We consider a locally compact Hausdorff groupoid $G$, and twist by a more general locally compact Hausdorff abelian group $\Gamma$ rather than the complex unit circle $\mathbb{T}$. We investigate the construction of $C^*$-algebras in…

Let $G=K\ltimes A$ be the semi-direct product group of a compact group $K$ acting on an abelian locally compact group $A$. We describe the $C^*$-algebra $C^*(G)$ of $G$ in terms of an algebra of operator fields defined over the spectrum of…

In the paper, we give two new characterizations of separable inner quasidiagonal C*-algebras. Base on these characterizations, we show that a unital full free product of two inner quasidiagonal C*-algebras is inner quasidiagonal again. As…

We prove that an amalgamated free product of separable commutative C*-algebras is residually finite-dimensional.

Let $M$ be a compact one--manifold, and let $\mathrm{Diff}^{1+\mathrm{bv}}(M)$ denote the group of $C^1$ orientation preserving diffeomorphisms of $M$ whose first derivatives have bounded variation. We prove that if $G$ is a group which is…

We investigate $C^*$-algebras associated with row-finite topological higher-rank graphs with no source, which are based on product system $C^*$-algebras. We prove the Cuntz-Krieger uniqueness theorem, and provide the condition of simplicity…

Let V(KG) be the normalized group of units of the group ring KG of a non-Dedekind group G with nontrivial torsion part t(G) over the integral domain K. We give a simple method for constructing free objects in V(KG).In particular, we show…

We show that any infinite collection $(\Gamma_n)_{n\in \mathbb N}$ of icc, hyperbolic, property (T) groups satisfies the following von Neumann algebraic \emph{infinite product rigidity} phenomenon. If $\Lambda$ is an arbitrary group such…

We give precise conditions under which irreducible representations associated to stability groups induce to irreducible representations for Fell bundle C*-algebras. This result generalizes an earlier result of Echterhoff and the second…

We prove that the class of crossed product C*-algebras associated with the action of the multiplicative group of a number field on its ring of finite adeles is rigid in the following explicit sense: Given any *-isomorphism between two such…

Given a C*-algebra A with a left action of a locally compact quantum group G on it and a unitary 2-cocycle Omega on \hat G, we define a deformation A_Omega of A. The construction behaves well under certain additional technical assumptions…

We define a broad class of crossed product C*-algebras of the form C(G)xG, where G is a discrete countable amenable residually finite group, and G is a profinite completion of G. We show that they are unital separable simple nuclear…

We initiate the study of C*-algebras and groupoids arising from left regular representations of Garside categories, a notion which originated from the study of Braid groups. Every higher rank graph is a Garside category in a natural way. We…

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 prove that for every $n\geq 2$, the reduced group $C^*$-algebras of the countable free groups $C^*_r(\mathbb{F}_n)$ have strict comparison. Our method works in a general setting: for $G$ in a large family of non-amenable groups,…

Let M be a tracial von Neumann algebra and A be a weakly dense unital C*-subalgebra of M. We say that a set X is a W*-generating set for M if the von Neumann algebra generated by X is M and that X is a C*-generating set for A if the unital…

It has recently been proved that the class of unital exact C*-algebras is closed under taking reduced amalgamated free products. In particular, this implied that the class of exact discrete groups is closed under taking amalgamated free…

We prove that, if a discrete group $G$ is not inner amenable, then the unit group of the ring of operators affiliated with the group von Neumann algebra of $G$ is non-amenable with respect to the topology generated by its rank metric. This…

We prove W$^*$-superrigidity for a large class of coinduced actions. We prove that if $\Sigma$ is an amenable almost-malnormal subgroup of an infinite conjugagy class (icc) property (T) countable group $\Gamma$, the coinduced action…

We study the crossed product $C^*$-algebra associated to injective endomorphisms, which turns out to be equivalent to study the crossed product by the dilated autormorphism. We prove that the dilation of the Bernoulli $p$-shift endomorphism…
