Let $(A,\alpha)$ be a system consisting of a $C^*$-algebra $A$ and an automorphism $\alpha$ of $A$. We describe the primitive ideal space of the partial-isometric crossed product $A\times_{\alpha}^{\textrm{piso}}\mathbb{N}$ of the system by…

We show that a C*-algebra generated by an irreducible representation of a finitely generated virtually nilpotent group satisfies the universal coefficient theorem and has real rank 0. This combines with previous joint work with Gillaspy and…

We compute the K-theory of a collection of C*-algebras, which we refer to as boundary C*-algebras, arising as the crossed product C*-algebras of lattice actions on the maximal Furstenberg boundaries of symmetric spaces of noncompact type.…

We describe simplicity of the Stacey crossed product A\times_\beta \N in terms of conditions of the endomorphism \beta. Then, we use a characterization of the graph C*-algebras C*(E) as the Stacey crossed product…

We introduce and investigate some examples of C$^*$-algebras which are related to multiplication maps in the ring of $p$-adic integers. We find ideals within these algebras and use the corresponding short exact sequences to compute the…

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 give the first examples of (non-amenable group) amenable actions on stably finite simple C*-algebras. More precisely, we give such actions for any countable group in an explicit way. The main ingredients of our construction are the full…

We prove that a number of classes of separable unital C*-algebras are closed under crossed products by finite group actions with the Rokhlin property, including: (1) AI algebras, AT algebras, and related classes characterized by direct…

In this article, we use Exel's construction to associate a C*-algebra to every shift space. We show that it has the C*-algebra defined in [Carlsen and Matsumoto: Some remarks on the C*-algebras associated with subshifts] as a quotient, and…

We define a categorical framework in which we build a systematic construction that provides generic invariants for C*-algebras. The benefit is significant as we show that any invariant arising this way automatically enjoys nice properties…

We study the semicrossed product of a finite dimensional C^*-algebra by two types of commuting automorphisms, and identify them with matrix algebras of analytic functions in two variables. We look at the connections with semicrossed…

By combining R{\o}rdam's construction and the author's previous construction, we provide the first examples of amenable actions of non-amenable groups on simple separable nuclear C*-algebras that are neither stably finite nor purely…

We use a characterization of the graph C*-algebras C*(E) as the Stacey crossed product C*(E)^\gamma \times_{\beta_E} N, to study its ideal properties in terms of the (non-classical) C*-dynamical system (C*(E)^\gamma, \beta_E)

Let $\sS$ be a countable, abelian semigroup of continuous surjections on a compact metric space $X$. Corresponding to this dynamical system we associate two operator algebras, the tensor algebra, and the semicrossed product. There is a…

To a given multivariable C*-dynamical system $(A, \al)$ consisting of *-automorphisms, we associate a family of operator algebras $\alg(A, \al)$, which includes as specific examples the tensor algebra and the semicrossed product. It is…

We investigate C^*-algebras generated by scaling elements. We generalize the Wold decomposition and Coburn's theorem on isometries to scaling elements. We also completely determine when the C^*-algebra generated by a scaling element…

We study the exactness of the reduced crossed product of a semigroup dynamical system and the reduced $C^{*}$-algebra of a product system. We show that for a semigroup dynamical system $(A, P,\alpha)$, under reasonable hypotheses (e.g., $P$…

We study the problem of constructing a globalization for partial actions on *-algebras, C*-algebras and Hilbert modules. For the first ones we give a necessary condition for the existence of a globalization and we prove this conditions 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…

Continuous actions of topological groups on compact Hausdorff spaces $X$ are investigated which induce almost periodic functions in the corresponding commutative C*-algebra. The unique invariant mean on the group resulting from averaging…
