We initiate the study of the effective content of $K$-theory for $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras. We prove that there are computable functors which associate, to a computably enumerable presentation of a $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebra $\boldA$, computably…
We construct in this note a unital properly infinite C*-algebra which is not K$_1$-injective.
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…
We continue the study of the effective content of $K$-theory for C*-algebras, with a focus on AF algebras. We show that from a c.e. presentation of an AF algebra it is possible to compute a representation of the algebra as an inductive…
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 construct a simple, separable, unital, and nuclear C*-algebra with weakly unperforated K_0-group which does not absorb the Jiang-Su algebra Z tensorially. As a result, we obtain a stably finite counter-example to Elliott's classification…
We construct uncountably many mutually nonisomorphic simple separable stably finite unital exact C$^\ast$-algebras which are not isomorphic to their opposite algebras. In particular, we prove that there are uncountably many possibilities…
An example is given of a simple, unital C*-algebra which contains an infinite and a non-zero finite projection. This C*-algebra is also an example of an infinite simple C*-algebra which is not purely infinite. A corner of this C*-algebra is…
We establish a computable version of Gelfand Duality. Under this computable duality, computably compact presentations of metrizable spaces uniformly effectively correspond to computable presentations of unital commutative $C^*$ algebras.
We give an example of a simple separable C*-algebra which is not isomorphic to its opposite algebra. Our example is nonnuclear and stably finite, has real rank zero and stable rank one, and has a unique tracial state. It has trivial K_1,…
We define united KK-theory for real C*-algebras A and B such that A is separable and B is sigma-unital, extending united K-theory in the sense that KK\crt(\R, B) = K\crt(B). United KK-theory contains real, complex, and self-conjugate…
In this work, I develop a new view of presentation theory for C*-algebras, both unital and non-unital, heavily grounded in classical notions from algebra. In particular, I introduce Tietze transformations for these presentations, which lead…
In this mostly expository note, we revisit the K\"unneth theorem in $K$-theory of nonnuclear C*-algebras. We show that, using examples considered by Skandalis, there are algebras satisfying the K\"unneth theorem for the minimal tensor…
We study nonunital $C^*$-algebras such that for any element there exists a local unit and prove that in such algebras there are no frames. This fact was previously known only for commutative algebras. Among other results, we establish some…
We give a classification theorem for unital separable simple nuclear $C^*$-algebras with tracial topological rank zero which satisfy the Universal Coefficient Theorem. We prove that if $A$ and $B$ are two such $C^*$-algebras and $$ (K_0(A),…
The Kirchberg Embedding Problem (KEP) asks if every C*-algebra embeds into an ultrapower of the Cuntz algebra $\mathcal{O}_2$. In an effort to provide a negative solution to the KEP and motivated by the recent refutation of the Connes…
We introduce certain $C^*$-algebras and $k$-graphs associated to $k$ finite dimensional unitary representations $\rho_1,...,\rho_k$ of a compact group $G$. We define a higher rank Doplicher-Roberts algebra $\mathcal{O}_{\rho_1,...,\rho_k}$,…
It is proved that the K_0-group of a cluster C*-algebra is isomorphic to the corresponding cluster algebra. As a corollary, one gets a shorter proof of the positivity conjecture for cluster algebras. As an example, we consider a cluster…
This paper characterizes the unital C*-algebra generated by a single invertible element as the unital free product of C[0,1] and C(T). To do this, I develop techniques to split and merge presentations of C*-algebras using free products in…
Building on Lin's breakthrough MIP$^{co}$ = coRE and an encoding of non-local games as universal sentences in the language of tracial von Neumann algebras, we show that locally universal tracial von Neumann algebras have undecidable…
