To an arbitrary directed graph we associate a row-finite directed graph whose C*-algebra contains the C*-algebra of the original graph as a full corner. This allows us to generalize results for C*-algebras of row-finite graphs to…

There has recently been much interest in the $C^*$-algebras of directed graphs. Here we consider product systems $E$ of directed graphs over semigroups and associated $C^*$-algebras $C^*(E)$ and $\mathcal{T}C^*(E)$ which generalise the…

Given a row-finite $k$-graph $\Lambda$ with no sources we investigate the $K$-theory of the higher rank graph $C^*$-algebra, $C^*(\Lambda)$. When $k=2$ we are able to give explicit formulae to calculate the $K$-groups of $C^*(\Lambda)$. The…

To a higher rank directed graph $(\Lambda, d)$, in the sense of Kumjian and Pask, one can associate natural noncommutative analytic Toeplitz algebras, both weakly closed and norm closed. We introduce methods for the classification of these…

The usual crossed product construction which associates to the homeomorphism $T$ of the locally compact space $X$ the C$^*$-algebra $C^*(X,T)$ is extended to the case of a partial local homeomorphism $T$. For example, the Cuntz-Krieger…

We introduce and analyse the structure of C*-algebras arising from ideals in right tensor C*-precategories, which naturally generalize both relative Cuntz-Pimsner and Doplicher-Roberts algebras. We establish an explicit intrinsic…

Let $E$ be a finite directed graph with no sources or sinks and write $X_E$ for the graph correspondence. We study the $C^*$-algebra $C^*(E,Z):=\mathcal{T}(X_E,Z)/\mathcal{K}$ where $\mathcal{T}(X_E,Z)$ is the $C^*$-algebra generated by…

We define the categorical cohomology of a k-graph \Lambda\ and show that the first three terms in this cohomology are isomorphic to the corresponding terms in the cohomology defined in our previous paper. This leads to an alternative…

We unite elements of category theory, K-theory, and geometric group theory, by defining a class of groups called $k$-cube groups, which act freely and transitively on the product of $k$ trees, for arbitrary $k$. The quotient of this action…

We define an ultragraph, which is a generalization of a directed graph, and describe how to associate a C*-algebra to it. We show that the class of ultragraph algebras contains the C*-algebras of graphs as well as the Exel-Laca algebras. We…

We show that a C*-algebra "looking like" a Cuntz-Krieger algebra is a Cuntz-Krieger algebra. This implies that, in an appropriate sense, the class of Cuntz-Krieger algebras is closed under extensions of real rank zero.

Exotic group $C^*$-algebras are $C^*$-algebras that lie between the universal and the reduced group $C^*$-algebra of a locally compact group. We consider simple Lie groups $G$ with real rank one and investigate their exotic group…

We study a family of C*-algebras generalizing both Katsura algebras and certain algebras introduced by Nekrashevych in terms of self-similar groups.

We present the first examples of higher-rank lattices whose reduced $C^{*}$-algebras satisfy strict comparison, stable rank one, selflessness, uniqueness of embeddings of the Jiang--Su algebra, and allow explicit computations of the Cuntz…

The note presents a further study of the class of Cuntz--Krieger type algebras. A necessary and sufficient condition is identified that ensures that the algebra is purely infinite, the ideal structure is studied, % and applied to semigraph…

We describe a class of rank-2 graphs whose C^*-algebras are AT algebras. For a subclass which we call rank-2 Bratteli diagrams, we compute the K-theory of the C*-algebra. We identify rank-2 Bratteli diagrams whose C*-algebras are simple and…

The construction of the C*-algebra associated to a directed graph $E$ is extended to incorporate a family $C$ consisting of partitions of the sets of edges emanating from the vertices of $E$. These C*-algebras $C^*(E,C)$ are analyzed in…
