The category of $C^*$-algebras is blessed with many different tensor products. In contrast, virtually the only tensor product ever used in the category of von Neumann algebras is the normal spatial tensor product. We propose a definition of…

We define spectral freeness for actions of discrete groups on C*-algebras. We relate spectral freeness to other freeness conditions; an example result is that for an action of a finite group, spectral freeness is equivalent to strong…

We prove a version of uniqueness theorem for Cuntz-Pimsner algebras of discrete product systems over semigroups of Ore type. To this end, we introduce Doplicher-Roberts picture of Cuntz-Pimsner algebras, and the semigroup dual to a product…

Given an n x n integer matrix A whose eigenvalues are strictly greater than 1 in absolute value, let \sigma_A be the transformation of the n-torus T^n=R^n/Z^n defined by \sigma_A(e^{2\pi ix})=e^{2\pi iAx} for x\in R^n. We study the…

We study properties of C*-algebras obtained from the nonstandard hull construction (a generalization of the ultraproduct of C*-algebras). Among others, we prove that the properties of being an infinite and a properly infinite C*-algebra are…

Connectivity is a homotopy invariant property of separable C*-algebras which has three notable consequences: absence of nontrivial projections, quasidiagonality and a more geometric realization of KK-theory for nuclear C*-algebras using…

We prove that for every exact discrete group $\Gamma$, there is an intermediate C*-algebra between the reduced group C*-algebra and the intersection of the group von Neumann algebra and the uniform Roe algebra which is realized as the…

We give a new construction of a C*-algebra from a cancellative semigroup $P$ via partial isometric representations, generalising the construction from the second named author's thesis. We then study our construction in detail for the…

We introduce and study two-parameter subproduct and product systems of $C^*$-algebras as the operator-algebraic analogues of, and in relation to, Tsirelson's two-parameter product systems of Hilbert spaces. Using several inductive limit…

In this paper, we study the ideal structure of reduced $C^*$-algebras $C^*_r(G)$ associated to \'etale groupoids $G$. In particular, we characterize when there is a one-to-one correspondence between the closed, two-sided ideals in…

For every $p\geq 2$, we give a characterization of positive definite functions on a free group with finitely many generators, which can be extended to the positive linear functionals on the free group $C^*$-algebra associated with the ideal…

In this note we show that there exist a $2^\mathfrak{c}$-generated free algebra $\mathcal{S} \subset \mathbb{R}^\mathbb{R}$ of Riemann integrable functions and a free algebra $\mathcal{C} \subset \mathbb{R}^{[0,1]}$ of continuous functions,…

We develop a framework suitable for obtaining simplicity criteria for reduced $C^*$-algebras of Hausdorff etale groupoids. This is based on the study of certain non-degenerate $C^*$-subalgebras (in the case of groupoids, the $C^*$-algebra…

We prove a uniqueness theorem and give a characterization of simplicity for Steinberg algebras associated to non-Hausdorff ample groupoids. We also prove a uniqueness theorem and give a characterization of simplicity for the C*-algebra…

We characterise stable finiteness and pure infiniteness of the essential crossed product of a C*-algebra by an action of an inverse semigroup. Under additional assumptions, we prove a stably finite / purely infinite dichotomy. Our main…

We initiate the study of computable presentations of real and complex C*-algebras under the program of effective metric structure theory. With the group situation as a model, we develop corresponding notions of recursive presentations and…

In this paper we show that for an almost finite minimal ample groupoid $G$, its reduced $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebra $C_r^*(G)$ has real rank zero and strict comparison even though $C_r^*(G)$ may not be nuclear in general. Moreover, if we further…

We will show a centrally free action of an amenable rigid C$^*$-tensor category on a properly infinite von Neumann algebra has the Rohlin property. This enables us to prove the fullness of the crossed product of a full factor by minimal…

Let $\mathcal A$ be a separable, unital, approximately divisible C$^*$-algebra. We show that $\mathcal A$ is generated by two self-adjoint elements and the topological free entropy dimension of any finite generating set of $\mathcal A$ is…

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…
