We give a characterization of geometric property (T) for a coarse disjoint union of finite graphs with bounded degree using the idea of noncommutative real algebraic geometry. In the proof, we define a $*$-subalgebra $I_u[X]$ of real…

We define a tracial analogue of the sequentially split $*$-homomorphism between $C^*$-algebras of Barlak and Szab\'{o} and show that several important approximation properties related to the classification theory of $C^*$-algebras pass from…

We introduce a new class of operator algebras -- tracially complete C*-algebras -- as a vehicle for transferring ideas and results between C*-algebras and their tracial von Neumann algebra completions. We obtain structure and classification…

A group is said to be C*-simple if its reduced C*-algebra is simple. We establish an intrinsic (group-theoretic) characterization of groups with this property. Specifically, we prove that a discrete group is C*-simple if and only if it has…

We develop the concept of weak tracial Rokhlin property for finite group actions on simple (not necessarily unital) C*-algebras and study its properties systematically. In particular, we show that this property is stable under restriction…

We introduce the Property of Rapid Decay for discrete quantum groups by equivalent characterizations that generalize the classical ones. We then investigate examples, proving in particular the Property of Rapid Decay for unimodular free…

We define a relative property A for a countable group with respect to a finite family of subgroups. Many characterizations for relative property A are given. In particular a relative bounded cohomological characterization shows that if a…

We characterize the lifting property (LP) of a separable $C^*$-algebra $A$ by a property of its maximal tensor product with other $C^*$-algebras, namely we prove that $A$ has the LP if and only if for any family $(\{D_i\mid i\in I\}$ of…

We define variants of Pisier's similarity degree for unital C*-algebras and use direct integral theory to obtain new results. We prove that if every II$_{1}$ factor representation of a separable C*-algebra $\mathcal{A}$ has property…

We describe representations of groupoid C*-algebras on Hilbert modules over arbitrary C*-algebras by a universal property. For Hilbert space representations, our universal property is equivalent to Renault's Integration-Disintegration…

We prove simplicity of all intermediate $C^*$-algebras $C^*_{r}(\Gamma)\subseteq \mathcal{B} \subseteq \Gamma\ltimes_r C(X)$ in the case of minimal actions of $C^*$-simple groups $\Gamma$ on compact spaces $X$. For this, we use the notion…

Let A be a unital simple direct limit of recursive subhomogeneous C*-algebras with no dimension growth. We give criteria which specify exactly when A has real rank zero, and exactly when A has the Property (SP): every nonzero hereditary…

It is known that a C*-algebra with the Global Glimm Property is nowhere scattered (it has no elementary ideal-quotients), and the Global Glimm Problem asks if the converse holds. We provide a new approach to this long-standing problem by…

We give several simple and easy complements to our recent paper on $C^*$-algebras with the lifting property (LP in short). In particular we observe that the local lifting property (LLP in short) associated to the class of max-contractions…

We introduce the notion of the weak tracial approximate representability of a discrete group action on a unital $C^*$-algebra which could have no projections like the Jiang-Su algebra $\mathcal{Z}$. Then we show a duality between the weak…

We introduce the notion of eigenstate of an operator in an abstract C*-algebra, and prove several properties. Most significantly, if the operator is self-adjoint, then every element of its spectrum has a corresponding eigenstate.

A general method of investigation of the uniqueness property for $C^*$-algebra equipped with a circle gauge action is discussed. It unifies isomorphism theorems for various crossed products and Cuntz-Krieger uniqueness theorem for…

In this paper, we introduce some classes of generalized tracial approximation ${\rm C^*}$-algebras. Consider the class of unital ${\rm C^*}$-algebras which are tracially $\mathcal{Z}$-absorbing (or have tracial nuclear dimension at most…

We introduce the notion of a Tsirelson pair of C*-algebras, which is a pair of C*-algebras for which the space of quantum strategies obtained by using states on the minimal tensor product of the pair and the space of quantum strategies…

We revisit Matui-Sato's notion of property (SI) for C*-algebras and C*-dynamics. More specifically, we generalize the known framework to the case of C*-algebras with possibly unbounded traces. The novelty of this approach lies in the…
