In this note we first study regular $\mathbb{Z}$-graded local rings. We characterize commutative noetherian regular $\mathbb{Z}$-graded local rings in similar ways as in the usual local case. Then, we characterize graded isolated…

We prove the title. This characterizes the Jiang-Su algebra Z as the uniquely determined initial object in the category of strongly self-absorbing C*-algebras.

We prove that a unital simple approximately homogeneous (AH) C*-algebra with no dimension growth absorbs the Jiang-Su algebra tensorially without appealing to the classification theory of these algebras. Our main result continues to hold…

Under mild assumptions, we show that reduced free products and reduced graph products of $\mathrm{C}^\ast$-algebras are selfless in the sense of L. Robert, without assuming the rapid decay property. In particular, our main theorems yield…

We define a normal graph algebra modeled on algebras used in genetics. Although the algebra does not always determine its graph, it often highlights special features. After developing basic properties of the algebra, we examine those of…

Many $W$-algebras (e.g. the $W_N$ algebras) are consistent for all values of the central charge except for a discrete set of exceptional values. We show that such algebras can be contracted to new consistent degenerate algebras at these…

It is shown that the heteroclinic and homoclinic algebras of a generalized one-dimensional solenoid are simple AH-algebras of real rank zero with no dimension growth and a unique trace. In the orientable case they are AT-algebras, and in…

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…

We construct a simple, unital AH algebra which is shape equivalent to its tensor product with any infinite-dimensional UHF algebra, has the same tracial simplex as the said tensor product, and yet is not isomorphic to it. An analogous…

It is shown that the reduced C*-algebra of a nontrivial linear group $\Gamma<GL_{d}(k)$ with trivial amenable radical is selfless. Thus selflessness and simplicity coincide for reduced C*-algebras of linear groups. Similar results are…

If A is a finite-dimensional symmetric algebra, then it is well-known that the only silting complexes in $\mathrm{K^b}(\mathrm{proj}A)$ are the tilting complexes. In this note we investigate to what extent the same can be said for weakly…

We give a construction that takes a simple linear algebraic group $G$ over a field and produces a commutative, unital, and simple non-associative algebra $A$ over that field. Two attractions of this construction are that (1) when $G$ has…

We show that a separable C*-algebra $A$ is $\mathcal{Z}$-stable if and only if its uncorrected central sequence algebra $A' \cap A_{\mathcal{U}}$ is pure, if and only if Kirchberg's central sequence algebra $F(A)$ is pure. More generally,…

We prove that the stable endomorphism algebra of a module without self-extensions over a special biserial algebra is a gentle algebra. In particular, it is again special biserial. As a consequence, any algebra which is derived equivalent to…

We prove the following. Let $R$ be a Noetherian ring, $B$ a finitely generated $R$-algebra, and $A$ a pure $R$-subalgebra of $B$. Then $A$ is finitely generated over $R$.

The main result here is that a simple separable C*-algebra is Z-stable (where Z denotes the Jiang-Su algebra) if (i) it has finite nuclear dimension or (ii) it is approximately subhomogeneous with slow dimension growth. This generalizes the…

We construct a class of new Lie algebras by generalizing the one-variable Lie algebras generated by the quadratic conformal algebras (or corresponding Hamiltonian operators) associated to Poisson algebras and a quasi-derivation found by Xu.…

We prove that for the mixed $q$-Gaussian algebra $\Gamma_{Q}(H_{\mathbb{R}})$ associated to a real Hilbert space $H_{\mathbb{R}}$ and a real symmetric matrix $Q=(q_{ij})$ with $\sup|q_{ij}|<1$, the generator subalgebra is singular.

We construct an example of a simple nuclear separable unital stably finite Z-stable C*-algebra along with an action of the circle such that the crossed product is simple but not Z-stable.

An algebra is said to be a unary Leibniz algebra if every one-generated subalgebra is a Leibniz algebra. An algebra is said to be a binary Leibniz algebra if every two-generated subalgebra is a Leibniz algebra. We give characterizations of…
