Some completely positive maps on reduced amalgamated free products of C*-algebras are constructed; these allow a proof that the class of exact unital C*-algebras is closed under taking reduced amalgamated free products. Consequently, the…

The dissertation focuses on decomposing a group algebra $kG$ over a field of positive characteristic into a direct sum of projective indecomposable modules. Such a decomposition is obtained together with the Artin--Wedderburn Theorem. The…

Given a cocycle on a topological quiver by a locally compact group, the author constructs a skew product topological quiver, and determines conditions under which a topological quiver can be identified as a skew product. We investigate the…

We prove the $K$-theoretic Farrell-Jones conjecture for groups as in the title with coefficient rings and $C^*$-algebras which are stable with respect to compact operators. We use this and Higson-Kasparov's result that the Baum-Connes…

We consider a construction of C*-algebras from continuous piecewise monotone maps on the circle which generalizes the crossed product construction for homeomorphisms and more generally the construction of Renault, Deaconu and…

Spielberg's construction of C*-algebras from left cancellative small categories is a common generalization for most C*-algebras one would consider to come from ``combinatorial data,'' including graph and $k$-graph C*-algebras, Li's…

We present an explicit formula for the $K$-theory of the $C^*$-algebra associated with a relative generalized Boolean dynamical system $(\CB, \CL, \theta, \CI_\af; \CJ)$. In particular, we find concrete generators for the $K_1$-group of…

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…

Let S be a finitely generated subsemigroup of Z^2. We derive a general formula for the K-theory of the left regular C*-algebra for S.

We define and study an analogue of the Baum-Connes assembly map for complex semisimple quantum groups, that is, Drinfeld doubles of $ q $-deformations of compact semisimple Lie groups. Our starting point is the deformation picture of the…

In joint work with M. Hopkins and C. Teleman we find a new description of the Verlinde algebra associated to a compact Lie group. In this expository account we describe twisted K-theory, prove the theorem for the group SU(2), and motivate…

Suppose $\mathcal{G}$ is a second-countable locally compact Hausdorff \'{e}tale groupoid, $G$ is a discrete group containing a unital subsemigroup $P$, and $c:\mathcal{G}\rightarrow G$ is a continuous cocycle. We derive conditions on the…

We propose a generalization of K-theory to operator systems. Motivated by spectral truncations of noncommutative spaces described by $C^*$-algebras and inspired by the realization of the K-theory of a $C^*$-algebra as the Witt group of…

We study the K-theory of the Cuntz-Nica-Pimsner C*-algebra of a rank-two product system that is an extension determined by an invariant ideal of the coefficient algebra. We use a construction of Deaconu and Fletcher that describes the…

The $K$-groups of the crossed product of the rotation C*-algebra $A_\theta$ by free and amalgamated products of the cyclic groups $\mathbb Z_n$, for $n=2,3,4,6$, are calculated. The actions here arise from the canonical actions of these…

We compute the group homology, the topological K-theory of the reduced C^*-algebra, the algebraic K-theory and the algebraic L-theory of the group ring of the semi-direct product of the three-dimensional discrete Heisenberg group by Z/4.…

In this paper, we define the notions of full pro-$C^{*}$-crossed product, respectively reduced pro-$C^{*}$-crossed product, of a pro-$C^{*}$-algebra $A[\tau_{\Gamma}] $ by a strong bounded action $\alpha$ of a locally compact group $G$ and…

We show that if $(A,G,\alpha)$ is a groupoid dynamical system with $A$ continuous trace, then the crossed product $A\rtimes_{\alpha}G$ is Morita equivalent to the C*-algebra $C*(\underline G,\underline E)$ of a twist $\underline E$ over a…

We show that C*-algebras generated by irreducible representations of finitely generated nilpotent groups satisfy the universal coefficient theorem of Rosenberg and Schochet. This result combines with previous work to show that these…

We introduce the concept of Roe C*-algebra for a locally compact groupoid whose unit space is in general not compact, and that is equipped with an appropriate coarse structure and Haar system. Using Connes' tangent groupoid method, we…
