We present a stable uniqueness theorem for non-unital C*-algebras. Generalized tracial rank one is defined for stably projectionless simple C*-algebras. Let $A$ and $B$ be two stably projectionless separable simple amenable C*-algebras with…

Using ideas due to Jean-Luc Sauvageot, we prove the existence of a continuous unital dilation of a CP$_0$-semigroup on a separable W$^*$-algebra. This paper presents the material in the author's Ph. D. thesis (arXiv.org:1304.0134.pdf) with…

Two matrices $A$ and $B$ are called unitary (resp. orthogonal) equivalent if $AU=VB$ for two unitary (resp. orthogonal) matrices $U$ and $V$. Using trace identities, criteria are given for simultaneous unitary, orthogonal or complex…

A classification theorem is obtained for a class of unital simple separable amenable Z-stable C*-algebras which exhausts all possible values of the Elliott invariant for unital stably finite simple separable amenable Z-stable C*-algebras.…

We study group algebras for compact groups in the category of real and complex weakly complete vector spaces. We also show that the group algebra is a quotient of the weakly complete universal enveloping algebra of the Lie algebra of the…

Let A be a unital simple separable C*-algebra. If $A$ is nuclear and infinite-dimensional, it is known that strict comparison is equivalent to Z-stability if the extreme boundary of its tracial state space is non-empty, compact and of…

We consider central extensions $Z\hookrightarrow E\twoheadrightarrow G$ in the category of linear differential algebraic groups. We show that if $G$ is simple non-commutative and $Z$ is unipotent with the differential type smaller than that…

We define E-theory for separable C*-algebras over second countable topological spaces and establish its basic properties. This includes an approximation theorem that relates the E-theory over a general space to the E-theories over finite…

While efficient algorithms are known for solving many important problems related to groups, no efficient algorithm is known for determining whether two arbitrary groups are isomorphic. The particular case of 2-nilpotent groups, a special…

We introduce notions of weak and strong equivalence for non-saturated Fell bundles over locally compact groups and show that every Fell bundle is strongly (resp. weakly) equivalent to a semidirect product Fell bundle for a partial (resp.…

We provide some background on the category of classifiable $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras, whose objects are infinite-dimensional, simple, separable, unital $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras that have finite nuclear dimension and satisfy the universal…

We generalize Kirchberg's weak exactness to inclusions of C*-algebras in von Neumann algebras and study some characterizations and permanence properties which are similar to those of exact groups. We then consider a similar condition to…

Let $M$ and $N$ be two unital JB$^*$-algebras and let $\mathcal{U} (M)$ and $\mathcal{U} (N)$ denote the sets of all unitaries in $M$ and $N$, respectively. We prove that the following statements are equivalent: $(a)$ $M$ and $N$ are…

We study the link between stably finiteness and stably projectionless-ness for $C^*$-algebras of solvable Lie groups. We show that these two properties are equivalent if the dimension of the group is not divisible by $4$; otherwise, they…

Let $\Omega$ be a compact subset of $\mathbb{C}$ and let $A$ be a unital simple, separable $C^*$-algebra with stable rank one, real rank zero and strict comparison. We show that, given a Cu-morphism $\alpha:{\rm Cu}(C(\Omega))\to {\rm…

We show that the class of unital $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras is an elementary class in the language of operator systems. As a result, we have that there is a definable predicate in the language of operator systems that defines the…

The generalization of multiplicative unitary notion from compact quantum groups to compact quantum semigroups is considered. We show why the same construction doesn't work in this case by giving examples of C*-algebras with non-trivial…

We construct an essential extension of $\mathcal K(\ell_2({\mathfrak{c}}))$ by $\mathcal K(\ell_2)$, where ${\mathfrak{c}}$ denotes the cardinality of continuum, i.e., a $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal A\subseteq \mathcal B(\ell_2)$ satisfying the…

In this paper we consider near inclusions $A\subseteq_\gamma B$ of C$^*$-algebras. We show that if $B$ is a separable type I C*-algebra and $A$ satisfies Kadison's similarity problem, then $A$ is also type I and use this to obtain an…

Directly infinite algebras, those algebras, $E$ which have a pair of elements $x$ and $y$ where $1 = xy \neq yx$, are well known to have a sub-algebra isomorphic to $M_\infty(K)$, the set of infinite $\zplus \times \zplus$-indexed matrices…
