We describe both the Bunce-Deddens C*-algebras and their Toeplitz versions, as crossed products of commutative C*-algebras by partial automorphisms. In the latter case, the commutative algebra has, as its spectrum, the union of the Cantor…

When a locally compact group acts on a C*-correspondence, it also acts on the associated Cuntz-Pimsner algebra in a natural way. Hao and Ng have shown that when the group is amenable the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra of the crossed product…

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 associate a $C^*$-algebra to a partial action of the integers acting on the base space of a vector bundle, using the framework of Cuntz--Pimsner algebras. We investigate the structure of the fixed point algebra under the canonical gauge…

In this paper, motivated by the Berger, Coburn and Lebow and Bercovici, Douglas and Foias theory for tuples of commuting isometries, we study analytic representations and joint invariant subspaces of a class of commuting $n$-isometries and…

Given a quantum graph $\mathcal{G}=(B,\psi,A)$, we define a C*-correspondence $E_\mathcal{G}$ over the noncommutative vertex C*-algebra $B$, called the quantum edge correspondence. For a classical graph $\mathcal{G}$, $E_\mathcal{G}$ is the…

Topological quivers generalize the notion of directed graphs in which the sets of vertices and edges are locally compact (second countable) Hausdorff spaces. Associated to a topological quiver $Q$ is a $C^*$-correspondence, and in turn, a…

To every $C^*$ correspondence over a $C^*$-algebra one can associate a Cuntz-Pimsner algebra generalizing crossed product constructions, graph $C^*$-algebras, and a host of other classes of operator algebras. Cuntz-Pimsner algebras come…

We define a categorical framework in which we build a systematic construction that provides generic invariants for C*-algebras. The benefit is significant as we show that any invariant arising this way automatically enjoys nice properties…

Starting from an arbitrary endomorphism \alpha of a unital C*-algebra A we construct a crossed product. It is shown that the natural construction depends not only on the C*-dynamical system (A,\alpha) but also on the choice of an ideal…

These are some notes I wrote for the summer school "Symbolic dynamics and homeomorphisms of the Cantor set" at the University of Copenhagen, 23 - 27 June 2008. The notes contain the definition of the C*-algebra associated to a shift space…

We show that the $\ca$-envelope of the tensor algebra of an arbitrary $\ca$-correspondence $\X$ coincides with the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra $\O_{\X}$, as defined by Katsura \cite{Ka}. This improves earlier results of Muhly and Solel and…

We present a short proof of the gauge invariant uniqueness theorem for relative Cuntz-Pimsner algebras of C*-correspondences.

We say that a contractive Hilbert space operator is universal if there is a natural surjection from its generated C*-algebra to the C*-algebra generated by any other contraction. A universal contraction may be irreducible or a direct sum of…

Cuntz and Li have defined a C*-algebra associated to any integral domain, using generators and relations, and proved that it is simple and purely infinite and that it is stably isomorphic to a crossed product of a commutative C*-algebra. We…

A $C^*$-textile dynamical system $({\cal A}, \rho,\eta,\Sigma^\rho,\Sigma^\eta, \kappa)$ connsists of a unital $C^*$-algebra ${\cal A}$, two families of endomorphisms ${\rho_\alpha}_{\alpha \in \Sigma^\rho}$ and ${\eta_a}_{a \in…

Let \( m, n \in \mathbb{N}_0 \), and let \( X \) be a closed subset of \( \mathbb{T}^{\binom{m+n}{2}} \). We define \( C^{m,n}_X \) to be the universal \( C^* \)-algebra among those generated by \( m \) unitaries and \( n \) isometries…

Reciprocality in Kirchberg algebras is a duality between strong extension groups and K-theory groups. We describe a construction of the reciprocal dual algebra $\widehat{\mathcal{A}}$ for a Kirchberg algebra $\mathcal{A}$ with finitely…

For a closed subgroup of a locally compact group the Rieffel induction process gives rise to a $C^*$-correspondence over the $C^*$-algebra of the subgroup. We study the associated Cuntz-Pimsner algebra and show that, by varying the subgroup…

Cuntz algebras $\mathcal{O}_n$, $n>1$, are celebrated examples of a separable infinite simple C*-algebra with a number of fascinating properties. Their K-theory allows an embedding of $\mathcal O_m$ in $\mathcal O_n$ whenever $n-1$ divides…
