In this short note we prove that the reduced group C*-algebra of a locally compact group admits a non-zero trace if and only if the amenable radical of the group is open. This completely answers a question raised by Forrest, Spronk and…

This note is motivated by Kirchberg's conjecture that the local lifting property (LLP) implies the lifting property (LP) for $C^*$-algebras. The author recently constructed by a "local" method an example of $C^*$-algebra with the LLP and…

A theorem is presented on existence and uniqueness up to the topological *-isomorphism of universal locally C*-algebra for an arbitrary locally JB-algebra.

It has been a longstanding problem whether every amenable operator algebra is isomorphic to a (necessarily nuclear) C*-algebra. In this note, we give a nonseparable counterexample. The existence of a separable counterexample remains an open…

We introduce the notion of locally finite decomposition rank, a structural property shared by many stably finite nuclear C*-algebras. The concept is particularly relevant for Elliott's program to classify nuclear C*-algebras by K-theory…

We initiate a study of non-commutative Choquet boundary for spaces of unbounded operators. We define the notion of local boundary representations for local operator systems in locally C$^*$-algebras and prove that local boundary…

A functor from the category of directed trees with inclusions to the category of commutative C*-algebras with injective *-homomorphisms is constructed. This is used to define a functor from the category of directed graphs with inclusions to…

We introduce a class of Lie algebras called admissible Lie algebras. We show that a locally finite admissible simple Lie algebra contains a nonzero maximal toral subalgebra and the corresponding root system is an irreducible locally finite…

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…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be an open set and $f_k \in W^{s,p}(\Omega;\mathbb{R}^n)$ be a sequence of homeomorphisms weakly converging to $f \in W^{s,p}(\Omega;\mathbb{R}^n)$. It is known that if $s=1$ and $p > n-1$ then $f$ is…

Motivated by advances in categorical probability, we introduce non-commutative almost everywhere (a.e.) equivalence and disintegrations in the setting of C*-algebras. We show that C*-algebras (resp. W*-algebras) and a.e. equivalence classes…

Following Robert's [26], we study the structure of unitary groups and groups of approximately inner automorphisms of unital $C^*$-algebras, taking advantage of the former being Banach-Lie groups. For a given unital $C^*$-algebra $A$, we…

Let ${\cal A}_1$ be the class of all unital separable simple $C^*$-algebras $A$ such that $A\otimes U$ has tracial rank at most one for all UHF-algebras of infinite type. It has been shown that amenable ${\cal Z}$-stable $C^*$-algebras in…

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…

Recently, S. Carpi et al. (Comm. Math. Phys., 402:169-212, 2023) proved that every connected (i.e. haploid) Frobenius algebra in a tensor C$^*$-category is unitarizable (i.e. isomorphic to a special C$^*$-Frobenius algebra). Building on…

We investigate if a unital C(X)-algebra is properly infinite when all its fibres are properly infinite. We show that this question can be rephrased in several different ways, including the question if every unital properly infinite…

Let A be a unital separable C*-algebra. We observe that A is type I if and only if the CNT-entropy of every inner automorphism of A is zero.

We prove that a countable semigroup $S$ is locally finite if and only if the Arens-Michael envelope of its semigroup algebra is a $(DF)$-space. This is a counterpart to a recent result of the author, which asserts that $S$ is finitely…

We show that it is consistent with ZFC that there is a simple nuclear non-separable C*-algebra which is not isomorphic to its opposite algebra. We can furthermore guarantee that this example is an inductive limit of unital copies of the…

In this paper, we show that every completely semi-$\phi$-map on a submodule of a Hilbert $C^*$-module has a completely semi-$\phi$-map extension on the whole of module. We also investigate the extendability of $\phi$-maps and provide…
