Motivated by a question of L. Robert, asking whether $\rm L(T(A)) = Lsc_{C}(T(A))$ for any separable C*-algebra A, we introduce and initiate the study of \emph{tracially reflexive C*-algebras}. We first prove that commutative C*-algebras…

Let $L$ and $M$ be closed, connected, smooth manifolds and let $L \hookrightarrow T^*M$ be an exact Lagrangian embedding. The induced map $L \to M$ is known by earlier work to be a homotopy equivalence. We show that the associated normal…

The uniform tracial completion of a C*-algebra A with compact non-empty trace space T(A) is obtained by completing the unit ball with respect to the uniform 2-seminorm $\|a\|_{2,T(A)}=\sup_{\tau \in T(A)} \tau(a^*a)^{1/2}$. The trace…

Let $G$ be a reductive group in the Harish-Chandra class e.g. a connected semisimple Lie group with finite center, or the group of real points of a connected reductive algebraic group defined over $\R$. Let $\sigma$ be an involution of the…

We define a tracelike transformation to be a natural family of conjugation invariant maps $T_{x,C}: hom_C(x,x) \to hom_C(1,1)$ for all dualisable objects $x$ in any symmetric monoidal infinity-category $C$. This generalises the trace from…

We define and systematically study nonassociative C*-algebras as C*-algebras internal to a topological tensor category. We also offer a concrete approach to these C*-algebras, as G-invariant, norm closed *-subalgebras of bounded operators…

Let G be a compact Lie-group, X a compact G-CW-complex. We define equivariant geometric K-homology groups K^G_*(X), using an obvious equivariant version of the (M,E,f)-picture of Baum-Douglas for K-homology. We define explicit natural…

Let M be a manifold and g a Lie algebra acting on M. Differential forms Omega(M) carry a natural action of Lie derivatives L(x) and contractions I(x) of fundamental vector fields for x \in g. Contractions (anti-) commute with each other,…

We develop a operator algebraic model for twisted $K$-theory, which includes the most general twistings as a generalized cohomology theory (i.e. all those classified by the unit spectrum $bgl_1(KU)$). Our model is based on strongly…

We elaborate the generalizations of the approach to gauge-invariant deformations of the gauge theories developed in our previous work [1]. In the given paper we construct the exact transformations defying the gauge-invariant deformed theory…

Given a unital $C(X)$-algebra $A$ discrete group $\Gamma$ and an action $\alpha: \Gamma\to \text{aut}(A)$ which leaves $C(X)$ invariant and such that $C(X)\rtimes_{\alpha,r} \Gamma$ is simple, and a $2$-cocycle $\omega$, we obtain a…

We define a unified trace form $\tau$ on the cyclotomic Hecke algebras $\mathscr{H}_{n,K}$ of type $A$, which generalize both Malle-Mathas' trace form on the non-degenerate version (with Hecke parameter $\xi\neq 1$) and Brundan-Kleshchev's…

We prove that twisted groupoid C*-algebras are characterised, up to isomorphism, by having Cartan semigroups, a natural generalisation of normaliser semigroups of Cartan subalgebras. This extends the classic Kumjian-Renault theory to…

We generalize the Li-Yang notion of self-similar $k$-graph $(G,\Lambda)$ and its $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal{O}_{G,\Lambda}$ to any finitely aligned $k$-graph $\Lambda$. We then introduce an inverse semigroup model for $\mathcal{O}_{G,\Lambda}$…
