Let $G$ be a linear connected non-compact real simple Lie group and let $K\subset G$ be a maximal compact subgroup of $G$. Suppose that the centre of $K$ isomorphic to $\mathbb{S}^1$ so that $G/K$ is a global Hermitian symmetric space. Let…

Under suitable conditions, a substitution tiling gives rise to a Smale space, from which three equivalence relations can be constructed, namely the stable, unstable, and asymptotic equivalence relations. We denote with $S$, $U$, and $A$…

In this paper, we study multiplicative structures on the K-theory of the core $A:=C^*(E)^{U(1)}$ of the C*-algebra $C^*(E)$ of a directed graph $E$. In the first part of the paper, we study embeddings $E\to E\times E$ that induce a…

Let K be a number field, let A be a finite dimensional semisimple K-algebra and let Lambda be an O_K-order in A. It was shown in previous work that, under certain hypotheses on A, there exists an algorithm that for a given (left)…

Let $G$ be a group and $\ell$ a commutative unital $\ast$-ring with an element $\lambda \in \ell$ such that $\lambda + \lambda^\ast = 1$. We introduce variants of hermitian bivariant $K$-theory for $\ast$-algebras equipped with a $G$-action…

Let $\Gamma$ be a group of type rotating automorphisms of a building $\fX$ of type $\tilde A_n$ and order $q$. Suppose that $\G$ acts freely and transitively on the vertex set of $\fX$. Then the action of $\Gamma$ on the boundary of $\fX$…

Let O be the ring of integers of a number field K. For an O-algebra R which is torsion free as an O-module we define what we mean by a Lambda_O-ring structure on R. We can determine whether a finite etale K-algebra E with Lambda_O-ring…

We compute rationally the topological (complex) K-theory of the classifying space BG of a discrete group provided that G has a cocompact G-CW-model for its classifying space for proper G-actions. For instance word-hyperbolic groups and…

In this paper we describe the C*-algebras associated to the Baumslag-Solitar groups with the ordering defined by the usual presentations. These are Morita equivalent to the crossed product C*-algebras obtained by letting the group act on…

In a recent paper, Pardo and the first named author introduced a class of C*-algebras which which are constructed from an action of a group on a graph. This class was shown to include many C*-algebras of interest, including all Kirchberg…

Given a normal subgroup bundle $\mathcal A$ of the isotropy bundle of a groupoid $\Sigma$, we obtain a twisted action of the quotient groupoid $\Sigma/\mathcal A$ on the bundle of group $C^*$-algebras determined by $\mathcal A$ whose…

We associate to each unital $C^*$-algebra $A$ a geometric object---a diagram of topological spaces representing quotient spaces of the noncommutative space underlying $A$---meant to serve the role of a generalized Gel'fand spectrum. After…

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…

We study the interplay of C*-dynamics and K-theory. Notions of chain recurrence for transformations groups (X,G) and MF actions for non-commutative C*-dynamical systems (A,G) are translated into K-theoretical language, where purely…

In this paper we introduce a homotopy theoretic technique for proving that the $K$-theoretic assembly map is an equivalence. It is an extension of the methods used to prove split injectivity of the assembly and applies to any geometrically…

We show that the semidirect product of a group $C$ by $A*_D B$ is isomorphic to the free product of $A\rtimes C$ and $B\rtimes C$ amalgamated at $D\rtimes C$, where $A$, $B$ and $C$ are arbitrary groups. Moreover, we apply this theorem to…

We appeal to results from combinatorial random matrix theory to deduce that various random graph $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras are asymptotically almost surely Kirchberg algebras with trivial $K_1$. This in particular implies that, with high…

In this paper, we consider the Wiener Hopf algebra, denoted $\mathcal{W}(A,P,G,\alpha)$, associated to an action of a discrete subsemigroup $P$ of a group $G$ on a $C^{*}$-algebra $A$. We show that $\mathcal{W}(A,P,G,\alpha)$ can be…

The multiplicative group of a number field acts by multiplication on the full adele ring of the field. Generalising a theorem of Laca and Raeburn, we explicitly describe the primitive ideal space of the crossed product C*-algebra associated…

A {\it separated graph} is a pair $(E,C)$ consisting of a directed graph $E$ and a set $C=\bigsqcup_{v\in E^0}C_v$, where each $C_v$ is a partition of the set of edges whose terminal vertex is $v$. Given a separated graph $(E,C)$, such that…
