Motivated by the search for new examples of ``noncommutative manifolds'', we study the noncommutative geometry (in the sense of Connes) of the group C*-algebras of various discrete groups. The examples we consider are the infinite dihedral…
Motivated by the search for new examples of ``noncommutative manifolds'', we study the noncommutative geometry (in the sense of Connes) of the group C*-algebra of the three dimensional discrete Heisenberg group. We present a unified…
Motivated by classical facts concerning closed manifolds, we introduce a strong finiteness property in K-homology. We say that a C*-algebra has uniformly summable K-homology if all its K-homology classes can be represented by Fredholm…
We present two applications of explicit formulas, due to Cuntz and Krieger, for computations in K-homology of graph C*-algebras. We prove that every K-homology class for such an algebra is represented by a Fredholm module having finite-rank…
We construct a family of odd, finitely summable Fredholm modules over the crossed product C*-algebra $C(\bd \G)\rtimes \G$ associated to the action of a non-elementary hyperbolic group $\G$ on its Gromov boundary $\bd \G$. These Fredholm…
This research notes is intended to provide a quick introduction to the subject. We expose a K-theoretic approach to study group C*-algebras: started in the elementary part, with one example of description of the structure of C*-algebras of…
In the paper we describe the C*-algebras of noncommutative spherical tight frames over some C*-algebras and then apply to study the noncommutative version of the universal classifying space.
We discuss just infiniteness of C*-algebras associated to discrete quantum groups and relate it to the C*-uniqueness of the quantum groups in question, i.e. to the uniqueness of a C*-completion of the underlying Hopf *-algebra. It is shown…
We investigate complexes of Hilbert C*-modules, which are cochain complexes with (unbounded) regular operators between Hilbert C*-modules as differential maps. In particular, we provide various equivalent characterizations of the Fredholm…
Symmetry groups or groupoids of C*-algebras associated to non-Hausdorff spaces are often non-Hausdorff as well. We describe such symmetries using crossed modules of groupoids. We define actions of crossed modules on C*-algebras and crossed…
We study the Fredholm solvability for a new class of nonlocal boundary value problems associated with group actions on smooth manifolds. Namely, we consider the case in which the group action is defined on an ambient manifold without…
We prove explicit and elementary formulas for the group homology and cohomology of a finite group with coefficients in any module. We describe in elementary terms the cohomology algebra $H^*(G,k)$ as a graded algebra for a finite group $G$…
For a commutative ring $\mathbf k$ with unit, we describe and study various differential graded $\mathbf k$-modules and $ \mathbf k$-algebras which are models for the cohomology of polyhedral products $(\underline{CX},\underline X)^K$.…
In this paper, we introduce C*-algebraic partial compact quantum groups, which are quantizations of topological groupoids with discrete object set and compact morphism spaces. These C*-algebraic partial compact quantum groups are…
Let M be a smooth Fredholm manifold modeled on a separable infinite-dimensional Euclidean space E with Riemannian metric g. Given an (augmented) Fredholm filtration F of M by finite-dimensional submanifolds (M_n), we associate to the triple…
We examine the question of quasidiagonality for C*-algebras of discrete amenable groups from a variety of angles. We give a quantitative version of Rosenberg's theorem via paradoxical decompositions and a characterization of…
Noncommutative geometry is used to study the local geometry of ultrametric spaces and the geometry of trees at infinity. Connes's example of the noncommutative space of Penrose tilings is interpreted as a non-Hausdorff orbit space of a…
In this paper we give an example of a proper standard C*-algebra (a proper C*-subalgebra of B(H) containing C(H)) whose automorphism and isometry groups are topologically reflexive. Furthermore, we prove that in the case of extensions of…
Let $\Omega$ be a tiling space and let $G$ be the maximal group of rotations which fixes $\Omega$. Then the cohomology of $\Omega$ and $\Omega/G$ are both invariants which give useful geometric information about the tilings in $\Omega$. The…
We survey noncommutative spacetimes with coordinates being enveloping algebras of Lie algebras. We also explain how to do differential geometry on noncommutative spaces that are obtained from commutative ones via a Moyal-product type…
