We introduce the notion of confined subalgebras in the context of the group von Neumann algebra. We also define Uniformly Recurrent States -- an operator-algebraic analog of Uniformly Recurrent Subgroups. Using this framework, we show that…
A detailed study of the semigroup $C^\ast$-algebra is presented. This $C^\ast$-algebra appears as a "deformation" of the continuous functions algebra on a compact abelian group. Considering semigroup $C^\ast$-algebras in this framework we…
Given a labeling c of the edges of a directed graph E by elements of a discrete group G, one can form a skew-product graph E cross_c G. We show, using the universal properties of the various constructions involved, that there is a coaction…
Let $\mathbb{H}\trianglelefteq\mathbb{G}$ be a closed normal subgroup of a locally compact quantum group. We introduce a strictly positive group-like element affiliated with $L^{\infty}(\mathbb{G})$ that, roughly, measures the failure of…
The generalization of multiplicative unitary notion from compact quantum groups to compact quantum semigroups is considered. We show why the same construction doesn't work in this case by giving examples of C*-algebras with non-trivial…
The discrete cocompact subgroups of the 5-dimensional Lie group G_53 are determined up to isomorphism. Each of their group C*-algebras is studied by determining all of its simple infinite dimensional quotient C*-algebras. The K-groups and…
We study coactions of finite quantum groupoids on unital $C^*$-algebras and obtain the Tannaka-Krein reconstruction theorem for them.
The equivariant version of semiprojectivity was recently introduced by the first author. We study properties of this notion, in particular its relation to ordinary semiprojectivity of the crossed product and of the algebra itself. We show…
We consider a crossed product of a unital simple separable nuclear stably finite Z-stable C*-algebra A by a strongly outer cocycle action of a discrete countable amenable group \Gamma. Under the assumption that A has finitely many extremal…
A nonzero 2-cocycle $\Gamma\in Z^2(\g,\R)$ on the Lie algebra $\g$ of a compact Lie group $G$ defines a twisted version of the Lie-Poisson structure on the dual Lie algebra $\g^*$, leading to a Poisson algebra $C^{\infty}(\g_{(\Gamma)}^*)$.…
We define a notion of quantum automorphism group of Graph C*-algebras for finite, connected graphs. Under the assumption that the underlying graph does not have any multiple edge or loop, the quantum automorphism group of underlying…
For 0 < s < 1, let phi_s(z)=sz+(1-s). We investigate the unital C*-algebra generated by the semigroup {C_{phi_s} : 0 < s < 1} of composition operators acting on the Hardy space of the unit disk. We determine the joint approximate point…
We show that if $H \leq G$ is a closed amenable and cocompact subgroup of a unimodular locally compact group, then the reduced group C*-algebra of $G$ is not simple. Equivalently, there are unitary representations of $G$ that are weakly…
The quantum analogue of general relativistic geometry should be implementable on smooth manifolds without an a priori metric structure, the kinematical covariance group acting by diffeomorphisms. Here I approach quantum gravity (QG) in the…
We show that if $A$ is a simple (not necessarily unital) tracially $\mathcal{Z}$-absorbing C*-algebra and $\alpha \colon G \to \mathrm{Aut} (A)$ is an action of a finite group $G$ on $A$ with the weak tracial Rokhlin property, then the…
We prove that every coaction of a compact group on a finite-dimensional $C^*$-algebra is associated with a Fell bundle. Every coaction of a compact group on a matrix algebra is implemented by a unitary operator. A coaction of a compact…
The following paper is devoted to the study of type I locally compact quantum groups. We show how various operators related to the modular theory of the Haar integrals on $\mathbb{G}$ and $\widehat{\mathbb{G}}$ act on the level of direct…
For the q-deformation G_q, 0<q<1, of any simply connected simple compact Lie group G we construct an equivariant spectral triple which is an isospectral deformation of that defined by the Dirac operator D on G. Our quantum Dirac operator…
We investigate the tracial states and $\mathbb{G}$-invariant states on the reduced $C^*$-algebra $C_r(\widehat{\mathbb{G}})$ of a discrete quantum group $\mathbb{G}$. Here, we denote its dual compact quantum group by $\widehat{\mathbb{G}}$.…
Consider a projective limit G of finite groups G_n. Fix a compatible family \delta^n of coactions of the G_n on a C*-algebra A. From this data we obtain a coaction \delta of G on A. We show that the coaction crossed product of A by \delta…
