is D-absorbing as well,…

The main result here is that a simple separable C*-algebra is Z-stable (where Z denotes the Jiang-Su algebra) if (i) it has finite nuclear dimension or (ii) it is approximately subhomogeneous with slow dimension growth. This generalizes the…

The Corona Factorization Property, originally invented to study extensions of C*-algebras, conveys essential information about the intrinsic structure of the C*-algebras. We show that the Corona Factorization Property of a \sigma-unital…
