We completely determine the ideal structures of the crossed products of Cuntz algebras by quasi-free actions of abelian groups and give another proof of A. Kishimoto's result on the simplicity of such crossed products. We also give a…

It is shown that if A is an AF algebra then a crossed product of A by the integers can be embedded into an AF algebra if and only if the crossed product is stably finite. This equivalence follows from a simple K-theoretic characterization…

We investigate the structures of crossed products of the Cuntz algebra ${\mathcal O}_\infty$ by quasi-free actions of abelian groups. We completely determine their ideal structures and compute the strong Connes spectra and K-groups.

We introduce the labelling map and the quasi-free action of a locally compact abelian group on a graph $C^*$-algebra of a row-finite directed graph. Some necessary conditions for embedding the crossed product to an $AF$ algebra are…

Let $X$ be a compact metric space and let $\Lambda$ be a $\Z^k$ ($k\ge 1$) action on $X.$ We give a solution to a version of Voiculescu's problem of AF-embedding: The crossed product $C(X)\rtimes_{\Lambda}\Z^k$ can be embedded into a unital…

We study conditions that will ensure that a crossed product of a C*-algebra by a discrete exact group is purely infinite (simple or non-simple). We are particularly interested in the case of a discrete non-amenable exact group acting on a…

Suppose $A$ is a $C^*$-algebra and $H$ is a $C^*$-correspondence over $A$. If $H$ is regular in the sense that the left action of $A$ is faithful and is given by compact operators, then we compute the $K$-theory of $\mathcal{O}_A(H) \rtimes…

We introduce the notion of tracial amenability for actions of discrete groups on unital, tracial C$^*$-algebras, as a weakening of amenability where all the relevant approximations are done in the uniform trace norm. We characterize tracial…

For a number of properties of C*-algebras, including real rank zero, stable rank one, pure infiniteness, residual hereditary infiniteness, the combination of pure infiniteness and the ideal property, the property of being an AT algebra with…

It is shown that the crossed product of a unital AH-algebra with slow dimension growth by an endomorphism is purely infinite when it is simple, provided the endomorphism does not leave a trace state invariant and maps the unit to a full…

Let $X$ be a compact metric space and let $\af$ be a homeomorphism on $X.$ Related to a theorem of Pimsner, we show that $C(X)\rtimes_{\af}\Z$ can be embedded into a unital simple AF-algebra if and only if there is a strictly positive…

Let (A,G,\alpha) be a partial dynamical system. We show that there is a bijective correspondence between G-invariant ideals of A and ideals in the partial crossed product A xr G provided the action is exact and residually topologically…

In the reduced free product of C*-algebras (A,phi)=(A_1,phi_1)*(A_2,phi_2), A is shown to be purely infinite and simple under the hypothesis that A_1 is the crossed product of a C*-algebra by a discrete infinite group, phi_1 is well behaved…

We define spectral freeness for actions of discrete groups on C*-algebras. We relate spectral freeness to other freeness conditions; an example result is that for an action of a finite group, spectral freeness is equivalent to strong…

Motivated by work of Poguntke we study the question under what conditions simple subquotients of crossed products $A\rtimes_{\alpha}G$ by (twisted) actions of abelian groups $G$ are isomorphic to simple twisted group algebras of abelian…

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…

Let F be a finite subgroup of SL_2 (Z) (necessarily isomorphic to one of Z/2Z, Z/3Z, Z/4Z, or Z/6Z), and let F act on the irrational rotational algebra A_{\theta} via the restriction of the canonical action of SL_2 (Z). Then the crossed…

For any central simple algebra over a field F which contains a maximal subfield M with non-trivial F-automorphism group G, G is solvable if and only if the algebra contains a finite chain of subalgebras which are generalized cyclic algebras…

We prove that the crossed product AxG of a unital finitely generated MF algebra A by a discrete finitely generated amenable residually finite group G is an MF algebra, provided that the action is almost periodic. This generalizes a result…

We prove that if a totally disconnected locally compact group admits a topologically free boundary, then the reduced crossed product of continuous functions on its Furstenberg boundary by the group is simple. We also prove a partial…
