Given an action $\alpha$ of a discrete group $G$ on a unital C*-algebra $A$, we introduce a natural concept of $\alpha$-negative definiteness for functions from $G$ to $A$, and examine some of the first consequences of such a notion. In…

We show that coincidence of the full and reduced crossed product $C^\ast$-algebras of a group action on a unital commutative $C^\ast$-algebra implies amenability of the action whenever the group is exact. This is a partial answer to a…

Let $V$ be an irreducible complex analytic space of dimension two with normal singularities and $\vr:\mathbb{C^*}\times V\to V$ a holomorphic action of the group $\mathbb{C^*}$ on $V$. Denote by $\fa_\vr$ the foliation on $V$ induced by…

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…

Generalizing work by Pinzari and Roberts, we characterize actions of a compact quantum group G on C*-algebras in terms of what we call weak unitary tensor functors from Rep G into categories of C*-correspondences. We discuss the relation of…

We describe the envelope C*-algebra associated to a partial action of a countable discrete group on a locally compact space as a groupoid C*-algebra (more precisely as a C*-algebra from an equivalence relation) and we use our approach to…

We show an equivariant Kirchberg-Phillips-type absorption theorem for pointwise outer actions of discrete amenable groups on Kirchberg algebras with respect to natural model actions on the Cuntz algebras $\mathcal{O}_\infty$ and…

This paper generalizes the basic notions of additive and multiplicative combinatorics to the setting of group actions: if $G$ is a group acting on a set $X$, and we have subsets $A\subseteq G$ and $Y\subseteq X$ such that the set of pairs…

Let $G_\Gamma\curvearrowright X$ and $G_\Lambda\curvearrowright Y$ be two free measure-preserving actions of one-ended right-angled Artin groups with trivial center on standard probability spaces. Assume they are irreducible, i.e. every…

Given a non-singular action $\Gamma \curvearrowright (X,\mu)$, we define the $*$-algebra $\mathbb C_{\rm fp}[\Gamma \curvearrowright X]$ of operators of finite dynamical propagation associated with this action. This assignment is completely…

We introduce and study the notions of boundary actions and of the Furstenberg boundary of a discrete quantum group. As for classical groups, properties of boundary actions turn out to encode significant properties of the operator algebras…

We show that if G is a discrete group which does not have the Haagerup property but does have an unbounded cocycle into a C_0 representation and if G acts on a finite von Neumann algebra B such that the inclusion B \subset (B \rtimes G) has…

We study the action of the homeomorphism group of a surface $S$ on the fine curve graph ${\mathcal C }^\dagger(S)$. While the definition of $\mathcal{C}^\dagger(S)$ parallels the classical curve graph for mapping class groups, we show that…

We introduce {\it covariant structures} $\left\{(\A,\k),(\a,\aa),\(\ha,\haa\)\right\}$ formed of a separable $C^*$-algebra $\A$, a measurable twisted action $(\a,\aa)$ of the second-countable locally compact group $\G$\,, a measurable…

To a directed graph $E$ is associated a $C^*$-algebra $C^* (E)$ called a graph $C^*$-algebra. There is a canonical action $\gamma$ of ${\bf T}$ on $C^* (E)$, called the gauge action. In this paper we present necessary and sufficient…

The subject of this thesis is the modular group of automorphisms acting on the massive algebra of local observables having their support in bounded open subsets of Minkowski space. After a compact introduction to micro-local analysis and…

In this paper, we introduce a notion of a self-similar action of a group $G$ on a $k$-graph $\Lambda$, and associate it a universal C*-algebra $\O_{G,\Lambda}$. We prove that $\O_{G,\Lambda}$ can be realized as the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra of…

The main results of the paper are: \begin{Prop}\label{GenSvarc-Milnor} A group $G$ acting coarsely on a coarse space $(X,\CC)$ induces a coarse equivalence $g\to g\cdot x_0$ from $G$ to $X$ for any $x_0\in X$. \end{Prop} Theorem:…

Let $\Lambda$ be a countably infinite property (T) group, and let $D$ be UHF-algebra of infinite type. We prove that there exists a continuum of pairwise non (weakly) cocycle conjugate, strongly outer actions of $\Lambda$ on $D$. The proof…

We generalize Gruber--Sisto's construction of the coned--off graph of a small cancellation group to build a partially ordered set $\mathcal{TC}$ of cobounded actions of a given small cancellation group whose smallest element is the action…
